Fergus

Financial Clarity for the Trades

Fergus was born out of frustration. Founded by a veteran plumber tired of watching profits bleed through unbilled hours and lost receipts, Fergus is maniacally focused on financial health. Its centerpiece is the Status Board — a visual Kanban-style pipeline showing exactly where every job sits, from Quoting to Ready to Invoice. No job ever falls through the cracks.

One of its most powerful features is supplier integration. When you buy materials at a supply house, Fergus can automatically pull that invoice into the relevant job card, marking up materials based on your set margins. It completely eliminates the end-of-month panic of matching receipts to jobs.

The ConstructionPerks Take

We think Fergus is best for: Plumbers, electricians, and HVAC contractors (1-50 trucks) who struggle with tracking material costs and want a visual, idiot-proof way to ensure every hour and part gets billed.

One thing to think about is its regional footprint. While it's a giant in Australia and New Zealand, it is still growing its North American supplier integrations.
