Facade Systems
Facade Systems: projects and progress billing, stock and warehouse, customer accounts and e-Invoice.
Challenges
- Facade m² does not match the panel and glass order, so waste is high.
- Scaffold rental time is not posted to the job, so the cost of delay stays invisible.
- The assembly crew's floor-by-floor progress is not tracked.
- Glass and profile batch numbers are not kept, so a warranty claim cannot be evidenced.
Workflows
From survey to order
- The facade is split into floors and grid lines and measured in m².
- Panel, glass and profile requirements are computed from the survey.
- The order goes to the supplier with a batch number.
Scaffolding and assembly
- Scaffold erection date and rental period are posted to the job.
- Assembly progress is posted as a percentage per floor.
- A completed facade is closed with handover minutes.

FAQ
Can I derive the order from the facade survey?
Yes — m² measured per floor and grid line produces panel, glass and profile requirements directly.
Can I measure the waste rate?
Yes — ordered and installed quantities are compared and the waste is reported.
Can I post scaffold cost to the job?
Yes — the rental period is tied to the job and the cost of delay shows in the report.
Can I track assembly progress per floor?
Yes — each floor holds its own percentage and daily assembly m² is computed.
Can I retain the glass batch number?
Yes — the batch number stays in the stock and assembly records and serves as evidence in a warranty claim.
