The Stack

What Runs Where

Nine layers, with Builder Prime holding the record. Everything else is either switched on inside it or connected to it.

Construction is one of two industries where this rests on delivered work rather than inference.

System of Record
Builder Prime
Leads, estimates, proposals with signature, scheduling, production and job costing in one record.
Intake
Website and Phone Into Builder Prime
Every enquiry becomes a lead with a source and an owner, never an email.
Estimates
Builder Prime Proposals
Templated, signed electronically, tracked from sent to decided.
Follow-Up
Builder Prime Automation
The estimate that goes quiet gets chased on a schedule, not from memory.
Job Costing
Builder Prime Production
Material, labour, equipment and haul-off against each job, so the next bid is priced from history.
Phone
OpenPhone or CallRail
A company line that rings every owner, with the source on every call.
Photos
CompanyCam
Job photos filed against the job, not the camera roll.
Reviews
Review Automation on Job Close
Fires when the job closes, routed to one platform.
Accounting
QuickBooks
Costs and invoices posted once.

What We Switch On

Inside Builder Prime

  • Lead sources and owners, so every enquiry has both
  • Estimate templates with option pricing, signed on a phone
  • The follow-up sequence on every unanswered estimate
  • Job costing categories that match how the crew actually spends money
  • Change orders built and signed on site
  • The review request when a job closes

What it does not do. Builder Prime is not an accounting system; it hands the numbers to QuickBooks.

The Path

One Job, Start to Finish

  1. The Call

    A call or a form becomes a lead with a source and an owner, whoever was free.

  2. The Estimate

    Priced from history, sent from the phone, signed electronically.

  3. The Follow-Up

    The estimate that goes quiet is chased on a schedule, not from memory.

  4. The Job

    Scheduled, costed as it runs, change orders signed on site.

  5. The Review

    The request fires when the job closes; the photos become the gallery.
