Causeway Joinery
chooses JMS software
for bespoke joinery
Paul Chapman, owner of Causeway Joinery
has been in joinery since leaving school.
Since he took over the business in 2001, he has
seen the business grow - despite a major setback
in 2008 when a fire destroyed the premises and
everything in it. But during the recovery period,
Paul was able to re-evaluate how the business
should go forward.
In 2011, Paul invested in Joinerysoft’s
Joinery Management Software for quoting and
manufacturing as well as a Trend window system
which links to it. He also purchased an in-house
spray booth.
The catalyst for change came with the
introduction of the new office administrator,
Kerry, who was brought in to take over quoting
from Paul. Not having a joinery background
Kerry initially struggled with the vast amount of
information that for Paul was automatic. It soon
became apparent that most of the information
needed for quoting was stored in Paul’s head. So
he decided to start a new system that Kerry could
be involved in setting up. After a demonstration
by Joinerysoft he could see that not only would
it quote large jobs quickly, the software would
also handle the custom joinery that was key. Paul
explains, “We do all bespoke work, including
windows, doors, stairs and kitchens. No two jobs
are ever the same and sometimes every item in
the job is different too. We need software that
can handle the variety of joinery that we produce
but also quote quickly.”
Causeway Joinery received two days
installation/training with the software and has
access to continued support both by phone and
over the internet which allows Joinerysoft staff to
demonstrate how to do tasks remotely. He adds:
“There are so many benefits. The investment of
time setting up Joinerysoft was well worth it. I
can now order all glass, ironmongery and timber
in advance of the project start and know that it
will be correct.”
