Customer problems:

Main target audience: SME, the owner of a construction or manufacturing company that has problems with accounting of tools, consumables and materials

Actual problems:

- theft, loss of equipment and tools

- the impossibility of tracking downtime and the movement of goods and materials

- additional costs for the purchase of tools, goods and materials

On average, a construction company loses between 10,000-40,000 dollars a year due to lack of proper accounting. The service itself costs from $10-100 per month, which allows any small / medium business to implement it very quickly and solve the problems.

The Solution:

We offer companies to use an integrated approach in accounting:

  1. To mark valuables
  2. To use a mobile application for employees, make transfers, write-offs, inventory.
  3. To monitor all the analytics, download reports on the site or in the web application.

As a result, the business owner or responsible person can manage their assets at any time, from any device, see the current balances, who is responsible for inventories and where it is located.
