Plant and Hardscape Catalogs That Organize Themselves
A landscape supply yard stocks plants, trees, shrubs, sod, mulch, soil, stone, pavers, irrigation parts, lighting, and tools. Plant material comes from dozens of growers. Every grower has a different availability list, different sizing standards, different pricing. Monrovia updates on Monday. Bailey on Wednesday. Your local grower sends a text message with what is ready this week. Hardscape manufacturers change prices on their own schedule.
Quotery reads supplier catalogs as PDF, Excel, or CSV and maps every line to your catalog. Plant names. Container sizes. Paver dimensions. Stone grades. All structured. All searchable. Your sales team finds the right product without digging through grower emails from three weeks ago.
Your catalog stays current without someone spending Friday afternoon on data entry.
Project Takeoffs That Handle Mixed Materials
A commercial landscape project pulls from every category you stock. Trees and shrubs from the nursery. Pavers and wall block from hardscape. Pipe and heads from irrigation. Mulch and soil by the cubic yard. Most quoting tools handle one category. The rest becomes a spreadsheet. Merging three spreadsheets at 9 PM the night before the bid is due is not a workflow.
Quotery supports mixed material quoting in a single project. Each category has its own pricing rules, its own delivery schedule, its own margin target. The landscape architect wants a consolidated proposal. One click instead of merging three spreadsheets.
Your bids go out faster. Your margins stay accurate per category. You stop building quotes in Excel at midnight.
Plant Availability That Changes Every Week
A grower has 200 Blue Rug Junipers in 3 gallon. Next week they have zero because another distributor bought the block. Your salesperson quoted 50 of them yesterday and now cannot fill the order. The landscape architect specified that exact plant on the planting plan. Substitutions need approval.
Quotery tracks live plant availability by grower and by season. When inventory drops below commitment levels, the system flags the shortfall before the quote goes out. Suggested substitutions surface automatically with similar size, habit, and zone hardiness. The landscape architect gets a viable alternative instead of a backorder notice two weeks after they expected delivery.
The project stays on schedule. The substitution is approved before it becomes a crisis.
Water Efficiency Compliance That Keeps Projects Moving
Water efficiency regulations. EPA WaterSense. State-level flow rate mandates in California, Texas, Colorado, and a growing list of other states. Local ordinances on plant water use. An irrigation design that passes in one jurisdiction fails in the next county over. Selling non-compliant products into regulated jurisdictions delays closeout and costs relationships.
Quotery supports compliance tagging at the product level. WaterSense certification. Maximum flow rates. Plant water use classifications. When a quote includes products that may not meet local standards for the project's jurisdiction, the system flags them. The flag fires before the quote goes out, not after the inspector rejects the submittal.
The right products ship. The project passes review. The landscape architect trusts you to spec it correctly.
Progress Billing for Multi-Phase Landscape Projects
Landscape contractors bill in phases. Mobilization. Rough grading. Hardscape installation. Plant material delivery. Irrigation rough-in. Final punch. Each phase has its own materials, its own labor, its own payment milestone. Your billing system does one invoice per order. Someone in accounting is tracking phases in a notebook.
Quotery supports progress billing tied to project phases. Line items grouped by phase with their own delivery schedule and invoice trigger. Payment via card, ACH, Amazon Pay, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. D+2 settlement standard. Instant payout available.
The contractor gets paid at each milestone. You get paid when the contractor gets paid. The notebook in accounting goes in the recycling bin.
Delivery Coordination When Time Is Measured in Plant Stress
Plant material sitting on a truck in the sun starts deteriorating in hours. Sod needs to go down the day it arrives. A delivery window missed by four hours means dead material and an angry contractor. The contractor calls asking whether the Japanese maples made it onto the truck. Your dispatcher is on another call.
Quotery generates delivery schedules from quote line items with quantities and job site addresses pre-filled. Pick lists organized by delivery date. Truck routing that accounts for plant material sensitivity. When the contractor calls, the answer is on your screen.
Live plants arrive alive. Dead plant returns stop. The contractor calls you for the next project.
