Platform expertise

WorkGuru consulting, training and reporting.

WorkGuru shines for businesses whose jobs involve materials as well as labour — workshops, fabricators, manufacturers and project businesses that need job costing and stock in one place. Setting it up well is the difference between knowing your margins and guessing them.

Where WorkGuru businesses get stuck

The jobs-plus-stock combination is WorkGuru's strength, and also where implementations most often go wrong:

Stock half-implemented. Some materials tracked, some not — so job costs are never quite believable.
Purchases not landing on jobs. Purchase orders raised, but costs not flowing through to the jobs that incurred them.
Labour captured, margin unknown. Timesheets work, but materials, freight and outwork never make it into the picture.
The team routes around the system. If entering a job is fiddly, people stop — and the data quietly rots.
Choosing or switching. Weighing WorkGuru against alternatives, or moving across from another system — independent advice before the subscription, not after.

The payoff: AI-assisted reporting from WorkGuru

Every job, purchase, timesheet and stock movement in WorkGuru is a data point. Recent advances in AI make it easy and affordable to turn them into reporting that answers real questions — up to the moment and easy to act on. For example:

True job margin — labour, materials and purchases together
Quoted versus actual, job by job
Stock on hand, value and slow movers
Work in progress across the workshop
Which job types and clients actually pay
Purchasing patterns and cost creep
