Forward the customer’s email with the photos. Quinn finds the customer, prices the repair from your past jobs and lists what to ask before you go. A click on each line marks the travel and the welding as site work.

Questions
Can I quote site work?

Yes. Mark any line as site work. It stays marked on the work order, the floor screen and in job costing, so you can see what the site part of the job really cost.

Does it work if it is just me?

Yes. One login is enough to quote, track the job and send the invoice to QuickBooks. Add your crew when you are ready.

Can I quote a flat price?

Yes. Any line can be by the hour, by the kg or lb, or a flat price for the lot.

How long does setup take?

Drop in the spreadsheet or price list you quote from today and Quinn fills in your rates, showing where each number came from. Or send your files and Andrew, Quotara’s founder, sets up your shop for you, usually within one business day.

Quote it before you leave the yard.
