Custom app for assembly orders in project furniture
Appfront builds apps for suppliers and fitters of project furniture: per project and per location, the fitting docket on the crew's tablet, with the floor plan, the bill of materials per room and the fitting instructions; delivery ticked off against the delivery note on arrival; shortages and transport damage reported with photos before fitting begins; and handover per room signed by the client. So the project manager in the office knows what is there, what is missing and what has been signed, without the crew handing in dockets in the evening.
What is an app for fitting dockets for project furniture?
A fitting docket for project furniture is the work order for the crew on site: which project, which floor and room, which furniture goes there according to the floor plan, which bill of materials applies and how it should be fitted. An app puts that docket on the crew's tablet, lets delivery be ticked off against the delivery note on arrival, records shortages and damage with photos, logs hours, and has the client sign per room for handover. Everything goes straight to the project manager and to the ERP.
Without an app, the crew drives to the site with a folder of floor plans, delivery notes and a handover form. On unloading, a desk turns out to be damaged; this is noted on the delivery note and only seen in the office on Friday. The client signs one form for the whole floor, and when a complaint about a cabinet in room 3.14 comes in, nobody can say whether it was handed over or whether the shortage was later delivered.
We build custom software because the app has to fit your projects and your systems: what your project planning and ERP look like, how floor plans and bills of materials come about in your business, whether you work with your own crews or subcontractors, how follow-up deliveries are handled, and what the client wants to see at handover. A generic work-order app understands a job, but not a floor plan, a room or a delivery note.
Docket per room
The assembly slip for each project, floor and room, with the floor plan, the parts list and the instructions, on the crew's tablet, even without signal in a new-build property.
Receipt, shortages and damage
Delivery ticked off against the delivery note on arrival, missing and damaged parts reported with a photo, and the follow-up delivery started straight away from the report.
Handover and hours
Handover per room with the client's signature and outstanding items noted, hours per crew and per project, and everything passed to the project manager the same day.
How we build your app for assembly slips for project furniture
We start with your most recent large project: how many rooms, how many crews, how many shortages, and how long it took to clear the last outstanding items.
How projects are scheduled, how floor plans and parts lists are produced, how crews and subcontractors are directed, how shortages and follow-up deliveries currently run, and which ERP you use.
Projects with floors and rooms, the floor plan and parts list per room from your drawing package or ERP, and the delivery notes per shipment.
The assembly slip on the tablet, the receipt check, the shortage and damage report with photo, the hours, and the handover per room with signature.
Integration with project planning, ERP and aftercare, reporting per project and crew, and then maintenance and extension to subcontractors and service.
What an app for assembly slips for project furniture actually does
The components below come up with almost every supplier of project furniture. Which ones you need depends on the size of your projects and on whether you work with your own crews.
Assembly slip with floor plan
For each room, the floor plan showing the position of every piece of furniture, the parts list and the assembly instructions, available offline on the tablet.
Receipt check
Delivery ticked off against the delivery note on arrival, per package or per item, with an immediate alert to the office in the event of a discrepancy.
Shortages and damage
Missing or damaged parts reported with a photo and article number, with the follow-up delivery logged as a next action in the ERP.
Handover per room
Client signature per room or floor, with outstanding items and photos, and the handover report as a PDF to both parties.
Hours per crew
Start, end and travel time per crew and per project, with a post-calculation against the estimated assembly hours.
Project overview
Per project, which rooms are complete, handed over or blocked by a shortage, and which crew is where, for the project manager in the office.
Who we build an app for assembly slips for project furniture for
The app is intended for businesses where a single project consists of dozens to hundreds of rooms and where handover is currently signed on one form for the whole.
Suppliers of office fit-out
Large projects with many identical workstations and a tight schedule per floor. The slip per room and the handover with signature are the core.
Fit-out companies for schools and healthcare
Many different rooms with specific furniture and a client who wants to sign per classroom or room. The floor plan per room and the outstanding items matter most.
Assembly companies working as subcontractors
Assembly for several manufacturers, with accountability per client. Hours per project and the handover report are what is needed.
Manufacturers with their own assembly service
Production, delivery and installation in one place. Linking shortages with aftercare from the factory is the core.

Why choose Appfront for your installation sheet app for project furniture?
A project is handed over once every room is handed over. We build on that: the sheet per room, the shortage reported before installation, the signature where the furniture stands.
Shortages are known before the crew starts
Tick off on unloading, report with a photo, and the follow-up delivery is set in motion straight away. No more digging through delivery notes at the office on Friday.
The signature belongs to the room
Handed over per room, with outstanding items and photos. If there is a complaint, you know what was there and who signed.
The office sees the site
The project manager sees by floor what is complete and where a crew is stuck, the same day, without sheets being handed in at the end of the evening.
Security and privacy for an installation sheet app for project furniture
The app works with client project data and floor plans, with signatures and photos of sites, and with the hours of staff and subcontractors. Access is set up by role and by project: the crew sees only today's sheets, a subcontractor only their own projects, the project manager everything on their projects. Floor plans of secured locations, such as courthouses or laboratories, can be hidden after handover. Every report, signature and change is logged with name and time.
The app runs in a European data centre, with encrypted storage and daily back-ups. Integrations with the ERP and project planning use dedicated keys that can be revoked per integration.
Frequently asked questions about an installation sheet app for project furniture
Questions that project furniture suppliers and fitters ask before getting started.
It puts the installation sheet for each project and room, with floor plan, parts list and instructions, on the crew's tablet, lets them tick off delivery against the delivery note, records shortages and damage with photos, logs hours, and has the client sign per room for handover. Everything goes to the project manager and the ERP the same day.
From your drawing package or ERP: the floor plan per room with the positions, and the parts list per room from the order. We decide which format you use in the first step; you don't redraw anything.
Yes. The day's sheets, floor plans and parts lists are loaded onto the tablet in advance. Ticks, reports, photos and signatures are stored locally and sent as soon as there is signal, with the time of the moment itself.
The crew reports the missing or damaged part with a photo and article number, and the report becomes a follow-up order in your ERP or a task for the project manager. The room does not count as complete until the follow-up part is installed, so a project is not handed over with open shortages.
Yes. Handover can be set per room, per floor or per project, with outstanding items and photos per room. The client receives the handover report as a PDF, and outstanding items stay open until they are dealt with and signed off.
Yes. Projects, orders and bills of materials come from the ERP, teams and days come from the planning, and the hours, handovers and follow-up work flow back. We connect to what you already use; the app does not become a second project administration.
Check that first. A job-ticket app records a job with hours and a signature, and that is enough if your installations are small and handed over per address. Custom development makes sense when a project spans dozens of rooms, when the floor plan and bill of materials must be on the tablet per room, when snags need to feed into follow-up work, or when the client wants to sign off per room.
Every room handed over with a signature, and every snag reported before installation?
Tell us how large your projects are, how floor plans and bills of materials come about, and how a snag currently gets from the site to follow-up work. We will show you what the ticket per room, the goods-receipt check and the handover look like.
