The end result is a great addition to my business that helps all my staff work more efficiently and effectively.
Marcus Fulker, Managing Director, Great Aussie Patios
I was very satisfied with the end result of choosing OneIT. Building custom software can be challenging and time consuming. To grab the vision from my head and to have it work in a practical sense on a computer took some time getting it right. The end result is a great addition to my business that helps all my staff work more efficiently and effectively. David, Yati and the OneIT staff were always very patient and helpful in seeing my vision for this custom software through to completion. I am very happy with the final product that I use all day every day which helps me run my business better than ever.
The challenge
Great Aussie Patios, one of the leading Patio design companies in Perth initially started as a small, family operated business. Hard work and dedication enabled them to grow fast and build their brand name. With the rising demand, Great Aussie Patios was no longer able to proceed with their spreadsheet based job management system which was managed with manual data processing. So the owners decided to boost their business procedures with a fully automated system that can analyze their real time job requirements.
The solution
The OneIT team met with Great Aussie Patios personnel to understand their exact requirements. After several review sessions, we came up with an innovative solution, to capture all their project management workflow activities from beginning to the end. Additionally, the new system consists of a reporting dashboard that can track the key business statistics and metrics through a variety of visual aids like graphs, charts etc.
The benefits
A simpler way to work
Empowered with a powerful, dynamic job management tool, Great Aussie Patios found new ways to manage and improve their incoming patio construction projects easily by accessing real time project details with around the clock access.
