What we built
What we built for Brady
A products-and-projects site with quote requests and contractor bid requests (with plan uploads), and a back office for estimates customers accept online, clients, projects, a team calendar and email that goes out from each employee's own mailbox.
A separate path for contractors
General contractors get their own page with a bid request form that takes the glazing scope, bid due date, a link to plans, and the plan files themselves. Bids land in their own pipeline in the back office, apart from homeowner quote requests.
Estimates the customer can accept by email
The office builds branded estimates in the admin panel and emails them. The customer can accept or decline straight from the email, and every send is logged on the record.
Email goes out from each employee's own mailbox
Each staff member connects their own work mailbox, so email goes out from their own address and shows up in their own Sent folder.
Project management for the crew, not just the office
The back office tracks projects, daily field logs, time entries, change orders, material orders, and budget lines, and has an executive dashboard for money, deliveries, and job profitability. Crew members get a portal of their own for the jobs they work on.
The owner edits the site without a developer
The featured projects and the job site photo gallery are managed from a Website Content page in the admin panel. If nothing has been published yet, the site falls back to built-in content, so it is never empty.
The website and the back office, one system
What customers see, and what the team signs in to every morning. Forms on the site land straight in the back office.

Estimates

Project pipeline (lead to complete), phase gates (contract/NTP, field measure, shop drawings, submittal approval, release to fabrication, install, punch/closeout), tasks, change orders (added scope, credit, T&M ticket, backcharge), budget vs actual, material and glass orders with backorder and reorder tracking, daily logs, hours, project files, a calendar and a per-person My Week view
Instead of
- Procore
- Buildertrend
- Knowify
- eSUB
Field crew portal and time tracking
Crew members sign in, see the projects and bids assigned to them, and submit daily logs (with delay causes such as GC not ready, weather, material late) and time entries by activity (field measure, fab shop, install, drive)
Instead of
- QuickBooks Time
- ClockShark
- Raken
Website content updates
The office publishes or unpublishes portfolio projects and gallery photos and edits captions without a developer
Instead of
- Squarespace
- WordPress
Owner-facing website analytics
Daily page views, top pages, button/call/form clicks, and traffic sources
Instead of

Where AI would help next
No AI ships in this build yet. Proposed next: Plan reading & estimate follow-ups. Each item below is labeled as a proposal, not a feature.
What we'd add next
Plan reading for contractor bid requests
Proposed, not built yetThe old way
An estimator downloads the plan set a general contractor uploaded, pages through the drawings and specs to find every storefront, curtain wall, entrance door and hardware callout, and types the scope into an estimate by hand.
What we'd build
AI reads the uploaded plans and specs, pulls the glazing scope into a checklist with sheet references (openings, systems, glass types, door hardware) and drafts estimate line items. The estimator checks each item against the drawings, sets prices, and sends the estimate.
An honest proposal: this isn't in the build today. It's what we'd fit to this business next.
