Solutions
A window order passes through surveyors, the office, technical, management and the factory. GlazeFlow gives each of them the part of the order they need, in a form they cannot misread.
By role
Built-in roles match each step of the order process, and each role sees and does only what that step needs.
01 · For surveyors
Measure, design and photograph each window and door on a tablet, and leave knowing nothing has been missed.
02 · For technical teams
Every item arrives drawn, sized and built from the supplier’s range, with the technical checks already run.
03 · For management
Release or send back orders, control who can do what, and see the history of each order.
04 · For manufacturing
Work from documents generated from the released order, laid out the way the factory reads them.
05 · For your customers
Show homeowners the design in 3D, in their colour, opening the way it will, while you are sitting with them.
Survey to factory
The same six steps every order already takes, connected so that nothing is re-typed and every step checks the last.

Error prevention
Most remakes start long before the saw: a height nobody wrote down, a hinge drawn on the wrong side, a profile picked from memory. GlazeFlow is designed to dramatically reduce avoidable order errors by catching them where they start.
Unreadable sketches
A drawn elevation replaces the sketch, so nobody has to interpret handwriting.
Forgotten widths or heights
An order cannot be submitted while any item is missing its width or height.
Missing measurements and details
Notes and site photos travel with the unit, so the office can check what the surveyor saw.
Incorrect opening direction
Every pane has an opening type; hinge and handle sides are drawn, shown opening in 3D, and flagged when missing.
Profile selection mistakes
Only choices from the chosen supplier’s range are offered, and a value outside it is flagged.
Inconsistent revisions
Validated orders are locked. Changing one means reopening it, which the history records.
Surveyor and office miscommunication
Orders sent back carry a required note, and the full status history stays with the order.
Outdated manufacturing documents
Production documents are generated from the current order each time they are downloaded.
