Integration Hub · Job Management

Run every job end-to-end on the platform your team already knows.

A single workflow from enquiry to invoice to payment — built on top of ServiceM8, Simpro or Tradify, not instead of them.

Most trade businesses have the right tools. They just do not talk to each other — so the same data gets entered three times, jobs slip through, invoices follow weeks after the work, and owners cannot see margin by job type until the year-end review.

Job Management Hub fixes the workflow gap. Fixed-price scoping. The highest-value piece working inside the first month.

  • Halved Invoice-to-payment time

Sound Familiar?

Six common situations we work in. Pick the one that lands closest — we'll show you how we typically untangle it.

Office staff trying to keep track of incoming jobs across phone, email and forms
Jobs come in from too many channels and slip through the cracks

Jobs come in from too many channels and slip through the cracks

Phone calls, web forms, email, repeat-customer asks, Facebook DMs, the boss's mobile. Without a single intake point, some jobs never get logged.

That's lost revenue you do not even know about — and customers who never get called back.

We build a single intake funnel that routes every channel into one pipeline. Web forms create draft jobs automatically. Phone enquiries get a short office-side form. Emails parse into job records. Nothing falls through.

How it connects

One workflow. Every channel in, every system out.

Every job starts somewhere — a phone call, a web form, a repeat customer — and ends somewhere — accounting, payment, a satisfied customer, an updated dashboard. The Hub is the layer in between that makes the journey run on its own.

What we build

The five places we typically close the gap

Each tab is a piece of the workflow most off-the-shelf job platforms half-deliver. Build them in stages — most engagements start with the two that hurt most.

Every enquiry turns into a tracked job

Single intake. Web forms, phone calls, email-to-job, repeat-customer asks and Facebook leads all funnel into one pipeline. Nothing lives in someone's inbox or notepad.

Templated quotes. Quote builder pre-loaded with your assemblies, your supplier-priced materials and your skill-tiered labour rates. The estimator does not rebuild quotes from a blank page.

Acceptance → job. When the customer accepts, the deal converts to a job in ServiceM8, Simpro or Tradify with all the line items, customer details and notes already attached.

A board that understands skill, distance and capacity

Visual board. Drag-and-drop scheduling with capacity gaps visible two to four weeks out. Move jobs between techs without flipping through three calendars.

Skill rules enforced. An apprentice cannot be dispatched alone on notifiable work; a CEC accredited installer is the only one allocated to the solar install. Vet allocations against your licensing matrix automatically.

Customer comms. Booking confirmations, on-the-way SMS, completion notifications. Deputy and Employment Hero feed availability into the board; SMS gateways carry messages to the customer.

Field staff stop calling the office

Offline-capable mobile. Job details, customer history, drawings and scope of works available without signal. Works in switch rooms, basements, plant rooms and rural sites.

Capture as you work. Photos, voice notes, time, materials and digital signatures — all tied to the job record from the device, not transcribed at the office.

Built on what you use. We extend the ServiceM8, Simpro or Tradify mobile app where it does the basics well, and add a thin custom layer where you need niche workflows (CES generation, Bluetooth instrument capture, multi-stage compliance).

Same-day invoicing, no double entry

Job-complete → invoice. Time, materials, travel and call-out fees roll into an invoice draft the moment the job is signed off. Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks integration handle the push.

Pay on the spot. Tap-to-pay on the field device for residential calls. Payment links delivered with the invoice for commercial work. Stripe or Square reconciles transactions back to the job automatically.

Margin in real time. Labour, materials and travel costed against the job as the work happens. The Friday-afternoon reconciliation goes away.

The reporting your platform does not ship with

Margin by job type. Switchboard upgrades vs solar vs maintenance vs test & tag — which work is making money? Margin tracked against estimate per job category, refreshed weekly.

Utilisation and team performance. Billable hours vs available hours per tech. Apprentice utilisation. Time on tools vs travel vs admin. Hire and apprentice-intake decisions made on data.

Forward pipeline. Quote conversion by source, revenue forecast by month, capacity bottlenecks 4–8 weeks out. Built in Power BI, Looker or a bespoke dashboard tuned to how you actually ask questions.

Case study

Electrical contractor: same-day invoicing on a 15-person crew

A Perth-based commercial electrical contractor already running their core job management platform. We added an intake funnel, a CES generation workflow, a builder client portal and a multi-division margin dashboard — without replacing the tool the team used every day. The CES backlog was clear inside the first month; invoice-to-payment time halved by month two.

Where the return comes from

What changes in the first 90 days

Most Job Management Hub engagements pay back the engagement cost inside one to three months. Here is the math, in plain English.

25% more jobs per crew

Skill-aware scheduling, route optimisation and mobile dispatch let the same team run measurably more jobs per week without adding heads.

Invoice-to-payment time halved

Job-complete-to-invoice automation plus payment links on every invoice typically cuts the average gap from 21 days to 7–10. The cashflow lift is immediate.

Zero missed enquiries

Single intake means every channel — phone, web, email, repeat — funnels into one pipeline. No leads forgotten in someone's inbox.

Field staff stop calling the office

Drawings, history, customer notes and forms all available on the device, offline. A minute saved per call across a crew of ten is hours back per week.

Owners see margin weekly

Job profitability, customer LTV, apprentice utilisation, forward pipeline — refreshed continuously. Decisions made on current data, not yearly summaries.

No platform switch required

We extend ServiceM8, Simpro or Tradify rather than replacing them. Your team keeps the tool they already know; the new capability slots in alongside.

Packages

Three ways into Job Management Hub

Start small if the workflow gap is contained. Scale to the full enquiry-to-invoice loop when the team is ready.

Starter Hub — connect what you already use

For: trade businesses with 3–15 staff running ServiceM8, Simpro or Tradify but still rekeying into accounting or chasing payments manually.

What you get: Two to three system connections wired together. Typical combinations: job platform → Xero invoicing → Stripe payment links → automated bank reconciliation. Plus a simple dashboard surface.

Timeline: 3 to 6 weeks. Fixed-price after a 15-minute scoping call. You see the first piece working inside the first fortnight.

Workflow Hub — the full enquiry-to-invoice loop

For: growing operations (15–50 staff) running multiple channels, complex quoting, mixed residential/commercial work, and field crews who need offline mobile.

What you get: Single intake funnel, scheduling layer with skill rules, field app with offline capture, automated invoicing to Xero/MYOB, payment processing, customer-facing portal, and a live dashboard.

Timeline: 8 to 12 weeks delivered in stages. Highest-value piece live inside the first month so the team is using it while later modules are built. Fixed-price.

Custom Business Hub — multi-division, commercial, complex

For: 50+ staff operations with multi-division revenue allocation, builder/strata portals, complex commercial tendering, custom compliance workflows, or legacy systems that need to keep running.

What you get: Bespoke layer architected for your specific operation — multi-division dashboards, builder/strata client portals, complex estimating engines, custom compliance flows, legacy-system bridges.

Timeline: 3 to 6 months in clearly defined stages. Each stage delivers measurable value before the next begins. Fixed-price per stage, with an ongoing support agreement once live.

Multi-division trade operation reviewing operational data

We had three years of CES paperwork sitting in folders and field notebooks. Scheduling was a whiteboard. Invoicing was happening weeks after the work. HELLO PEOPLE built a field app and job management workflow that sits on top of our existing platform. The team kept using what they knew; the new capability just appeared alongside it. Six months later the CES backlog is gone, invoicing is same-day, and we know our margin by job type every week.

FAQs

Common questions about Job Management Hub

We already use ServiceM8 / Simpro / Tradify. Do we need this?

In most cases, no — and we will tell you that. We are not interested in replacing software that is working. Where Integration Hub helps is the 10–30% of your operation that the platform does not handle well: a builder portal, complex commercial quoting, multi-division reporting, a specific compliance workflow, an integration the platform does not offer cleanly. We build that layer on top of your existing tool, not instead of it.

Can we keep our existing job platform?

Yes — that is the whole point. Integration Hub is platform-independent. We extend ServiceM8, Simpro, Tradify, Jobber or even a custom internal system. Your team keeps the tool they know, and the new capability appears alongside it.

How long does a Job Management Hub project take?

A Starter Hub (two or three systems connected) runs 3 to 6 weeks. A Workflow Hub (full enquiry-to-invoice flow with field app, scheduling and reporting) runs 8 to 12 weeks. A Custom Business Hub (multi-division, commercial portals, complex workflows) runs 3 to 6 months in stages. The highest-value piece is always live inside the first month.

How are projects priced?

Fixed-price after a 15-minute scoping call followed by a deeper requirements session. You know the cost before any code is written. No hourly billing that drifts; no surprises at the end. Larger Custom Business Hubs are priced per stage, so you can adjust scope between stages.

What if our field staff are not tech-savvy?

The field apps we build are designed for someone wearing gloves and standing on a ladder. Big buttons, minimal typing, voice notes, camera-first photo capture, offline by default. If the technician will not use it, we have wasted your money — so we test with real field staff before launch.

Do we own what is built?

Yes. Every Hub engagement results in working software, integrations and dashboards that you own outright. No per-seat SaaS subscription to us. Optional ongoing support agreement covers bug fixes, platform-update tracking and small feature additions — but the system is yours.

What happens when our requirements change?

Because the Hub is built around your workflow rather than a fixed product, additions and adjustments are straightforward. New integrations, new dashboards, new field forms — added as scoped changes. Many of our clients run on a small monthly support agreement that includes ongoing improvements.

Can you integrate with our specific custom or legacy system?

Yes. If the system stores data — whether through an API, a database, or even structured files — we can almost always connect it. We have integrated Access databases, VB6 desktop apps, old SQL systems and bespoke internal platforms that no off-the-shelf connector touches. See the Legacy Software & App Rescue Hub if your starting point is an old system that needs modernising first.
