From quote to final invoice: hours, materials and progress for every job in one system, so you know what you are earning before the work is done.
IN SHORT
Job management software collects, for each job, the quote, hours, materials, purchases, progress and invoices, and compares planned margin with actual margin. It is for companies that work job by job: installers, machine and equipment builders, subcontract machine shops, engineering firms, small construction companies.
UreTech builds it with Odoo, configured around the way you run jobs, or custom-built when your process is unusual. A project starts from €8,000; the exact quote follows a free 30-minute review.
If two of these sound familiar, job management software pays for itself quickly.
You only learn what a job made at the end, when it is too late to correct.
Technicians’ hours arrive on paper, WhatsApp or by word of mouth, and someone re-types them at the end of the week.
Materials bought and never assigned: the cost stays in overheads and the job looks better than it is.
Progress statements are prepared by hand and invoiced late, hurting cash flow.
JOB SIMULATOR
Set up a job: quote, hours, hourly cost, materials. Add the overrun that always happens. Then run it for ten weeks and compare the spreadsheet with job management software.
Planned margin €9,000 · 37.5%
Week 0/10
Margin: you will know when the job is done?
Margin at completion, updated weekly€9,000
Actual margin €7,600 · 31.7%
Example values you can change. The maths uses only the numbers you enter.
Everything about a job in one place, from the first quote to the last invoice.
An accepted quote becomes a job with an hours and materials budget, without re-typing.
Every hour, stock issue and purchase is assigned to a job: costs build up as you work.
Progress statements and interim invoices generated from job data, sent to the Italian SdI.
Budget and actual costs side by side, job by job, with alerts when you overrun.
Hours, photos, notes and signatures collected on phone or tablet, also off-site.
Offers, orders, drawings and reports attached to the job, not scattered across folders.
FROM SPREADSHEETS TO SOFTWARE
Many companies start with one spreadsheet per job and a summary sheet. It works while jobs are few and the same person updates the files. Once open jobs number in the dozens, the problems are always the same: different versions of the same file, hours entered late, purchase costs that never reach the right sheet.
Moving to software does not throw away your work: we import open jobs with their budgets, turn your quote templates into the new system and keep the same cost headings, so people find the numbers they know.
ODOO OR CUSTOM
With Odoo each job can be a project with its own analytic account: the Project, Timesheets, Purchase, Inventory and Accounting apps post hours, materials, purchases and invoices to it, and the margin is visible in real time. For many SMEs this covers most of the work.
We custom-build the parts the standard does not handle well: unusual progress billing rules, links to price lists or technical software, site apps with specific flows. More on ERP for SMEs and Odoo implementation.
COSTS
A job management project with us starts from €8,000. The price grows with the number of users and technicians, integrations (accounting, technical software, e-commerce) and the data to import. If you use Odoo, the licence, paid to Odoo, comes on top of our implementation:
| Odoo plan | Billed yearly | Billed monthly |
|---|---|---|
| One App Free | €0 (one app only, unlimited users) | – |
| Standard | €14.90 per user per month | €18.60 per user per month |
| Custom | €27.90 per user per month | €33.90 per user per month |
Odoo list prices for Italy, checked on 8 November 2026 at odoo.com/it_IT/pricing. In the first year Odoo applies a discount (€11.90 Standard, €22.90 Custom, billed yearly) valid for 12 months for the initial number of users; a light user costs €4.90. Always check the current price list before deciding.
Four steps, with the first job running in the new system as early as possible.
30 minutes on how a job starts, is tracked and closed today. You get a written note with the likely cost range.
We set up the system with a real job, from hours to materials, and you check it.
Open jobs, items and customers imported; connection to accounting and e-invoicing.
Training for the technical office, admin and field technicians, then support.
