OUR STORY

Our founders spent 10 years consulting with hundreds of companies - before they decided to build the software they always wished existed.

Our founders Tony and Michael spent over a decade working with fabrication, engineering, and construction businesses - watching owners struggle with software that was too expensive, too complex, and not built for them.

So they built WorkGuru. Everything in one place - quoting, scheduling, timesheets, purchasing, job costing - so you can run your business with clarity and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does WorkGuru integrate with accounting systems like Xero, MYOB, or QuickBooks?

Invoices, bills, and COGS journals sync automatically, no double entry. You run operations in WorkGuru, financials in your accounting software.

How do staff record their time on jobs?

Via the Mobile App on their own phone, or a shared Kiosk App in the workshop where staff clock in/out with a PIN.

How can we track actual costs versus forecasted budgets?

Every project has a real-time profit widget showing forecast vs. actual for labour, materials, purchases, and margin, colour-coded so overruns are obvious instantly.

Can we invoice a fixed price while hiding internal costs?

Yes. Track all your detailed costs internally, and use the "billable tick" to show the client a single clean line item.

How does the stock and inventory system work?

Basic product and purchasing tracking is built in. The optional Stock Module ($300/month) adds full perpetual inventory with FIFO, serial/batch tracking, multi-warehouse, and landed costs.

How do we manage purchasing and supplier invoices?

Raise POs directly from a quote or project, costs hit the job immediately. When you receive and enter the supplier invoice, actuals update and the bill pushes to your accounting software.

What are the options for invoicing and progress claims?

Five methods: percentage of forecast, completed tasks, remaining balance, custom amount, or actual usage. Covers deposits, milestones, and finals.

How does WorkGuru handle document, photo, and email storage?

Upload files directly to any quote, project, or client. CC your dedicated WorkGuru email with the project number in the subject and it saves automatically.

What scheduling and capacity planning tools are available?

Gantt charts for project timelines, drag-and-drop staff scheduling, and Kanban boards for tracking jobs through stages.

Does WorkGuru handle payroll or complex award interpretation?

No. WorkGuru tracks operational project time and pushes hours to your accounting software. For award interpretation, it integrates with apps like Tanda.

What is the timeline and process for implementation?

3 to 6 weeks. Choose free self-onboarding, remote implementation with the WorkGuru team, or full-service setup through a partner.

What level of customer support is provided?

In-house Brisbane team via phone, tickets, 1,200+ support articles, and twice-weekly open Q&A sessions with the founders.

Can we restrict what financial data staff see?

Yes. Role-based permissions let field staff log time and materials without seeing margins, cost rates, or invoicing.

Can WorkGuru track the service history of machinery or equipment?

Yes. The Assets module logs every project, service, timesheet, and material against a specific asset with full history and profitability tracking.

How do you handle variations or amendments to jobs?

Add a variation phase inside the existing project, or raise a formal variation quote that groups with the original for consolidated management and invoicing.

Can we create custom safety checklists or delivery dockets?

Yes. Build custom forms for field data, signatures, and photos. All documents use customisable Word templates with tokens that auto-populate project data.

Does WorkGuru have an open API and integrate with CRMs?

Yes. Documented open API, built-in lightweight CRM, and native HubSpot integration for deeper marketing and sales functionality.

Can we track internal, unbillable, or non-productive time?

Yes. Create internal projects for things like clean-up or sick leave, and staff clock on as normal so you see exactly where non-billable hours go.
