Onboarding
We combine software setup with hands-on onboarding so your team in Pakistan can move from manual tracking to a structured system, measured by a completed first cycle rather than a login count.
Why this matters
Buying construction software is easy. Getting a company to actually run on it is the hard part, and it is where most implementations quietly fail. A system gets configured by whoever has capacity that month, launched with an announcement, and abandoned by the site teams whose data everything else depends on. Within two quarters the spreadsheets are back and the conclusion drawn is that the software did not suit the business.
Smart Construction treats implementation as part of the product rather than as a service you buy separately. The path below is the one we run with every merchant: choose a plan against your real project and user counts, configure the account properly, load the balances that make the first report meaningful, train each team on the modules it will actually use, then run one complete operating cycle with our team alongside yours.
The success measure we work to is not a login count or a training attendance sheet. It is a completed first cycle: one full month of client billing, supplier payment, labour attendance, and payroll processed on the platform and reconciled against how you would have done it before. Once a business has run a real cycle and trusted the result, nobody has to push adoption any further.
Review Starter, Growth, and Enterprise on our pricing page. Every tier includes the full platform, so choose on active projects and users rather than on features. Setup and monthly fees are published in PKR.
Pay the one-time setup fee. Our team configures your merchant account, company profile, cost codes, users, roles, approval limits, and invoice and receipt branding before anyone logs in.
Add active sites, clients, opening balances, retention held, advances outstanding, and key suppliers. We guide the conventions for bills, attendance, and site diary so every project records the same way.
Office and site teams work in one system. Bills, purchase orders, finances, labour attendance, materials, and reports stay aligned because they share the same project records rather than being reconciled later.
Use dashboards, report packs, and scheduled WhatsApp summaries for management review. Upgrade your plan when active projects or users grow, and open new projects from a configuration you have already proven.
How we run it
These are the decisions that separate an implementation still running in year two from one quietly replaced by spreadsheets.
Cost codes, project structure, roles, and approval limits are agreed before anything is loaded. Getting this order wrong is the most common cause of a messy first quarter, because re-coding historical entries is far more expensive than deciding the convention up front.
A system that starts at zero produces reports nobody can use until several months of history accumulate. We load client, vendor, and subcontractor positions, retention held, and advances outstanding so the first month is already meaningful.
Invoice and receipt letterheads are configured separately per company, along with quotation and agreement templates, so the first bill the system produces is one you are happy to send to a client.
A single general session teaches everyone a little about everything and leaves nobody able to do their job. We run separate sessions per function, using your live projects rather than a demo dataset.
Field adoption decides whether a site system survives. Supervisors are trained on the phone or laptop they will actually use, on their own site, with a daily entry short enough to complete between site rounds.
Our team is present through your first billing and payroll run. Unusual deductions, rate structures, and approval paths surface in the first cycle, and this is when they get configured rather than becoming permanent workarounds.
Typical timeline
An indicative sequence. Actual timing depends on how ready your opening data is and how quickly site teams adopt daily capture.
We map your projects, approval chains, and current tools, confirm the plan tier that matches your active project and user counts, then configure the company profile, cost codes, users, roles, and document branding.
Active projects are created with their clients, contract values, and milestones. Client, vendor, and subcontractor balances, retention held, and advances outstanding are loaded and reconciled against your existing records.
Separate sessions run for commercial, site, HR, and leadership teams on your own project data. Supervisors are trained on site, on their own devices.
Client billing, supplier payments, attendance, and payroll run on the platform with our team alongside yours, and configuration is adjusted while the cycle is live rather than afterwards.
We review what worked, close the gaps, and plan the rollout of any modules deliberately held back for phase two, such as safety, equipment, or advanced reporting.
New projects open from the configuration you have already proven. When active projects or users exceed your tier, moving to Growth or Enterprise is a plan change rather than another implementation.
Go-live is defined as the start of a complete billing and attendance cycle, not the day user accounts are created.
Our approach
What you get
Role-based training and short field workflows are what keep a system in use once the initial attention fades.
Because balances come across at go-live, month one produces numbers you can act on rather than a partial picture.
Current operations move first and historical detail is phased, so you get value while the archive question is still open.
Being alongside your first live cycle is how unusual rates, deductions, and approval paths become configuration instead of manual exceptions.
Onboarding and support come from our team in Pakistan, working the same hours and the same conventions as your business.
The fifth project takes hours to open because it inherits the configuration the first four proved.
Plans
Every tier includes the same full platform. The plan sets your active project and user limits, and nothing else.

Terminology
Questions
Standard setup covers merchant configuration, users, roles, document branding, and role-based training. Most teams run their first billing or attendance cycle within a few weeks, depending on how ready your opening data is and how quickly site teams adopt daily capture.
We load the positions that matter for current operations: client, vendor, and subcontractor balances, retention held, advances outstanding, and active project status. Historical detail is phased or archived rather than force-migrated, so go-live is not held hostage to a full data migration.
Yes. When you add active projects or users, move from Starter to Growth or Enterprise. Your configuration carries forward, so an upgrade is a plan change rather than another implementation.
Merchant account configuration, company profile, initial user accounts and roles, approval limits, invoice and receipt letterhead branding, and standard onboarding training for your teams. Published setup fees per tier are on the pricing page.
One named owner per team: commercial or finance for balances and billing, site leadership for the diary and attendance rollout, and HR for payroll. An executive sponsor helps, mainly because rollout decisions get made faster.
Our team is alongside yours through the first billing and payroll cycle, which is when unusual deductions, rate structures, and approval paths surface. They get configured at that point rather than becoming permanent manual workarounds.
No. The platform runs in a browser on any device. Supervisors are trained on the phone or laptop they already use, on their own site, and the daily entry is deliberately short enough to complete between site rounds.
We review what worked, close the gaps, and plan the rollout of any modules deliberately held back for a second phase, such as safety, equipment, or advanced reporting. After that, new projects open from a configuration you have already proven.
