From pen & paper to software

Paper-based processes are slow, inefficient, and error-prone. The renewable energy industry is innately steeped in tech and tracking operations and workflow on a piece of paper is out of place. Using solar project management software will allow operations managers to track assets, access data, communicate with the team, and make informed decisions from the comfort of a mobile app.

Boost your solar service efficiency

Efficiency is the ability to send the right technician to the right location with the right tools and complete projects on time. By doing that, you are decreasing costs and installation time. Frontu might not be solar software but it can be a game-changer for your company’s efficiency. It can help with the automation of your operations, preventive maintenance of solar power equipment, and the scheduling of tasks.

Business data for better decisions

Frontu can give you a single, consolidated view of the lifecycle of your entire operation. The best part? You get access to simple, user-friendly dashboards that visualize data findings. Knowing what your clients demand, will help you adjust your solar service delivery and give them more relevant and timely solutions.

Sell more maintenance contracts

One of the biggest revenue streams for solar power companies is the maintenance of equipment following the initial installations. Frontu gives you all the data and information you need to automate the preventive maintenance process and offer your customers the solution and services they need.
