Group jobs into a project and see the whole contract

Some work is not one job. A refurbishment, a new build or a multi-phase install is a dozen jobs, several invoices and a contract value that nobody can see in a job list. Gaffer's projects group all of it under one reference, with a contract value, a site and a start and end date.

Replaces a paper diary, a whiteboard and a WhatsApp group. Every job has one owner, one time and one place to look. The office stops relaying messages and the engineer stops ringing in for the next address.

Jobs & Scheduling in Gaffer
Why it matters

Every job, every engineer, every day — on one board.

Create a job in seconds, drag it onto the right engineer, and watch it move from booked to on-site to done. The office sees everything; the van sees only what matters.

Owners stop being the human dispatch board. Engineers stop ringing in for the next address.

What you get
  • Contract value recorded against the project
  • Site and full address, or a standalone project address
  • Status tracked across the life of the contract
  • Jobs grouped under the project rather than scattered across the list
  • Works with milestone billing, variation orders and retention

Step 04 of the job: on site

The engineer taps "On my way" and the customer gets a text with an arrival window. On site: clock in, photos, the certificate for the job — EICR, Gas Safety, whatever the trade needs — signed on the device. No signal? It syncs later.

Projects is one part of that step. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →

About projects

What does projects replace?

For most trade businesses, a paper diary, a whiteboard and a WhatsApp group. Every job has one owner, one time and one place to look. The office stops relaying messages and the engineer stops ringing in for the next address.

Does projects work on a phone, and offline?

Yes. The mobile app is offline-first: records created on site are stored on the device and synced automatically, in order, when signal returns. Lofts, plant rooms and rural sites were the design brief.
