Stop Guessing on Job Profitability Unlock Real-Time Insights into Every Project
In the carpentry world, where margins hover at 12-15% on average, poor data visibility leads to 20-30% of jobs running over budget. Our custom BI solutions deliver crystal-clear dashboards tailored to your workflow, turning raw numbers into strategic wins.

The "Data Blindspot" Problem
Estimating bids for custom installations like kitchen cabinetry without historical job data leads to chronic underquoting and profit erosion
Tracking lumber and hardware waste across multiple job sites creates hidden cost leaks in framing and finishing phases
Client follow-ups for maintenance on decks and siding rely on scattered notes, missing 30% of repeat opportunities in seasonal repairs
Crew scheduling clashes for roofing or plumbing crews due to siloed calendars waste up to 10 hours weekly in coordination
Post-job reviews for trim work and flooring installations lack metrics, hindering improvements in craftsmanship quality and client referrals
Seasonal demand forecasting for HVAC tune-ups or gutter cleaning fails without integrated sales and weather data, leading to overstaffing or shortages

Streamlined Crew and Resource Allocation
Streamlined Crew and Resource Allocation: Real-time visibility into crew availability and material stocks for lumber and fixtures prevents delays on tight-deadline projects like kitchen remodels, saving an average of 12 hours per week in coordination time and boosting on-time completion to 92% across multi-site operations.
Enhanced Client Relationships Through Insights
Enhanced Client Relationships Through Insights: Track satisfaction scores and project timelines for repairs and renovations to nurture loyal clients, turning one-off repairs into recurring maintenance contracts that increase lifetime value by 45% for woodworking specialists over a 12-month period.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, I was drowning in paper quotes and gut-feel estimates for my custom millwork jobs, often underbidding on intricate crown molding installs. Now, their dashboard pulls in my past 18 months of data from 45 completed projects, and I've cut bidding time from days to hours. Landed a $45K porch project last month without a hitch—profits are up 22% year-over-year."
Mike Harlan
Owner, Harlan Custom Carpentry & Millwork
"Our crew was wasting premium oak and time on mismeasured installs because we couldn't track inventory across three vans during peak remodel season. The custom BI tool they built integrates our daily logs and predicts needs down to the board foot for cabinetry runs. Saved us $8,200 in materials over the summer rush on 12 jobs, and jobs finish 20% faster now."
Sarah Kline
Operations Lead, Kline Woodworks LLC
"Client callbacks were a nightmare—notes scattered everywhere after weather-delayed deck repairs. AIQ's system now flags follow-ups based on job completion dates and local forecast integrations, and we've doubled our repeat business from seasonal exterior work. It's not flashy, but it works; my revenue jumped 35% in the last quarter thanks to three new maintenance contracts."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your BI solution handle data from multiple job sites?
We design it to aggregate inputs from various sources, like mobile apps for crew logs and GPS-tagged photos of installations. For carpenters juggling sites, this means a unified view where you see material usage across a deck build in the suburbs and a cabinet refit downtown. Our custom integrations pull in data every 15 minutes, ensuring you're never flying blind. We've seen this cut coordination errors by 35% for multi-site operations, with built-in security to protect sensitive project details.
Can this work with my existing tools like Jobber or QuickBooks?
Absolutely. Our team specializes in deep, bidirectional API connections that make your tools talk seamlessly. For a carpentry business, this could link job scheduling in Jobber directly to QuickBooks for instant cost updates on custom shelving projects. No more manual exports that lead to mistakes. We handle the heavy lifting, testing for reliability so your data flows without interruptions, even during peak seasons when you're slammed with repair calls.
What kind of KPIs are most useful for carpenters?
We tailor KPIs to your needs, focusing on metrics like material yield rates (e.g., boards used vs. wasted on framing), job completion variance against bids, and client satisfaction scores from post-install surveys. Industry benchmarks show carpenters average 18% waste; our dashboards help track this in real-time, flagging issues early. Plus, we include predictive elements, like estimating delays from supplier lead times, empowering data-driven decisions that boost your 12-15% margins.
How long does it take to implement this custom BI system?
Typically 6-8 weeks for a full rollout, starting with a two-week audit of your workflow. We prioritize quick wins, like a basic profitability dashboard live in the first month, so you see value fast. For carpenters, this means analyzing your last quarter's data sooner, identifying why certain trim jobs overran. Our agile process includes weekly check-ins, ensuring it fits your rhythm without disrupting ongoing builds.
Is the system mobile-friendly for field use?
Yes, we build responsive web apps optimized for tablets and phones, perfect for carpenters checking dashboards mid-job. Imagine pulling up crew assignments or material needs while on a roof install—no laptop required. It syncs offline too, uploading data once you're back in signal range. Clients report 25% less downtime from miscommunications, with intuitive designs that even non-tech-savvy foremen can navigate easily.
How do you ensure data security for client projects?
Security is non-negotiable. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all data in transit and at rest, with role-based access so only authorized crew see sensitive info like client addresses. For home services, where privacy matters in residential remodels, we comply with standards like GDPR and include audit logs for every access. Regular penetration testing keeps it robust, giving you peace of mind as you scale without fearing breaches.
