    In short

    Agenbord Field for Landscaping Companies is a proposed operations and billing system for commercial landscape and lawn care companies doing $1-20M a year. It covers maintenance contracts, crew routes and budgeted hours, enhancement upsells, snow and ice event billing and estimating from property measurements. It is a concept shown with illustrative designs, delivered as a custom build combining our production billing engine and field apps.

    The problem

    What slows commercial landscaping & lawn care down today.

    Properties lose money and nobody knows which ones

    A contract was bid at 14 crew hours a visit, the crew spends 19, and the owner finds out at year end - if at all. Hours sit in a timesheet app that isn't tied to the property budget.

    Enhancement sales leak out of the field

    Crew leads see dead shrubs, broken irrigation heads and mulch that needs refreshing, but the observation lives in a text thread. The account manager prices it a week later, after the property manager has asked someone else.

    Snow billing is a Monday-morning scramble

    After a storm, dispatch rebuilds which sites were plowed, salted and walked, how many times and at what time, from driver texts and GPS screenshots. Invoices go out late and get disputed.

    Workflows

    How the work flows through the system.

    Each workflow runs on one shared record, so nobody re-types numbers between steps.

    Estimate from measurements to contract

    Estimator → account manager → property manager

    1. The estimator measures turf, bed, hardscape and pavement areas on aerial imagery and counts trees and irrigation zones.
    2. Production rates per task (mowing per thousand square feet, bed edging per linear foot, pruning per shrub) turn measurements into hours and materials.
    3. The season schedule - 32 mowings, 4 fertilizer rounds, 2 mulch installs - becomes the annual price, spread into 12 equal installments.
    4. The property manager signs online; the contract creates visits, a budgeted-hours target and a billing schedule.

    Crew day and enhancement capture

    Crew lead → account manager → property manager

    1. Crew leads see the day's route, each site's scope and its budgeted hours on a tablet.
    2. Time on site is clocked per property; the app shows hours used against budget for the season.
    3. The crew lead photographs an issue - dead boxwoods, a broken rotor - and tags it as an enhancement opportunity.
    4. The account manager prices it from the catalog and sends a one-page proposal; approval creates a work order for the enhancement crew and a separate invoice.

    Snow event to invoice

    Dispatcher → plow and sidewalk crews → billing

    1. The dispatcher opens an event with the storm start time and accumulation from the weather service the company uses.
    2. Drivers log each push, salt application and walkway clearing per site with time-stamped photos.
    3. Per-push, per-event and per-inch contracts are priced automatically; seasonal contracts record service without extra billing.
    4. Invoices with the service log attached go out the next morning; disputes are answered from the log.
    Modules

    What's included in Agenbord Field for Landscaping Companies.

    Property measurements

    Turf, bed, hardscape and pavement areas plus counts per property, stored for re-bidding.

    Estimating with production rates

    Your own rates per task turn measurements into hours, materials and price.

    Maintenance contracts

    Season schedules, scope by visit and equal monthly installments, renewed annually.

    Crew routes & time

    Daily routes per crew with time on site clocked against budgeted hours.

    Job costing by property

    Budgeted vs. actual hours and materials per property, per month and per season.

    Enhancement pipeline

    Crew-captured opportunities, priced proposals, approvals and enhancement work orders.

    Irrigation & service tickets

    Repair tickets with parts used, time and photos, billed time-and-materials.

    Snow & ice events

    Per-push, per-event, per-inch and seasonal contracts with time-stamped service logs.

    Contract billing

    Installments, enhancements, T&M and snow invoices with autopay, through the Agenbord Recur engine.

    Fertilizer & chemical log

    Product, rate, area and applicator per application, with restricted-season rules per county.

    AI, with limits

    AI that does specific jobs and shows its work.

    Every AI feature is tested on your own records before it's switched on, and a person approves anything that moves money or goes to a customer.

    Enhancement write-ups from photos

    Turns a crew lead's photos and a short note into a draft enhancement proposal with suggested catalog items ("replace 6 boxwoods, 3 gal"), for the account manager to price and approve. Limits: it proposes items from your catalog only; quantities and prices are confirmed by a person.

    Over-budget property alerts

    Flags properties trending over budgeted hours and explains which tasks drive it, from the crew time data. Limits: it reports patterns; re-pricing or re-scoping is a management decision.

    Fit

    Who it's for and who it isn't.

    A good fit if you are

    • Commercial maintenance contractors serving HOAs, office parks, retail centers and multifamily
    • Companies with 3-40 crews that budget hours per property and want to see where they go over
    • Firms adding snow and ice management in winter with per-push, per-event or seasonal contracts
    • Owners who want enhancements and irrigation repairs to turn into approved work orders faster

    Probably not the right fit if you are

    • Residential mow-and-go operators with simple weekly visits
    • Design-build firms whose work is mostly one-off installation projects
    • Large national companies already standardized on an enterprise landscape ERP
    Rules & compliance

    Designed around the rules you work under.

    Plain-English notes, not legal advice. Software supports your compliance process; it doesn't replace your attorney, CPA or compliance lead.

    Florida commercial fertilizer certification

    Since January 1, 2014, anyone applying commercial fertilizer to an urban landscape in Florida must hold a limited certification under s. 482.1562, Florida Statutes, renewed every four years with continuing education. The crew module can record each applicator's certification and expiry. Fla. Stat. s. 482.1562.

    Local fertilizer restricted seasons

    Many Florida counties ban nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer on turf during a summer restricted season - Seminole County and Hillsborough County, for example, from June 1 to September 30. Restricted seasons are set per county in the fertilizer log so crews can't schedule a banned application. Seminole County ordinance · Hillsborough County.

    Customer texts

    Service notices and approvals by SMS need appropriate TCPA consent from the property contact. FCC - TCPA overview. Rules vary by state and county; this isn't legal advice.

    FAQ

    Commercial landscaping & lawn care: common questions.

    Can it estimate from aerial measurements?

    Yes. The estimator measures areas on aerial imagery (from a provider you choose), and your production rates turn those measurements into hours, materials and price. Measurements are stored so next year's re-bid starts from them.

    How are maintenance contracts billed?

    Usually as 12 equal monthly installments of the annual price, with enhancements, irrigation repairs and snow billed separately. Autopay and reminders run through the Agenbord Recur billing engine.

    How does snow billing work?

    Each site has a snow contract type - per push, per event, per inch tier or seasonal. Drivers log service with time-stamped photos, and the event closes into invoices with the log attached.

    Will crews actually use the app?

    Crew leads clock in and out per property and take photos - nothing more is required. Big buttons, offline use and Spanish-language screens are part of the design.

    Can we keep our current accounting and scheduling tools?

    Yes. Most builds sync invoices, payments and job costs to QuickBooks Online or another ledger, and the first phase can add contracts and billing around your current scheduler.

    Is this available today?

    Not as a ready-made product. It is a concept delivered as a fixed-price custom build on our production billing engine and field apps. Aspire, LMN and Jobber are established packaged options depending on your size.
