Software for installation companies.From quote to invoice, without retyping.
One system for your quotes, planning, job sheets and materials. Software for installation companies that fits the way you work, not the other way around.
Ripal
Business software
Sound familiar?
Where do things get stuck for an installer?Between the site and the office.
HVAC, plumbing, electrical or heat pumps: the work differs, the bottlenecks are the same.
The quote in Excel
Every quote is built from scratch, and whether the margin is right, you only see afterwards.
The planning on a whiteboard
One person knows who is where. A change means picking up the phone.
The job sheet on paper
Filled in in the van, retyped days later, and the invoice waits.
Materials without an overview
Nobody knows what is in the van, so things get ordered twice.
Maintenance that gets forgotten
Contracts and inspections sitting in a folder, until the customer calls.
What is inside
What is in software for installation companies?One job, from start to finish.
Each step can start on its own. You begin with whatever takes the most time today.
Maintenance and inspections
For each installation, what was fitted and when the next service is due.
Invoicing
A completed job sheet flows through to your accounting, without retyping.
Package or custom
When does custom software pay off?And when will a package do?
There are good packages for installers. We will tell you honestly when that is enough.
A package will do if
- you have a small team with a simple way of working.
- your work fits the steps the package provides.
- you do not need to connect to other systems.
Custom pays off if
- your way of working differs from what a package provides.
- you are currently gluing three or more packages together.
- you follow up maintenance contracts and inspections in your own way.
- external staff or customers may only see their own jobs.
- you want to own the software and the data.
Proof, not promises

A tablet app that works with work gloves on and keeps running offline, and external staff who only see their own job through a personal link.
In practice
How we did it at IBS
At IBS we started with the core of the work on site: a mobile work order, signature and PDF. Preventive maintenance and a customer login are part of that first version.

Questions
What installers ask us.About packages, integrations and maintenance.
Usually a mix: a quoting program, a planning in Excel or on a whiteboard, job sheets on paper or in a separate app, and an accounting package. Each piece works, but nothing talks to anything else, so the same job gets typed in three times. Custom software for installation companies brings those steps together in one system.
For a small team with a simple way of working, a package is often enough, and then we will say so. Custom pays off once your way of working differs, you are gluing several packages together, or you want to follow up maintenance contracts and inspections the way you do it. Read more about it under custom software.
We look at which data from the job sheet needs to go to your accounting and what the package allows. We also agree who checks the data before it is used for invoicing.
If offline entry is needed, we include it in the scope. Your team then records on the device. The office receives the data after syncing, as soon as there is a connection.
Yes. Every installation gets a record of what was fitted, when the next service or inspection is due, and what happened last time. Whatever is due soon ends up in the planning automatically.
No. We start with the part that takes the most time today, often the job sheet or the planning, and expand when needed. Per phase at a fixed price, and after each phase you decide.
