“Piv’s Engineering constructs, installs and maintains all kinds of steel structures. We have been using Job Commander since 2017, and if I had not put Job Commander in place when I did, I would not have this business today.

It was very easy to transition. As soon as I started with Job Commander I was able to reduce my team by two people immediately and this saved me something like $250k per year. We could collect the hours of the staff and know how much we make on each job, and we increased efficiency based on that information. It tells me if mistakes are made, and who was working on what job.

I like to buy local, so being an Australian company is important, and support is only a phone call away, I always get help with no time lost”.

“Job Commander is a key part of our business. We started using it around 3 years ago when we went for our first ISO accreditation, and we have just undergone our second certificate, and the auditor was really positive about us using Job Commander.

Job Commander is easy to use, and when our clients come in only remembering drawing number or job part, we can find their previous jobs instantly. It improved our quoting and job costing.

The whole system is working well, and my wife loves it too. It ties seamlessly into our MYOB system“.

“We started looking for software that could improve efficiency in our office management about 3 years ago and as a result started using Job Commander for control of our quoting process, job costing and office reports.

Luss Engineering is no longer human dependent in tracking job status, allocation of job hours and labour costs but instead has the reliability of the system to centralise current job information. It is also enormous value in being able to refer to customer job history.

I use the reporting feature regularly to provide relevant information critical to our success. Moving from a small engineering company to a medium size, has meant that Job Commander has allows us to grow without any problems and has also meant we have grown into Job Commander and it being a front line tool for our daily running of my business”.

“Job Commander has proved to be an affordable management tool that has made my job of running a machining workshop easier. It has been brilliant as far as freeing up a lot of time that was spent managing a manual system. The key features of being able to produce quotations for individual customers, generation of job sheets, assignment of job information and ongoing tracking of jobs in the system is the ideal software system for our workshop management. The ability to retain the full job history of customers makes for a great reference system when quoting future jobs. Job Commander is simple to use and keeps the workshop running smoothly“.

“Job Commander is so simple to use – you can do so much with a click of a button. The support team is very responsive and knowledgeable; we use both telephone and email support and our queries are answered very efficiently.

Job Commander enables us to provide reliable quotes to our customers. It is helpful to be able to look up previously completed jobs and compare. We like the weekly and monthly reports.  We can evaluate efficiency levels on jobs, and to compare the value of stock month to month to track increases or decreases, and much more.

Job Commander has enhanced our customer relationships – through the Work In Progress module we can instantly look up a job and provide the customer with a progress update or ETA. Our employees have been more empowered with Job Commander; we’ve noticed they are taking more ownership of their work too“.

“Job Commander has been the perfect management tool for our manufacturing business. This software system allows me to have total control of my business. At any point in time I can access any previous job with any active job allocated in the shop and make comparisons.

Allocation of job numbers allows me to track every job from time of quotation to final invoicing ensuring I have traceability even when the shop is extremely busy. This fully integrated system captures every job at every point in time which is essential for tracking costs and profitability“.

Peter Brown
(Owner)

“We have been using Job Commander for the last 7 years and it has satisfied our need to be more accountable with our time. The system allows us to track time spent on actual jobs and to hone in on where we are losing time meaning that we can improve our pricing and profitability. Quoting, job card preparation, production planning and delivery are easily compiled and tracked throughout the entire process. Access to customer history records allows us to find things quickly in the system. Job Commander gives me better control over the businesses finances“.

Jeff Owen

“Job Commander suits our industry! Job Commander is good value for money; there are a lot of job costing programs around and you pay a lot more for them, but Job Commander gives you everything you need – it does everything you want it to do. We like the reports including the Employee Hours report which we use to enter values for payroll in MYOB. Originally we were using manual handwritten sheets and a calculator, Job Commander has given us accuracy and confidence in our calculations. We started with the Quoting module and soon found it so easy to use for generating Purchase Orders for materials, through to Invoicing and Delivery Dockets – it follows the whole job from start to finish“.

Alan Harvey
(Manager)

“Job Commander is simple to use.  We like simple! The jobs history is really helpful to us when quoting similar jobs. The timekeeping is brilliant, and we can look up the real time hours on a job at any time. The other thing it’s good for is quoting; you can break down quotes into simple parts, and then compile a total quote.

The support is really good, and I say that being surprised because many others aren’t very good; most times Job Commander’s support team solves the problem on the spot otherwise they call back within a few hours. It’s by far the best system we’ve used“.
