Switch To A Commercial-Built Platform

Advanced project efficiency & planning

Made easy with BuildOps features that cater to large-scale projects and high-volume work:

Deep insights, especially project finances - Project financial health and long-term timeline tracking keeps your projects on budget
Import & update price books - Import material prices to keep them standard across all projects, without having to manually enter new prices

User interface for high-volume environments - Modern and intuitive, with the ability to customize so many views and features to your workflows

Enhanced work tracking

Simpro doesn’t offer the advanced work tracking features that empower commercial contractors and large-scale projects, but with BuildOps:

Service Agreement automation - Track all aspects of service agreements and analyze them to offer better maintenance services
Technician Recommendations - Your techs can record recommended work right in their app, which you can turn into Quotes and then approved work

Labor hour allocation & accurate time tracking - Techs record work done in the app, with geotag locations and timestamps, all reviewable and ready to approve by office staff

Features for multiple locations

Commercial work often involves serving customers with multiple properties, or operating out of multiple offices yourself. BuildOps has what you need to do that efficiently:

Multiple visit tracking for single tasks - Full property and visit history when performing maintenance bring consistency to project history
Easier accounting - Centralized across multiple business locations with only one Quickbooks instance, integrated in the platform
More efficient scheduling & dispatching - Filter your schedule by office location or department to dispatch smarter and save time

A ‘one and done’ tool won’t scale with you

Commercial service usually isn’t just one visit, and then you’re done. Your projects require multiple visits, sometimes to and from multiple properties and locations, and Knowify doesn’t have the functionality to enable that kind of complex work.

BuildOps on the other hand has detailed property visit history capable of tracking multiple visits and locations, and offers scheduling by location, so you can dispatch more efficiently when you have multiple office locations.

BuildOps is the only field service management software that was built for commercial contractors, and continues to develop with them in mind, to make sure we offer the tools and features specifically for commercial. If you’re in commercial, stop stuffing your workflows into a tool that’s not built for you, and switch to BuildOps.

Rabine Group

"With BuildOps, we'll be able to consolidate our data between all the service companies using that system and make better decisions with that data as we continue to grow."

Art Hubbard

Hubbard Mechanical

"I honestly do not know how we dispatched before BuildOps."

Austin Hamlin

Certified Fire

"There were times we would get 2-3 months behind with the bulk of our service billing. And once that got billed out we weren't capturing everything that could get billed."

Beth Morris

JL Minter

“Prior to BuildOps, scheduling was done manually. Journeyman workers and apprentices would clock into the wrong jobs. Purchase orders were pieces of paper clipped to tickets.”

Chris Howard

Northwest Mechanical Group

“Before we knew it, we were seeing quicker turnaround times on job closeout and a huge improvement in the time it took for quotes to be accepted by our customers.”

Harris Clark

Owen Hughes

“ServiceTitan is the big one on the residential side, but we knew we needed something that catered specifically to a commercial workflow. BuildOps really helped us consolidate all of our operational needs into a single platform."

Ric Fegurgur

Holmes Electric

"Our project managers can be on vacation, home sick...and our operations are seamless to our customers."

Toby Mitchell

Classic Electric and Consulting

“We were using a ton of different software solutions and still doing a lot of stuff on paper, which was extremely time-consuming. This was especially true with double entries, where there’s always a risk of making mistakes.”

Scott Fuksa

Jackson Mechanical

"Before BuildOps, we had these different colored folders. And if something wasn’t on the original ticket, it would get lost. We were probably bleeding a ton of money, and just didn't know it at the time."

Stephanie Hubbard

Hubbard Mechanical

"We experienced recurring outages. And the one-size-fits-all approach certainly did not meet our needs.”

Alberto Gomez

Orion Services Group

The BuildOps team is helping us deploy best-in-class software to help optimize operations in our companies and unlock efficiency both in the field and the office. We believe this will greatly help us address the labor shortage both in. We couldn’t have asked for a better solution and software partner.
