Who it is for

If you quote a job and get paid in stages, it fits

Different trades, the same problem: the price is set before the cost is known, and the answer arrives after the job is finished.

  • Building & civil works
  • Renovation & interior fit-out
  • Steel fabrication & structures
  • Plumbing & sanitary
  • Electrical & wiring
  • Mechanical & M&E
  • Aircon & ducting
  • Roofing, ceiling & partition
  • Tiling, painting & finishes
  • Piling & earthworks
  • Glass, aluminium & glazing
  • Landscaping & external works

Main contractor or subcontractor, one crew or several. If your trade is not on the list it almost certainly still fits — ask us.

How it works

Four stages, and no new habits

Click through the job the way it actually moves.

Quotation Calculator

The quotation

Split the job into trades, or cost it in one sheet. Materials, labour, crane, subcontractor and markup, with your own rates offered back to you from the last time you quoted them.

  • Last-quoted rate suggested on every material
  • A warning when the markup sits below your own average
  • Prints on your letterhead, with deposit and payment terms
MaterialsRM 38,420
Labour, 18 daysRM 9,720
Crane and liftingRM 4,200
Quoted priceRM 78,504
Quotes to approve

The handover

Your QS submits the quote. Management opens it in the inbox, adjusts the price or the margin if needed, and turns it into a live project in one click. Nobody retypes anything.

  • QS and management see only what they should
  • Adjust a trade price without touching the engineer's costing
  • The approved quote becomes the project, with its contract value

Project Management

The job

Log real costs, supplier invoices, site photos and variation orders as the work moves. Quoted against actual updates with them, per trade, so a thin job shows itself early.

  • Profit and cash on one card per project
  • Variation orders adjust the contract instead of being forgotten
  • Supplier payables worked out from the invoices you logged
ContractRM 142,000
Actual cost to dateRM 96,880
Gross profitRM 45,120, 31.8%
Claims and payments

The money

Claim by stage. Deposit, progress, balance, or one stage per trade. Each claim raises a real invoice under your own numbering, and recording the payment closes the claim and the invoice together.

  • Percentage, fixed amount, or the remaining balance
  • Receipts stored against the payment that cleared
  • Scheduled, billed, collected and left to bill always foot
Deposit 30%Paid
Progress 40%Invoiced
Balance 30%Not yet billed
Left to billRM 42,600
The maths

A 22% markup is not a 22% margin

That one gap has priced more thin jobs than anything else on a site. Move the sliders and watch it open up. Raul shows both numbers, per trade, so nobody quotes on the wrong one.

What's inside

Everything the job needs, nothing it does not

Quotes that print properly

The customer sees a clean line-item list that always foots to the price you quoted, never your internal cost words. Lump sum works too.

Profit per trade, live

Contract, actual cost, received, still to collect and supplier payable on every project, while you can still do something about it.

Paperwork where the job is

Purchase orders, supplier invoices, receipts and site photos on the project. Files are private, and a client link expires and can be pulled back.

Works on the phone

The whole system runs in a phone browser, including site photos straight from the camera. Nothing to install, no app store.

Your data is yours

Each company sits behind its own boundary, enforced on the server. Another company cannot read your quotes even if they go looking.

AI on the way

Fabrication, renovation, M&E — Raul is built for all of it.

Built on site and in the workshop, not in a startup office

Raul started as the system for one Kuching contractor doing fabrication and construction work, who was tired of quoting in Excel and finding out the profit afterwards. Every screen exists because a real job needed it: the trade-by-trade quote, the variation register, the claim that raises its own invoice.

None of that is specific to steel. A renovation, a re-piping job and a switchboard installation are all priced before the cost is known, all bought from suppliers on credit, all claimed in stages and all chased for payment. That is the shape Raul is built around.

It is also why it does not do scheduling charts or stock control. It does the part that decides whether the job made money.

Built and run daily by YSSE Fabricator Sdn Bhd, a fabrication and construction contractor in Kuching, Sarawak. Now available to other contractors as Raul, by Raul Technologies.

Questions

The things contractors actually ask

I am not a fabricator. Does it fit my trade?
Yes, and it is the question we get most. Raul is built around the shape of a contract job, not around steel: you price it before you know the cost, buy from suppliers on credit, put people on site for days, claim in stages and chase the payment. Renovation, building and civil, plumbing, electrical and M&E, aircon, roofing, ceiling and partition, tiling and finishes, piling, glazing and landscaping all work the same way. The cost headings are yours to name, and a job can be split by trade or priced as one lump sum.
Can another company see my prices?
No. Each company sits behind its own boundary, enforced on the server rather than hidden in the screen. A user signed in to one company cannot read another company's quotes, projects or files even if they go looking. Uploaded files are private by default.
My people are not computer people. Is it hard?
That is the design brief. Plain words instead of accounting language, big buttons, and screens that say what to do next. We set up your company, your users and your rates with you, so nobody starts from an empty screen.
Does it work on the phone?
Yes. The whole system runs in a phone browser, including uploading site photos straight from the camera. Nothing to install and no app store.
What about the quotes already in Excel?
Your material rates go into the system's own price database, so past pricing keeps working for you. Old quotes stay where they are. You do not need to re-enter history to start on the next job.
Can I quote by trade instead of by cost category?
Yes. Split a job into trades or sections, each with its own cost breakdown and margin, and the customer still sees one clean list that foots to the quoted price. A single lump sum works too. Both print properly.
How do I get started?
Message us on WhatsApp and we will walk through the system with your own numbers, then set your company up. Setup is on us, and you will be quoting the same week.
