Challenges in Craft Industry<\/h2>\n\n

Craftspeople are familiar with the problem: high demand and many parallel projects on the one hand \u2013 a shortage of skilled workers, time pressure, and rising material prices on the other. In our fast-paced world, most craft businesses handle more orders than a traditional 40-hour week would actually allow. It quickly becomes clear that efficient and reliable construction site management has become the cornerstone of every business. With our modern HERO software, businesses can map various organizational processes, from digital construction site planning and mobile time tracking to invoice management. The entire team can collaborate digitally in the central interface, ensuring that working time is used efficiently and no construction site is forgotten. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cHERO impressed us in customer projects with its sympathetic team and easy-to-use software. I am therefore delighted about the following ideas for the article master and automation.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Digital Construction Site Management<\/h2>\n\n

With HERO, construction site management<\/a> is completely digital \u2013 but what exactly does that mean? Quite simply, users can use HERO to perform various tasks involved in organizing, processing, and successfully completing a project digitally and centrally in one software program. These include, for example, preparing quotes, scheduling, construction documentation, and accurate post-calculation. The craftsman software offers users various practical features as well as a mobile craftsman app that has been proven to make work in the office, in the workshop, and on construction sites easier.\u201cMy favorite feature in the mobile app is the ability for the end customer to sign the respective document directly on their smartphone.\u201dQuote from Peter Pr\u00fctting <\/p>\n\n

It gets even better with our state-of-the-art automation tools, which can be easily integrated into the HERO software and help users with repetitive office work in particular. For example, customer emails can be sent automatically, construction site photos can be shared at the touch of a button, and project status reports can be updated automatically. The all-in-one operating software thus reduces manual effort and helps tradespeople spend less time in the office and more time on the construction site. <\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

The digital planning board enables craftsmen to optimally allocate their employees and resources to projects in terms of time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

The key: a well-maintained product master<\/h2>\n\n

A well-maintained article master is the key to smooth processes for construction companies\u2014from quotation to invoicing. Whether concrete, bricks, insulation materials, windows, or door fittings: the article master contains all the materials, components, and services required on the construction site. Only when this data is up-to-date and complete can construction managers and estimators prepare accurate quotes, schedule materials on time, and keep track of costs. This makes the article master an indispensable basis for modern, digital construction site management. The digital article master is like a central database that contains all the products, materials, services, prices, and supplier information that a craft business needs in its day-to-day work. In HERO, maintaining article master data is completely digital and super easy. And why is that so important? The better and more up-to-date this item data<\/a> is maintained, the faster and more accurately quotes and calculations can be created. This means customers receive feedback much faster, employees spend less time manually searching for the right article data, and errors in material selection and pricing can be significantly reduced. <\/p>\n\n

\"ERP
Maintaining article master data and current prices is easier than ever in HERO thanks to our interfaces.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

Time wasters: Article master data maintenance in everyday life<\/h3>\n\n

Regularly maintaining hundreds of product entries and keeping the relevant data up to date takes time and effort. Material availability changes, new products come onto the market, and manufacturers change their prices at will. In the hectic day-to-day running of a business, maintaining product master data is a considerable problem\u2014especially when data is updated exclusively manually or even irregularly. The effort involved is considerable, order fulfillment suffers as a result, and if the use of outdated article master data leads to incorrect calculations, this creates yet another problem. At HERO Software, we are aware of these issues and have come up with a practical solution for efficient master data maintenance that helps every craft business: <\/p>\n\n

Solution: Automated item master maintenance via interfaces<\/h3>\n\n

In HERO craftsman software, article master data can be easily maintained via practical interfaces. This significantly reduces the amount of work involved and ensures that craftsmen can always work with correct product information and up-to-date prices. In HERO, users have access to interfaces to IDS Connect<\/a> and Datanorm <\/a>for master data maintenance and contact with wholesalers. Thanks to the seamless integration of these interfaces, item master data can be imported easily and article items can be added to quotes and invoices in no time at all using drag & drop. With a single click, data is synchronized between HERO and IDS Connect or Datanorm, allowing HERO users to update their entire article master in seconds. The advantages of the interfaces at a glance: <\/p>\n\n

\u2022 Time savings, as manual data maintenance is no longer necessary.\u2022 Always up-to-date prices and product data.\u2022 Fast and reliable quotation creation.\u2022 Reliable calculations and less need for additional work.\u2022 Data synchronization with a single click.<\/p>\n\n

Tip from Peter Pr\u00fctting: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ask your supplier directly for a Datanorm 4.0 file containing the items you have already purchased and the current net prices.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

\"ERP
Datanorm and IDS Connect are just two of the many interfaces available to users in the HERO software.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

HERO Automation: Going one step further<\/h2>\n\n

At HERO, we have long been aware that automated processes relieve the entire team and create more time for the essentials. No craftsmen wants to spend hours sitting in the office, maintaining Excel lists, and repeatedly chasing customers to arrange appointments. That’s why we are automating more and more processes in the HERO software: writing customer emails, maintaining project status, following up on quotes, and arranging on-site appointments with customers can all be done completely automatically with HERO. Craftsmen also benefit from HERO Automation<\/a> when it comes to digital construction site management: <\/p>\n\n

\u2022 Task lists are automatically generated for project work on construction sites.\u2022 Field staff are automatically reminded of upcoming customer appointments in HERO.\u2022 Construction site photos are automatically structured and made available to colleagues and customers thanks to cloud storage synchronization.\u2022 Upon completion of a project step, such as an on-site appointment at a construction site, the order automatically moves to the next project step\u2014no manual follow-up necessary!<\/p>\n\n

State-of-the-art automation enables craftsmen to work smoothly and reduces tedious paperwork.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

Conclusion: Future-proof craftsmanship<\/h2>\n\n
