Landscaping
Built for landscaping and garden care
Landscaping crews lose hours to paperwork that should already be done. Quotes sit in a notebook, the recurring round lives in someone's head, and invoices go out a week after the job. We build one system that handles quote, job, crew, and invoice from a single record, with a mobile app the team will actually open.
*Quotes lost, rounds forgotten, invoices late.*
Landscaping runs on memory and goodwill until it does not. The quote you scribbled at the Tuesday walk-through sits in a notebook on the ute dashboard. The recurring fortnightly round at the Yarralumla property lives in the foreman's head, and the foreman is on leave next week.
Invoices go out when someone has time on Friday night, which means some weeks they do not go out at all. Materials get bought on the company card without anyone matching them back to a job, so you find out at tax time which sites lost money.
Then there is the seasonal handover. Spring contracts roll into summer schedules, autumn brings hedge work, and winter is pruning and planning. Without a system, every season change is a manual rebuild of the calendar. Clients drop off because nobody followed up at renewal time.
The crew on the ground is fine. The work is good. The bottleneck is the office, and the office is usually one person trying to do quotes, payroll, scheduling, and chasing late payers between phone calls. The business cannot grow past that one person without a different operating system underneath it.
*One pipeline from quote to invoice.*
We build a single landscaping operations system that handles the quote, the recurring contract, the crew run sheet, and the invoice from one record. No double entry, no chasing crews for sign-off photos, no missed renewals when spring hits.

Recurring care
We keep the engine tuned each month. Schedule changes for weather windows, new service lines for hedge work or turf renovation, updated pricing tables, and crew onboarding flows when you hire. We monitor quote-to-job conversion, average ticket size, and recurring contract retention. When a pattern shows up, we adjust the system. Your office stays small while the route list grows.
*A day on the route, on one screen.*
Six in the morning, the foreman opens the crew app. The day's run sheet is already there, ordered by suburb, with drive time built in. Each job shows the gate code, the dog warning, the bin location, and a photo from last visit so they know what good looks like.
At the first property the crew taps start. Two photos before, the mow and edge happens, two photos after. If they used extra mulch on the back bed, they bump the quantity on the material list. Tap complete. The invoice generates in the office system, the client gets a job-done SMS with the photos, and the next address loads.
Midday a thunderstorm warning hits the Bureau feed. The system flags three afternoon properties as weather-affected and drafts reschedule messages for your approval. One tap sends them. The crew gets a revised run sheet on the same screen, no phone calls, no confused clients.
By five the day's invoices are sent, the photos are attached, materials are deducted from stock, and tomorrow's run sheet is built. The office did not chase a single crew member. The owner sees revenue, hours worked, and gross margin per job on one dashboard, with the week's renewals already queued for review.
Before you brief us.
We do both one-off jobs and weekly maintenance rounds. Can the same system handle both?
Yes. One-off quotes flow through a standard pipeline with a single invoice at completion. Maintenance rounds sit on a recurring schedule with auto-generated visits, fixed monthly billing or per-visit invoicing, and a renewal flow at season change. The crew app shows both job types on the same daily run sheet so your team works one screen, not two.
Our crews are not great with apps. Will they actually use this?
The crew view is built for gloves and sun glare. Big tap targets, three buttons per job (start, photos, complete), and offline mode for rural properties. We test it on the phones your team already uses, not a demo device. If a crew member can take a photo and tap done, they can run the day.
What happens with seasonal contracts when summer ends?
The system flags expiring contracts 30 days out and drafts a renewal email with the next-season schedule and any price adjustment. The client clicks accept, the contract rolls over, and visits populate the calendar. Non-responders go into a follow-up sequence. You stop losing clients to admin gaps between seasons.
Can we track materials like mulch and fertiliser against specific job sites?
Yes. Each job pulls from a material list with default quantities by service type. Crews adjust on site if a property needed more mulch than quoted. Costs flow through to job profitability reports so you see which sites and which service lines actually pay. Reordering thresholds trigger supplier emails before you run out.
