Planned
Order & project management
Organise enquiries, quotations, customer orders, projects and sites in one place.
TOM · Task Operations Management Coming Soon · In development
The operations software for modern trade businesses.
From enquiry through scheduling to handover – organise jobs, staff, material and sites in one central system.
TOM is currently in development. Planned for release at a later date.
Stay up to datePlanned workflow Planned
One job, from the first phone call to the final costing.
POM follows a production line. TOM follows a project – and that starts long before the site and only ends after handover.

Envisaged Planned
Everything on the same job.
The job is the common thread: appointment, team, material, photos, hours and subcontracted work all hang from it – instead of sitting in five separate systems.
The illustration below shows planned content and is not a screenshot of a finished program.
Planned functional areas Planned
What TOM is intended to cover.
The following areas are envisaged – as with POM, as interlocking modules that can be added one by one. They describe what we are working on, not what is usable today.
Planned
Scheduling
Plan employees, teams, appointments, sites and resources clearly. Drag and drop is intended to play a central role.
Planned
Employees & teams
Manage staff, working hours, absences, qualifications and team assignments.
Planned
Mobile job handling
Field staff see their jobs for the day on a phone or tablet: start a job, record times, take photos, open documents, log material, add notes, fill in forms, close the job, capture a customer signature.
Planned
Material & procurement
Assign material to a job or project and see whether the parts you need will arrive in time.
Planned
Subcontracting
Organise external services inside the project – electrician to scaffolder, metalworker to galvaniser, joiner to paint shop. The job stays traceable even when steps run outside.
Planned
Documentation
Attach photos, drawings, documents, checklists and forms directly to the job or project.
Planned
Time recording
Book working hours straight onto a job or site.
Planned
Post-calculation
Compare planned against actual times and costs.
Planned
Analytics
Evaluate job duration, staff hours, productivity, utilisation, project costs, contribution margin, target vs. actual times, material costs and subcontracted work.
