How It Works

Three Pillars Built for Saudi Building Materials

Key account managers own the relationship with developers and distributor principals. Project-site reps handle construction-site visits and BOQ capture. Dealer reps run hardware-market beats and artisan engagement. All three sit inside one app, and SAR sell-out flows back continuously from the cloud DMS.

Key Account Cadence for Developers + Distributors

Each account carries a head-office call calendar, spec review cycle and flagship distributor audit. Visit planning auto-shifts when a developer calendar in Riyadh, Jeddah or Dammam moves, so no spec review slips.

BOQ-Led Site Capture by Project Reps

Reps visit sites, capture stage (foundation, block-work, roofing, finishing, handover), update BOQ progress and log contractor contacts through the field activity layer. Build stage drives the next visit cadence.

Hardware-Market Sell-Out + Artisan Engagement

DMS data feeds the analytics layer for dealer-wise SAR sell-out by SKU. Regional heads see range fill and artisan recommendation share. 1Voice AI answers a prompt like "top five hardware dealers by paint growth in Jeddah" instantly.

Complete Platform

Attendance, Pipeline, Artisan Engagement, Expense

One cloud stack: GPS attendance by role, BOQ-to-dispatch pipeline, artisan engagement at hardware markets, mada or bank-transfer and POS expense claims, and cement-depot delivery tracking across Saudi Arabia's regions.

GPS Attendance by Role

Selfie AI plus geo-fence: site reps lock to construction sites, dealer reps to hardware shops, key account managers to developer head offices. Missed-visit alerts and productivity ratios feed the workforce view.

BOQ-to-Dispatch Project Pipeline

Stages from lead to site delivery with milestone alerts, architect or contractor contacts, competitor SKUs and a forecast value in SAR. Route planning reshapes itself around the build stage and the distances between sites.

Artisan Engagement + Order Capture

Reps log engagement with masons, painters, tilers, plumbers and electricians. Brand-share intent feeds back to marketing. Orders book against the multi-tier DMS with SAR pricing slabs and a live stock view for cement, tiles and paint.

Expense, Leave, Timesheets

File expense claims against visit days with mada, POS or bank-transfer receipts. Leave management covers Saudi Arabia's Sunday-to-Thursday working week and public holidays, with Saudization workforce-mix reporting built in, and timesheets export payroll-ready files for direct or contract reps.
