Custom operations systems · Kempton Park

Your business got bigger than a spreadsheet.

We build the system that keeps track of every job, vehicle, machine and quote. For fleet, workshop, manufacturing and contracting businesses whose people work on site.

What we do

You see the whole operation without walking the floor.

One system that keeps track, built around the way your business already works.

See every job, live.

Where each job is, who has it, and what happens next.

One body builder's managers used to walk the floor to find a build. Now it is on the screen at the desk.

Stop money leaking.

Every quote followed up. Every finished job invoiced.

A truck repair workshop was losing quotes nobody chased, and could not see it. Now every truck is captured on entry and nothing leaves the yard uninvoiced.

Capture work once, where it happens.

Your team records the job on a phone or tablet on site. The system sends it where it needs to go.

A pump supplier now quotes in minutes instead of days, with a document that shows the customer why that pump was chosen.

What we build

Whatever your operation needs to keep track of.

What it tracksWhat stops slipping
Quoting and calculationsQuotes that do the maths and show the customer how the answer was reached.
Job and production trackingEvery job at every stage, from arrival to invoice, with nothing forgotten in between.
Inspections and reportsDone on a phone or tablet with photos, and shared the same minute.
Stock, tools and plantWhat you have, where it is, and what condition it is in.
Requests, approvals and submissions on WhatsAppThe people doing the work capture the work, on the phone they already carry.

Every system is built around your stages, your words and your people. If a feature does not give you more control or remove work, it does not go in.

See it working

The phone on site, and what the office sees.

Three everyday examples. The worker uses WhatsApp. The system does the rest.

Quotes were falling through the gaps and nobody could see it. Now every job is tracked, including the ones that fail.

How we work

We come to you before we build anything.

  1. Discovery

    We come to your site and follow a job through the business. We learn the stages and the words your team already uses.

  2. Design

    We design around your process. Your stages, your responsibilities, your terminology.

  3. Build

    A first useful release goes to your team within weeks. They use it on real work while we refine it.

  4. Support

    Training, rollout and ongoing improvements as the business changes. You deal with the people who built it.

About getCatalyst

We've been where you are.

We spent years inside operational businesses watching teams pay for software they barely used. The real work ran on spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups and memory.

getCatalyst builds around how the work actually happens. We stay close to the floor, use plain language, and remain involved after launch.

Every system we build must do one of two things:

  • give you control of something you cannot see, or
  • make a process you already have work properly.

If it does neither, we will not build it.
