Production Management
LeadPerfection allows you to specify “milestones”, which are significant dates in the lifecycle of a typical project. These milestones might include when paperwork is received, when jobs are measured, when material is order and delivered, and when the work is started and completed.
Furthermore, reports exists which allow you to analyze “cycle time” by the person responsible for each milestone. For example, you could analyze how many days on average it has taken for each sales rep to turn in his paperwork. Similarly, you can analyze the cycle time for measurers, purchase agents and installation crews. By comparing their cycle times, you can identify individuals who are consistently delaying completion of projects. Acting upon this can shorten up the time necessary to complete jobs, thus improving your cash flow. It can also help reduce cancellation rate, since jobs which progress further and faster are usually less likely to be cancelled. |

Do
you ever wonder “where all the money is”? In times where sales
are up yet cash is tight, the answer usually is in work-in-process. Interestingly,
many larger home services companies do not manage work-in-process effectively.
LeadPerfection was designed to organize and analyze work-in-process so
that at a glance, you could easily identify cases where jobs are running
past due while there is still time to recover.
