Industries / Construction & Contractors

A project quote is too big to send on autopilot without a second look

Contractor enquiries are often multi-item and high-value — Ordder prices them, but big ones get a human check before they leave, not after.

What this actually looks like

"Need cement 50 bags, TMT steel 2 ton, delivered to the Wagholi site by Friday. Rate?"
Ordder prices each line item from your catalogue, totals the quote, and — because it crosses your configured high-value threshold — routes it to a rep to review before it goes to the contractor.

Why this desk breaks first

The specific way construction & contractors enquiries go wrong

Multi-item enquiries, one message

"Need cement 50 bags, steel 2 ton, sand — site delivery" is several line items bundled into one request, each needing its own rate.

A big quote shouldn’t go out unreviewed

A ₹5 lakh site order carries more risk than a retail sale — sending it fully automatically, with no one checking, is the wrong default.

Rates get revised mid-negotiation

A contractor asking for a better rate on volume needs a human in the loop, not an AI re-quoting on its own.

What Ordder does about it

Built for how construction & contractors actually sells

Multi-item quotes from one message

Several materials in a single enquiry are priced as separate line items on one quote, not lost in translation.

High-value orders flagged automatically

Quotes at or above a threshold you set are marked for review rather than sent the instant they’re priced.

Approve-first mode, if you want it

Every AI-drafted reply can require a human approval before it reaches the buyer, on the accounts where that matters most.

Once approved, invoice follows automatically

Acceptance still raises the order and the GST invoice with no separate manual step.

GST, specifically

Works contracts are typically taxed at 18% GST, with lower rates for specified affordable-housing categories — Ordder applies the slab configured per item rather than assuming one rate for every job.

Questions people actually ask

Can I require a human to approve quotes before they’re sent?
Yes — Autonomy mode in Settings can be switched to approve-first, so the AI drafts the reply and a person confirms it before the buyer sees it.
What counts as "high-value" and gets flagged?
You set the threshold in Settings; any quote at or above it is marked for review regardless of autonomy mode.
