Quote approvals

Sticker shock at pickup ends when the trail is airtight.

The owner sees the scope + total, picks an alternative, and accepts on record. Change orders after acceptance require their own approval and land on the same chain-of-custody trail. When the invoice comes, nothing about the total is a surprise.

The problem

  • Verbal approvals over the phone that the customer remembers differently three weeks later.
  • A quote sitting nine days without follow-up because nobody is watching the clock.
  • Change orders never signed. Reveal at pickup. Dispute.
  • The customer wanted the base fix and got the premium package because the estimator couldn't show alternatives side by side.

What CoreOP does

  • Portal approval with the customer's IP, timestamp, and the exact scope + total at the moment of acceptance.
  • Three quote alternatives side by side - base, base + preventive, base + upgrade. Customer picks the total that matches their budget.
  • Change orders after acceptance require their own approval and land on the same trail.
  • Approval clock on every quote with rule-driven auto-nudge and escalation. Days-in-approval becomes a KPI.
