Pain points and challenges of a furniture company / joinery
The joinery industry faces specific problems:
1. hundreds of messages from clients with adjustments
2. scattered measurements and documents
3. lack of pricing standards
4. projects in “multiple versions” and no single final approval
5. difficulties in planning workshop production
6. no installer schedule
7. chaos in photo documentation from assembly
8. delays resulting from uncontrolled material shortages
9. complaints without history or evidence
Without a system, the company relies on people’s memory, sticky notes, and Messenger messages.
Why previous tools don’t work
- Excel
- Messenger / WhatsApp
- notebooks / sticky notes
- Google calendars
- folders with projects
- Trello / Asana (too general)
- they don’t connect sales, design, production, and assembly
- they lack checklists for installers
- they don’t track material delivery deadlines
- they don’t allow for project approval
- they don’t handle photos and documents in one place
