For trades firms with operatives out in the field

Field ops software built around how you already work.

Not an app you log into and adapt to. We see how your jobs actually run — enquiry to invoice — and build the platform around it. Then you run the whole operation from your phone, without hiring another ops manager.

Why it's called OpsDeck

“The paper's gone. The spreadsheet's gone. The WhatsApp photo hunt is gone.”

Hi-Point Access — Sheffield scaffolding

Where the money goes

The work on site isn't the problem. Everything between site and the office is.

Your lads do the job right. It's the gaps around the job — the chasing, the paperwork, the waiting to invoice — where time, margin and evenings disappear.

Done, but not invoiced

The gang finished at half eight. The invoice goes out tomorrow — or Friday, in a batch. Every day it waits is money you've earned and can't touch.

Photos, but no home

Pictures land in a WhatsApp group with no job attached. Someone in the office spends the afternoon matching them up — or doesn't.

On site, but nobody knows

The office rings round to find out what's started, what's finished and what's gone wrong. Every call is time not spent invoicing or planning.

Signed, but on paper

Handovers, PPE checks and toolbox talks signed on a sheet that's in a van, a folder or the bin. Try finding one from three months ago.

Find out what the gaps are costing you

Fourteen tap-to-answer questions, three minutes. See where your operation sits, the office hours lost to chasing jobs and re-typing paperwork, and the cash sitting unbilled — plus your three priority fixes. Results on screen straight away.

Not off the shelf

Other platforms make you change how you work. We build around how you already work.

Jobber, BigChange and the rest are good apps — built for everyone, so you adapt to them. OpsDeck isn't an app you download and figure out. We sit down, map how your operation runs, and build the platform around it. Your office keeps working the way it works — it just stops running on paper, diaries and WhatsApp.

Off the shelf: Sign up, log in, then work out how their app wants you to run jobs
OpsDeck: We come out first and see how your jobs actually run — enquiry to invoice
Off the shelf: Your job stages squeezed into their template
OpsDeck: Your stages, your names, your trade — the way the office already talks
Off the shelf: Your paperwork rebuilt to fit their fields
OpsDeck: Your handovers, PPE checks and forms built in as you already use them
Off the shelf: An app for every operative, plus training to go with it
OpsDeck: Operatives get a job link on WhatsApp. No app, no login, no training
Off the shelf: Need something it doesn't do? Join the feature-request queue
OpsDeck: Need something new? We build it — your platform grows with the business
Off the shelf: Support ticket to a helpdesk
OpsDeck: You deal with the person who built it

Built around you doesn't mean starting from a blank page.

The core — jobs, calendar, crews, site sign-offs and invoicing — is proven, running around 180 site visits a week at Hi-Point Access. We shape it around your operation, so you get bespoke without the bespoke price tag or the year-long build. From £250/month, unlimited users.

One operation. Three views.

The office

Every job, stage and crew in one view. Holidays, vehicles and allocations in the same place. Finished jobs flagged to invoice the moment they're done. Compliance packs download in one click.

The foreman

Opens a link and sees today's work. Handovers filled in and signed on site, digitally. Notes and completion marked from site.

The lads

Their job link arrives on WhatsApp — nothing to install, no training, and they only see their own job. They can't open the job until PPE checks and the declaration are signed — timestamped, every time. Site photos go straight onto the right job, and time logs record themselves.

From enquiry to job completion — it all works together.

One enquiry starts it. The office books it, the lads get it on their phone, and the job comes back ready to invoice. Nothing gets typed twice.

In the office

  1. 01Enquiry inLogged once, with the customer and site.

How It Works

We find the admin task costing you the most time — and make it disappear.

01

We come to you

We start with a free consultation to walk through how your operation runs today — enquiries, jobs, crews, paperwork — and where the office is losing time.

02

We build around you

No off-the-shelf software. We build the platform around the way your operation already works — your job stages, your paperwork, your trade. You don't change your process — we take it off paper.

03

Your whole operation goes live

The office stops chasing, the lads stop printing, and you can see the whole operation from your phone. And it's an ongoing partnership — we keep building as your business grows.

Built for trades firms with teams out on site

OpsDeck is for firms running multiple gangs or crews across multiple sites every day — where the office has to know who's where, what's done, what's been signed off and what's ready to invoice.

Once a business has grown past diaries, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups, things start slipping through the cracks — between the office, the lads on site and the people chasing the money. OpsDeck brings the whole operation into one place, without asking anyone to change how the job gets done.

Just some of the trades we work with: Scaffolding · Tarmac & Surfacing · Groundworks · Roofing · Insulation · Fencing · Landscaping

Built by a tradesman, for tradespeople.

I'm Rob. I run Infascape, a landscaping company in Sheffield. I built OpsDeck because I needed it myself — and today it runs Hi-Point Access's entire scaffolding operation. I partner directly with every customer to make sure it works for them. If your firm has outgrown spreadsheets and everything still runs through you, this was built for exactly that.
