ERP software for project-based businesses
If your business wins work, buys materials, makes or assembles something, fits it on site and then invoices it, Qaflo is shaped around that lifecycle — whatever the trade is called.
Qaflo is ERP software for UAE contractors: quotations, purchasing, stock, job costing, invoicing, the VAT return and payroll, in one system.
Different trades, same headaches
The trade changes; the Tuesday-afternoon problems do not. Each one is a thing the platform does today.
- “Which van has the parts?”Field & fleetGPS units on your vehicles, on a live map, inside the same system that holds the job.
- “Month-end VAT panic”ReportingThe FTA VAT 201 return, box by box, generated from your own ledger.
- “Samples never come back”Samples & catalogueEvery book, board or swatch barcoded, issued against a client with a due date, and scanned back in.
- “Quoting from a spreadsheet”Sales & CRMTrack every enquiry from first call to signed contract, then turn it into a job card without re-typing a thing.
- “Who approved this?”Projects & productionOne disciplined pipeline with owners and a full audit trail at each handover.
- “Payroll by WhatsApp”HR & payrollPayroll runs, attendance and leave — with the visa, labour card and passport expiry alerts that matter in the UAE.
Quote → procure → make → install → invoice
Businesses running Qaflo or shaped like the ones that do. The pattern matters more than the label.
Not on the list? That is a list of examples, not a gate. If your work follows the same lifecycle, the platform fits — the words on the screen are configurable.
What that looks like in practice
Metal, glass, joinery, signage & furniture manufacture
Made to order, then delivered and installed. Production sub-stages match how a workshop is actually organised, whether you are cutting aluminium, building signage, or making kitchens and wardrobes.
- Carpentry, metal, painting and tailoring as real sub-stages
- Stock ledger with moving-average valuation
- Delivery notes and installation sign-off on the same card
Events, exhibitions & stand builders
Deadlines do not move. Build, logistics and on-site installs coordinated against one immovable show date, then torn down and costed the week after.
- Tight stage deadlines with alerts before they slip
- Delivery scheduling and live vehicle positions
- Full job P&L closed the week after the show
Who Qaflo is not for
These businesses would use the CRM, finance and HR and leave two thirds of the platform idle. You would be paying for a workflow engine you never open.
- Pure professional services — agencies, consultancies, law and accounting firms
- Trading, retail and e-commerce
- Hospitality and F&B
- Software and digital products
If that is you, we will say so on the first call rather than six weeks into an implementation.
