Trades And Field Service

Turn calls and quotes into scheduled jobs without losing the handoff.

Primary Buyer

HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, remodeling, landscaping, excavation, repair, and field-service businesses.

Problem

Leads arrive by phone, form, text, Facebook, and referral, then disappear between the truck, office, quote, schedule, and invoice.

  • Quote follow-up and approval steps
  • Field photo and job folder structure

Expected Outcomes

  • Recover leads that would otherwise go cold
  • Keep office and field handoffs visible
  • Protect cash flow by finishing invoice packets faster

Payment Plans

Premium custom work without one painful check.

We are not trying to be the cheapest software on the shelf. We are trying to be the lower-risk custom path when cheap apps do not fit and enterprise platforms are too much. Approved setup can be split across the build while monthly support stays predictable.

The goal is simple: price above basic SaaS because the work is custom, but package the first step so the monthly decision feels closer to a serious software subscription than a traditional open-ended agency project.

TradeOps Contractor Workflow

Real range: $1,500-$8,500 setup. Managed support: $199-$899/month. Payment plans can split setup after a deposit; outside costs such as hosting, data licenses, or third-party tools stay separate.

We are not trying to beat every cheap subscription. We are trying to beat the total cost of forcing a local business into software that does not match how it works.

Not the cheapest app

A generic monthly tool can be cheaper when your process already fits it. We say that plainly.

Less than a full custom build

Most custom software projects start far above these entry offers. We narrow the first scope so a local buyer can start.

Premium because it fits

The value is the mapping, setup, integration, review controls, and local support around the way the work really happens.

Custom Bridge Plans

Starter Bridge

$750 activation + $399/mo

A narrow custom workflow that feels closer to SaaS: contractor follow-up, a training tracker, a simple evidence vault, or one intake flow.

Growth Bridge

$1,500 activation + $699/mo

Best for teams that need several workflow steps, light integrations, a dashboard, a portal, or staff-facing automation.

Regulated Bridge

$3,000 activation + $1,250/mo

For legal, healthcare, cyber, manufacturing, and audit-sensitive work where access controls, review steps, and evidence matter.

Bridge plans assume a 36-month support agreement. If the agreement ends early, the unpaid setup balance becomes due. Third-party software, hosting, SMS, and AI usage stay separate.

Market Price Check

Basic subscriptions

Often about $30-$550/month before extra users, add-ons, setup time, and process gaps.

Best when a business needs its calls, quotes, files, evidence, approvals, and follow-up connected around the way it already works.

Custom agencies

Public software-project guides commonly place small custom builds in the $10k-$50k+ range, with U.S. senior work often $120-$250+/hr.

DID uses fixed entry offers and smaller first scopes so a local team can prove the workflow before approving a larger build.

Enterprise platforms

QMS, field-service, SOC 2, GRC, and vCISO paths can quickly reach the low tens of thousands once onboarding and support are included.

DID is the bridge: more tailored than a cheap app, far less commitment than buying enterprise software before the team is ready.

Entry audit credit

For many local buyers, a workflow audit can be credited toward the first build when the implementation is approved within 30 days.

Setup split

Approved setup can be billed by milestone or spread over 3-12 months depending on region, scope, risk, and monthly support.

3-year partner price

A 36-month support agreement can earn a 10-12% managed-support discount, price-lock normal support rates, and reduce upfront strain.
