What we do
Three systems that take the office work off the owner.
We're not here to replace your team. We're here to replace the retyping. A person checks every quote and document before it goes to a customer or supplier.
Quoting and pricing
Quotes built from your own price list and margins, so pricing stops waiting on the owner.
Job admin automations
Job details, follow-ups and invoices move between your inbox, job software and accounts without anyone typing them twice.
Licence and compliance register
Every licence, ticket, insurance and asset in one register, with a reminder before anything lapses.

Check my numbers on a callHow it works
From the first call to live in 30 days.
Week 1
Scope
A 30-minute call, then we agree in writing what gets built and the price, before any work starts.
Weeks 2 to 3
Build
Set up on your tools, using your price list, your job flow and your licences. You see it working as it comes together.
Week 4
Handover
Live in the business, your team shown how to run it, and a direct line to Abbed if something looks off.
The guarantee
Scope agreed in writing in week one. If it isn't live within 30 days and the delay is on our side, we keep working at no extra cost.
The work
Built for trades, by someone who has checked contractors' paperwork for years.
Site Group
Tender and pricing work
An AI-assisted tender review that shows what a tender requires, what evidence they already hold and what's missing.
Founder background
Contract management
Years of checking contractors' invoices, variations and job reports, so I know what a client looks for in your paperwork.
Who you deal with
One person from the first call to a working system.
I come from contract management: years of checking contractors' variations, invoices and job reports, and chasing what's missing. I build for the places where the work and the records drift apart.
When you work with me, you deal with me. I set it up, I run it with you, and if something doesn't look right, you ring me and I sort it out.

Questions
Before you book.
The questions tradies ask first. If yours isn't here, ask it on the call.
What is the Contract Ready System?
A quoting system, job and admin automations, and a licence, compliance and asset register, set up on the tools you already use and live in 30 days.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the scope. You get the scope and the price in writing before any work starts.
What does the guarantee cover?
We agree the scope in writing in week one. If it isn't live within 30 days and the delay is on our side, we keep working at no extra cost until it is. It covers what we agreed to build.
Do I need new software?
Usually not. I build on the tools you already use, such as your job software, Xero, Google or Microsoft 365 and spreadsheets, within what your setup allows. If something can't connect, I'll tell you before any work starts.
Next step
Tell me what's slowing the business down.
It starts with a 30-minute call. You tell me where the time goes and what you run. I tell you straight whether I can help, and if I'm not the right person for it, I'll say so.
