The problem

What this is costing you right now.

Four places the margin leaks today, and what each one looks like once it is fixed.

Margin is invisible

Averaged costing hides the parts that lose money on every run, and the only signal is a whole year that felt busy but finished thin.

With ShopData 360

Job costing built into QuickDuct IF

Repeat work requoted

The same fitting gets estimated from scratch every time because nothing was saved, and every quote lands on a slightly different number.

With ShopData 360

Part history and copy functions reused

Waste compounds

On thin margins a few percent of yield is the difference between profit and busy, and manual nesting gives that away every sheet.

With ShopData 360

Common line cutting and auto-nesting for yield

Pricing lags cost

Material moves, prices do not, and nobody notices for a full quarter. By then the jobs are already quoted, booked and out on the floor.

With ShopData 360

Extensive part history with the ability to refresh quote rates

The workflow

How the job runs instead.
