In a building’s plant room, an HVAC engineer in a navy work jacket walks and talks beside the client’s facilities manager in a dark blazer, past a large chiller and a row of pumps.

Service Proposals · Service Agreements · Service Invoices

From a finding on the roof to paid in full.

A deficiency your engineer logged on the round, or a year of rounds for a whole building: either is priced once, in a Service Proposal. Your client’s facilities team approves from the emailed link, a deposit can clear before you order parts, and the Service Invoice reuses the same lines when the unit is back in service.

From the finding to paid

One coil, one record, from the first quote to the last payment.

On the October round your engineer found RTU-07’s condenser coil fouled and the east roof’s filters due. Follow the repair through its record: each line priced once and never retyped, with nothing going to your client before you send it.

Where it began: the finding on the October round

  1. Price the repairA deep clean of the condenser coil with the fins combed straight, a filter set for the four rooftop units on the east roof, and a check of the unit once it is running again. Each line takes a fixed price — or bill the hours where the roof decides how long it takes.
  2. Send the Service ProposalAn email takes the facilities team to every priced line and any deposit you ask for. Asking for approval is your choice: for small work on a building you already look after, skip it and the job goes straight onto the Maintenance Calendar.
  3. The facilities team approvesWhether on a phone on site or at a desk in head office, your client approves the Service Proposal or turns it down, giving a reason. You see the moment it was opened and the answer given.
  4. A deposit before the partsOptional too, and chosen job by job: a flat amount or a percentage of the total. If you request one, the job waits at Awaiting Deposit and moves to Scheduled the moment your client pays.
  5. Start the workOn the roof, press Start work. The facilities team gets an email that the work on RTU-07 has begun.
  6. Sign it offCoil cleaned, fins combed, filters in, the unit running: press Complete. Your client gets an email saying the work is finished, and the Service Invoice comes up with all its lines already in place.
  7. The Service Invoice, from the same linesAll three lines come across, minus the deposit already paid. Check the total; one click sends it.
  8. Paid in fullThe balance lands on the Service Invoice and your client gets an email confirming you received it.

When the balance is in

A thank-you in your company’s name, the paid invoice attached.

As soon as your client settles the balance, a thank-you email in your company’s name is sent, carrying the Service Invoice, stamped paid, as an attachment — the copy the property group’s accounts team files against the building’s maintenance costs. Open the attachment the way they would.

Work Record · optional, yours to send

The coil before, the coil after, and every step on the roof between.

When the engineer signs the job off, its Work Record is ready: every step as your engineer logged it, a before and an after photo, the parts fitted and the hours on site. Leave it on the unit’s record, or send it to the facilities team when they request it — or whenever you think the work deserves an audience. Nothing sends it automatically, and the Service Invoice is never held back for it.

  • Assembled while your engineer logs the work, so no write-up waits at the office
  • Goes out only when you send it: on request, or at will
  • Kept on the unit’s record either way, ready for the next Uptime Report

Service Agreements

A whole year of rounds, on one signature.

A building’s maintenance for the year goes into one Service Proposal — the Service Agreement — with each kind of visit priced and timed on its own. Once your client approves it, all its rounds are approved together and placed on the Maintenance Calendar.

  • Each round is its own record, with the agreement’s price and the protocol for each unit
  • A breakdown call-out between rounds, or a repair spotted during one, gets quoted and invoiced on separate lines
  • Every Service Proposal and Service Invoice carries your company’s name, ready to print or save as a PDF

How the Maintenance Calendar books it

Service Proposal · Service AgreementAshcombe Tower · the yearService Proposal approved

  • Seasonal changeovers · cooling start-up and heating changeover2 visits × $380

Approving this Service Agreement approves every round in it.

History

Every step on the job, who took it, and when.

Every action is logged with the time and with who was behind it: you, your client or the system. So when the property group’s accounts team asks what got approved and on which day it was paid, the answer is already in the History tab.

Questions

About proposals, deposits and invoices

Is this available now?

Not yet. Service Proposals, Service Agreements, deposits, Service Invoices and payment records all come with Frigalto at launch; each scene here illustrates an invented client.

Is the Service Invoice sent to my client automatically?

No. It draws on the job’s own lines, so nothing gets typed twice, and your client receives it only once you have checked it and pressed send.

Can I take a deposit before ordering parts?

Yes, whenever you want one. Add it to the Service Proposal as a flat amount or a percentage; the job holds at Awaiting Deposit and only moves on to Scheduled once your client has paid it.

Can one proposal cover a building’s maintenance for the year?

Yes — that is the Service Agreement. Every kind of visit carries a price and frequency of its own, and one approval of the agreement covers every round in it.

Can I invoice a breakdown call-out or a repair found on a round?

Yes. Record the parts and hours against the job; each one turns into a separate line on the Service Invoice, so your client knows what every charge covers.
