Common Builds
Solutions we build again and again.
Every business is different, but the underlying problems repeat. Here's what we build most often, and what it actually looks like.
01
Executive dashboards
Owners and finance leads end up stitching together numbers from QuickBooks, a POS system, and a handful of spreadsheets every week just to answer 'are we doing okay?' We build a single dashboard, pulling from the systems you already use, that answers it automatically.
- checkRevenue and margin trends by product, location, or channel
- checkExpense tracking with alerts when a category runs hot
- checkEmployee expense management with approval status in one view
- checkInventory levels and demand forecasting so you order before you run out
02
Team collaboration space & knowledge hub
When process knowledge lives in someone's head, a stack of Google Docs, and three Slack threads, training new hires and staying consistent gets expensive. We build a lightweight internal hub scoped to how your team already talks and works, not a bloated wiki nobody opens.
- checkSearchable SOPs and playbooks tied to real workflows
- checkProject or client status boards everyone can see at a glance
- checkOnboarding hub for new hires with role-specific checklists
- checkDecision log so 'why did we do it this way' has an answer
03
Field, intake & order-entry tools
Generic form tools break down once you need conditional logic, offline capture, or a handoff into your other systems. We build intake and order-entry tools shaped around your actual process, on a phone or tablet, that feed straight into what happens next.
- checkMobile intake forms for field techs, inspectors, or delivery crews
- checkOrder-entry tools that check inventory and pricing in real time
- checkClient intake that routes straight to the right team member
- checkOffline-capable capture that syncs once back in signal
04
Automated reporting & alerts
Most reporting is someone manually pulling numbers on a recurring basis. We automate the pull, the formatting, and the delivery, and add threshold alerts so you hear about a problem the day it starts, not the day it becomes a crisis.
- checkWeekly or monthly reports delivered on a schedule, no manual pull
- checkThreshold alerts (low stock, missed SLA, budget overrun) to Slack or email
- checkAnomaly flags when a number moves outside its normal range
- checkRoll-up summaries for owners who don't want to open a dashboard
05
Vendor & supplier management
Vendor relationships are usually managed across email, a filing cabinet, and memory. We build a tool that tracks who you work with, what you've agreed to, and how they're actually performing, so renewal and sourcing decisions are based on data.
- checkVendor scorecards on price, lead time, and reliability
- checkContract and compliance document tracking with renewal reminders
- checkPurchase order history in one searchable place
- checkSide-by-side comparisons when it's time to re-source
06
Workflow & approval automation
Approval chains, whether it's PTO, purchases, or client sign-off, tend to live in inboxes and get lost. We build routing logic that moves a request to the right person automatically, tracks where it's stuck, and notifies everyone the moment it moves.
- checkPTO and expense approval chains with automatic routing
- checkPurchase approval workflows tied to budget or spend limits
- checkClient or vendor sign-off tracking with automatic reminders
- checkEscalation rules when a request sits too long
