What you get
Where a fabrication workshop feels the difference
Workshop jobs have two halves, the make and the fit. These parts of FESK.UK keep both halves on one record.
Steel and consumables at cost
Keep box section, flat bar, sheet, discs, wire and gas in the Library with cost and sale prices, and add a one-off line for the bespoke piece. The quote shows the margin to anyone allowed to see costs.
Make on Tuesday, fit on Friday
Give a job extra visit days with their own times, one in the workshop and one on site. Each day shows on the schedule, and the header shows the workshop hours booked against the hours available.
Drawings sent with the quote
Attach the drawing to the quote and mark it visible to the customer. They see it on their phone with the price and accept both together, while your own sketches stay marked internal.
Bench hours and site hours on one job
Each fabricator times their own work, and the hours sit on the job with overtime or weekend uplifts where they apply. Reports show how long each kind of job really takes, so the next quote starts from real hours.
Repeat work from a template
Save the railing or bracket you make again and again as a job template, with the hours, the priced lines and a suggested RAMS. Start the next one from it and change only the sizes.
Hot work checked before it starts
Jobs that mention welding, grinding or plasma cutting bring up the hot work check: combustibles moved, extinguisher in reach, a fire watch afterwards. The welding and fabrication RAMS is signed on the phone.
One job, start to finish
A shop window grille, from the first message to paid
Dean Hart and Sam are made up; what the app does is real.
It starts on your website, at any hour
Dean writes in the night. With the AI add-on, Front Desk replies and files it. Without it, Dean uses your booking link.
A quote from your own price list
The lines come from your Library at your rates. Dean approves on the phone, and the quote becomes job WK-0715.
Dropped into the week
Pick the day and who's going. Sam gets a buzz and one tap opens WK-0715 with directions. Dean's tracking link shows when Sam sets off.
Thursday 09:00 · SamTimer, photos and a signature on the glass
Sam starts the timer on arrival. Grille made to measure, painted, fitted with anchor bolts. Photos taken before and after.
Dean signs at 12:59. 3h 55m goes to Sam's timesheet in two taps.
Invoiced before you leave
WK-0715 becomes the invoice with the hours and charges already on it. If you take cards, Dean scans a QR code. If not, reminders go out on their own.
Paid by card at 13:35What the job actually made
The costs were logged on WK-0715 as the work went, so its profit is already worked out. Reports add it up by month, with who still owes you.
Example figures: Sam's wage and the buy prices are made up.

Fair questions
What fabricators ask
Does it do drawings, cutting lists or nesting?
No. FESK.UK isn't CAD or nesting software. Attach the drawing and the cutting list as PDFs so whoever is making it opens them from the job on their phone.
Can I take a deposit before ordering steel?
Yes. Switch on deposits and set the amount on the quote, with the VAT worked out. With Stripe, the customer pays as they accept. Otherwise a deposit invoice goes out for a bank transfer.
Can I send purchase orders to the stockholder from the app?
Not yet. Purchase orders are recorded in FESK.UK, and receiving one adds the steel to stock, but you send the order to the stockholder the way you do now.
Can the customer see it while it's being made?
Yes. Photos you mark as visible show on the customer's tracking page with the job's progress, so they can see the gate before it's fitted.
