06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your plumbing supplier: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things plumbing suppliers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can homeowners share selections with their plumber?
Yes. Selections made in the showroom can be shared with the plumber's account.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your plumbing supplier. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Can it connect to our inventory and accounting?
Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Cin7, Unleashed, Xero and MYOB so orders, stock and invoices flow through on their own.
Can trade customers see their own pricing?
Yes. Each account logs in to its own price list, order history and reorder button, with credit terms and invoices handled automatically.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most plumbing suppliers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
