Solar EPC

End-to-end solar project execution from enquiry through installation.

3 Segments

Residential, commercial, and industrial solar projects.

AMC

Post-installation maintenance, warranty, and service management.

Business Challenge

Managing Solar Projects Across Sales, Procurement, Installation & Service

The company was managing customer enquiries, quotations, site surveys, project planning, procurement, installation, invoicing, and AMC activities through different tools and spreadsheets.

Scattered Business Data

Customer, quotation, project, purchase, inventory, and service information was maintained across different systems or spreadsheets.

Difficult Project Tracking

Tracking project progress, activities, deadlines, material requirements, and responsible teams across multiple solar installations was difficult.

Material Management

Solar panels, inverters, batteries, mounting structures, cables, and other installation materials needed accurate planning and tracking.

Site Survey Management

Site survey details such as customer requirements, installation location, capacity, and technical information were not properly connected with quotations and projects.

Procurement & Field Coordination

Purchase requirements and field activities required manual coordination, making it harder to ensure materials and teams were ready before installation.

Billing & AMC Management

Project invoices, advances, outstanding payments, warranty, maintenance schedules, service requests, and customer history required additional effort to manage.
