Learn how to assess your business data to make more informed decisions for your roofing company.

Many business managers know how critical it is to analyze data and KPIs, or Key Performance Indicators, to see how their business is performing, but it can be difficult finding the right information. The same issue applies to roofing contractors trying to assess their data. Sorting through spreadsheets of overwhelming data can lead to roofing business owners, managers, and leaders not even attempting to analyze it. They are missing valuable insights that can help assess the overall business, make more informed decisions, optimize operations and more. 

The first step in analyzing your roofing data is to focus on KPIs or Key Performance Indicators for your business. Key Performance Indicators are quantifiable performance measures over time for a specific objective. KPIs provide targets for teams to work toward, milestones to gauge progress, and insights that help everyone in the organization make better decisions. 

If you don’t know your business’ KPIs, you can start by asking basic questions like, Do you know what your projected sales are for next month, next quarter and next year? Or, Do you know which customers have a manufacturer warranty that goes with a maintenance contract?

Along with following best practices, roofing software can help commercial roofers streamline and improve their estimating process in several ways. Many roofing CRM software like Jobba offer built-in templates and estimating tools, which can help streamline the estimating process and ensure that all estimates are accurate and consistent. It can also help improve collaboration among team members, allowing multiple users to access and update estimates in real-time, which can help ensure all are accurate and up-to-date. 

Roofing businesses that harness the power of their roofing data gain a significant advantage in an increasingly competitive market. By collecting, analyzing, and effectively utilizing roofing data, you can make better-informed business decisions. 

It is important to remember to consolidate your roofing data from various sources into a centralized database or cloud-based platform. This gives you a unified view of your data and facilitates efficient analysis. 

A cloud-based platform, like Jobba, can consolidate your data into one centralized place. Jobba also has pre-built, visual reports with a built-in connection to Microsoft Business Intelligence Reporting and Visual Analytics.
