Builder tie-up packages
For a tie-up with a developer, make one package per building. It holds the developer's item codes and a price per unit type such as 2BHK or 3BHK. It also holds who pays, the days to handover and the penalty per day late. Each buyer's flat becomes its own project, valued from the package.
PLANSFrom Growth
The problem it solves
- Each buyer's interior is quoted from scratch, though the developer agreed one price list for the whole tower.
- Nobody remembers whether the developer or the buyer pays for the wardrobe upgrade.
- The agreement says 45 days from booking, and the penalty for late handovers is counted only when the developer deducts it.
- The developer's item codes do not match yours, and their reports cannot be reconciled.
How it works
- Make a package for the building: name, developer, building or project, and the dates it is valid between.
- Set Money and Time: who pays (the buyer, the developer, or shared with the developer's %). Add the days from booking to handover (45 to start with), the penalty per day late and its cap.
- Add the items: the developer's code, name, room, description, and whether it is in the package or an upgrade the buyer pays. Give a price and quantity for each unit type.
- When a flat is booked, press New Buyer on the package. A new project opens with the package, the building as its name and today as the booking date.
- Set the unit type and flat number. The project value becomes the total of the included items for that unit type. Fill in the buyer and run the project as any other.
- The project shows Handover Due, Days Late and the Delay Penalty, worked out again every day. When it first becomes late, the project manager gets a to-do.

A buyer's flat
- New Buyer: a project with the package, the building's name and today's booking date
- Builder Package tab: package, Unit Type, Unit / Flat No., booking date
- Project Value: the included items' prices times their quantities for that unit type (upgrades not counted)

- Delay Penalty: days late times the penalty per day, up to the cap
Every day
- Open projects with a package are worked out again
- A project that becomes late for the first time gives its project manager a to-do Handover is late. It shows the due date and the penalty a day

Questions
Can a 2BHK and a 3BHK get different prices?
Yes. Each item has a price and quantity per unit type. The project value of a flat is the total of the included items for its unit type.How is the delay penalty worked out?
Handover is due the set number of days after booking. Each day past it, until the project is done, adds the penalty per day, up to the cap. It is worked out again every day.Can the developer pay part of the interior?
Set who pays to Shared with the developer's %. It is kept on the package for reference; raise the bills through the project's payment plan.Do buyers see how their flat is going?
Yes. Each flat is a project of its own. So the buyer sees the stage, updates, things to decide and payments on their pages and in the Client app.Related features
PROJECTSPayment plans that stop the job until paidGive each project a payment plan, such as the ready 10 / 50 / 35 / 5. Milestones fall due when a stage starts: the client is asked for 50 % as production begins. The job does not move on until that money is in. Payments Due shows what every client owes.PROJECTSProject stages held by roles, with checksEvery home moves from Site Measurement to Handed Over through stages, each held by a role such as the designer or the site supervisor. A project leaves a stage only when its check passes, for example the measurement sheet approved or every cut list made. The client reads in their app what each stage means.ESTIMATING AND SELLINGEstimates with rooms as sectionsThe detailed quote, laid out room by room. Modular boxes are priced from your materials, work such as false ceiling or painting comes from your rate library, and other lines are typed. The client approves it on a web page, and each new version tells them what changed.SALESEnquiries, follow-ups and site visitsEvery lead from WhatsApp, Instagram, a walk-in or a referral stays an enquiry while you visit, take the brief and quote. It keeps the property, rooms, budget and follow-up date. The booking payment turns it into a project with its rooms and team.PROJECTSProject feed and key eventsOne feed per project where updates, the daily work log, payments and stage changes land, each marked with who may see it. Key events such as the design presentation, site marking, installation and handover carry their own readiness checks.
