SolarTyle quote platform

K&H trade ops platform
From scattered job admin to one operating view.
K&H were running jobs successfully, but the information needed to manage them lived across phone calls, WhatsApp messages, spreadsheets, diaries and paper records. The platform created one place to track every job from enquiry through to completion, while giving the team visibility of schedules, workforce compliance and operational workload.
Key numbers

Scheduling became proactive
The team can see upcoming workload, available capacity and planned installations in a single view, helping reduce clashes, delays and last-minute changes.
Compliance became manageable
Worker records, certifications, vehicle checks and key documents are tracked centrally, with expiry visibility and fewer manual reminders required.
