Contractor workflow systems

Move estimate requests into jobs, stages, payments, and project history.

Contractors need a clear path from enquiry to site visit, estimate, deposit, scheduling, change orders, photos, milestones, files, and final payment.

Workflow design

Build the system around the operational details.

Concept Demonstration

Contractor job state

Illustrative data only. The demo shows how a contractor workflow can move from estimate to closeout.

Estimate requests New request needs scope review

The enquiry captures service type, location, urgency, photos, and customer notes.

Site visits Visit window proposed

Staff can record access notes, measurements, and constraints before pricing.

Job scheduling Start date waiting on deposit

Approved work moves into a job record with the next milestone.

Crew assignments Lead + helper assigned

Crew notes, site access, and day-of tasks stay visible.

Milestones Rough-in complete / inspection next

Progress status keeps office and field teams aligned.

Deposits Start date waiting on deposit

Deposits and milestone invoices stay attached to the job.

Change orders Change order awaiting approval

Change-order approval can update scope, price, schedule, and client communication.

Progress photos Photos attached to milestone

Field updates become part of the written project history.

Completion records Closeout checklist ready

Completion notes, final invoice, and warranty or support records can be prepared.

How it works

Public request, staff action, owner visibility.

  • Public request captures the job type, site details, photos, and preferred contact window.
  • Office staff schedule site visits, estimate follow-up, deposits, change orders, and crew assignments.
  • Owner view shows jobs by milestone, blocked approvals, unpaid invoices, and completion records.

Implementation model

Reusable foundation, configured to the business.

Kodelamp Flow can provide a maintained starting foundation for common service-business workflows. When requirements need a different shape, Kodelamp can still build purpose-specific screens, records, provider handoffs, and staff views around the same written operating model.
