“We already have a job management platform, so why would we need custom development?” It’s a great question, and one we hear a lot!

The answer is that most job management software gets you 80% of the way there. But construction is full of niche needs, and that last 20% is where small businesses end up battling spreadsheets on top of the system they’re already paying for.

Maybe it’s a specific type of report. Maybe it’s an easy way to get take-off or invoicing info straight into the system. Whatever it is, custom development bends your software to fit the way you work, rather than the other way around.

And it’s a really affordable alternative to the big stuff: no switching platforms, no huge upheaval, no retraining the whole team. You keep what’s working, fix what isn’t, and you’ve got our support behind you as you grow.

Kev, our Tech Development Lead, breaks it down in this wee video 👇

Check out our newest case study on how an Auckland landscape contractor swapped an oversized platform for a practical system that captures the data they need for better reporting.

Procore no more. As WorkflowMax platinum partners, we made sure Modern Environments got a system they'll actually use.

We've had a few queries around the custom development aspect of how we can help you do more with your job management software, so we thought we'd do a mini series answering some of those key questions.

Kev is our Tech Development Lead and is the man to go to if you have any questions about affordable solutions to common problems.

If you're struggling with workarounds because your trade or service area needs a specific tool, and the current system you're using doesn't quite do the job... We can probably help with that!

Check out our wee video, where Kev explains a couple of recent bits of work we've done to help our clients do more & earn more!

A little BTS of what's coming your way soon. We're planning a little FAQ series around custom dev and what that looks like alongside your current job management solution. So watch this space 👀

Those pesky workarounds that add work to your day? Well, they can often be solved with a super affordable little bit of dev that sits alongside what you're using... make your software work for you, so it becomes a lot more construction friendly.

From take-off to invoicing, we got you!

Kia ora, and welcome to all our new followers! 👋

Lots of new faces lately, so here's a quick refresher on who we are and our why!

We're ConTech Solutions, a Kiwi construction tech consultancy based in Wellington and Auckland, helping builders, contractors, PMs and the wider industry across NZ and Australia.

We serve one purpose: to help construction SMEs reduce admin, achieve more action and more profit, all while reducing stress.

We swap manual admin for digital workflows that cut overhead and reduce risk, streamlining your processes from take-off through to invoicing and beyond.

With custom reporting, you see your business at every level (job, team and company), all focused on your bottom line. That way you can make the best decisions for your business, whether that's saving money, going for growth or just getting some valuable time back.

And if your software doesn't fit right out of the box, we can help with that too.

Our "why" is your wellbeing. 🧡

Mental health in construction is a growing concern across NZ and Australia, and admin overload is one of the biggest culprits. When you and your team aren't buried in paperwork or chasing info across five different platforms, you get your headspace, and your evenings, back. Better systems mean less stress, and that's the real win.

Are you a builder, contractors, subbie, or even construction adjacent?

🤔 Thinking about job management software?

Still running quotes in a spreadsheet, jobs in a notebook and invoices from a template? Or juggling disjointed systems and manually piecing together where your jobs are at and whether you're actually making money? Let's get your sh*t together. 💪 One system gives you real-time reporting on job status, business health and your bottom line, so you know where every job sits and what it's earning before it's finished!

WorkflowMax pulls it into one system: quote to job to invoice, with time tracking from site, purchase orders tied to job costs and a straight sync with Xero.

Already using WorkflowMAX?
Here's the thing: most businesses only use a fraction of what it can do. Are you:
✅ Tracking costs and time by phase (groundworks, framing, fit-out)?
✅ Invoicing progress claims, milestones or % of quote straight from job data?
✅ Seeing real profitability by job type, before the job finishes?
✅ Letting your crew log time from their phones, with no Friday timesheet chase?

If you're not sure, that's exactly what we're here for.

Here's what we do:
🚧 Map your workflow and set WorkflowMAX up around how you actually operate
in our 300-Point Account Health Audit to find the gaps, under-used features and inefficiencies quietly costing you time and money
🚧 Help you pick the right package (Essentials, Pro or Advanced) for your team size
🚧 Ongoing support, from a Platinum WorkflowMAX Partner with offices in Auckland and Wellington

One of our clients saved 30 hours of admin a week and saw a 25:1 ROI. Another moved from basic use to phase-level tracking and real profitability reporting.

Off-the-shelf isn't always enough. Have you considered that some cost effective custom development could help you close the gaps left with your out-the-box job management?

🚧 Document generation - proposals, contracts, or compliance paperwork that needs to pull job-specific data automatically instead of being retyped every time, or templates and form control to lessen poor data hygiene from a larger team.

🚧 Cross-platform handoffs - job management, accounting, and procurement tools that don't talk to each other natively.

🚧 Multi-entity or multi-territory reporting - businesses that have outgrown what a single default report can show them or can’t see the bigger picture across what they would consider many ‘sources of truth’.

🚧 Contract and procurement workflows - tools that can automate the admin around executing contracts post-tender, which takes half a day of document collation, when it could be turned into a few clicks.

There’s all sorts of annoying little quirks where you might be sitting thinking, “I wish the system would just work the way I want it to!” - well wonder no more - because there’s probably a very simple structurally sound bridge that we can build to help you do more, and earn more.

With the cost of fuel spiking yet again - we understand how that uncertainty around fuel disruption can affect your construction business day to day.

Whilst we might not be able to single handedly reopen the Strait of Hormuz - we have got a guide that's complete free, and might give you some helpful insights during these trying times!

🚧 Can NZ contractors recover fuel cost increases under NZS 3910?

🚧 What about fluctuations clauses, change in law, the National Fuel Plan?

🚧 and how do you manage risk across the subcontract chain?

New shirt alert! We've been loving having Kev onboard as our newest addition to the team, and it was a good excuse to get some new threads on the go! 👀

While we've got your attention though - let's talk about something we're genuinely proud of: helping construction businesses fix the stuff their software just won't do.

If your job management system handles the basics fine, but then there's that one thing - the report you wish existed, the manual workaround you've built because two systems won't talk to each other, the spreadsheet you're still patching things into because the software doesn't quite fit how your business actually runs... we can probably help!

And the good news is, the fix is usually a lot smaller (and more affordable) than people expect.

We usually end up recommending a targeted bit of custom dev built around your specific gap:

🚧 Better reporting - rolled up across jobs, teams, or territories, however you actually need to see it

🚧 Systems that talk to each other - so a job created once flows through to invoicing and reporting without re-entering everything

🚧 Smarter document generation - contracts, proposals, compliance paperwork that pulls job data automatically instead of being retyped every time

If you're currently working around your software instead of it working for you, get in touch - we'll have an honest chat about whether it needs custom development or just a smarter setup.
