What is Service Business ERP Development?
Sabka Saathi builds an ERP for service businesses in India. One system across purchase, stock, production, sales, accounts and payroll, so the same number means the same thing everywhere. For service businesses specifically, that means job cards with assignment, status and completion evidence, quotation templates that convert directly into invoices, and staff-wise utilisation and job-wise profitability. Typical delivery is 10–20 weeks at ₹80,000 – ₹6,00,000+, built on Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and delivered remotely to service business owners and operations managers anywhere in India.

Why service business projects are different
ERP Development for service businesses is not the same project as it is for any other sector. In service providers, you sell people's time against jobs, and the gap between a job quoted and a job delivered is where the margin goes. That single fact changes what the software has to get right — and it is the thing generic, off-the-shelf products are least willing to accommodate. We build an ERP around it instead.
Most service businesses do not fail to adopt software because they dislike technology. They fail because the product on offer was designed for a different business and asks them to change their process to suit it. We start from your process. Service business owners and operations managers tell us how the work happens today — including the parts that only exist in someone's head — and the ERP is shaped to that. Month-end stops being a reconciliation exercise between four disagreeing registers.
What service business teams actually struggle with
Job status is known only by whoever is doing it
Master data for items, parties, taxes and locations — built into the ERP rather than bolted on afterwards.
Quotes are prepared from scratch each time, inconsistently
Purchase-to-payment and order-to-cash flows end to end — built into the ERP rather than bolted on afterwards.
Invoicing lags delivery by weeks, so cash arrives late
Stock valuation that ties to the accounts, not a separate sheet — built into the ERP rather than bolted on afterwards.

Technology we build it on
From first call to handover
We start with a discovery call to map how your service providers operation runs today. You then see a clickable prototype before development is committed, so the shape of the thing is agreed while changing it is still cheap. Development runs in weekly builds you can open and use — not a black box that reappears at the end. Delivery takes 10–20 weeks for a typical service business project, and we hand over source code, documentation and training.

Service Business ERP Development FAQs
How much does Service Business ERP Development cost in India?
Service Business ERP Development from Sabka Saathi typically costs ₹80,000 – ₹6,00,000+, depending on scope. A focused build covering master data for items, parties, taxes and locations sits at the lower end; a full system including GST-ready documents and returns-friendly exports sits at the upper end. We quote a fixed price against an agreed scope after a free discovery call, so there is no hourly billing surprise.
How long does it take to build an ERP for service businesses?
A typical service business ERP project takes 10–20 weeks from discovery to launch. You see a working prototype in the first two weeks and weekly builds after that, so progress is visible throughout rather than only at the end.
Why do service businesses need an ERP specifically?
Because you sell people's time against jobs, and the gap between a job quoted and a job delivered is where the margin goes. The direct consequence is one most service businesses will recognise: job status is known only by whoever is doing it. A generic product does not solve that — it needs job cards with assignment, status and completion evidence. Month-end stops being a reconciliation exercise between four disagreeing registers.
What technology is used to build it?
We build on Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, AWS. These are mainstream, well-documented technologies chosen deliberately so that any competent developer can maintain the system later — you are not locked into us. Source code and documentation are handed over at project close.
Do you work with service businesses outside major cities?
Yes. Delivery is remote — discovery calls, design reviews and weekly builds all happen online — so we work with service businesses across 258+ cities in 36 states, including district towns and smaller centres, on the same terms as metro clients.
Can it integrate with the software we already use?
Usually yes. We integrate with GST billing tools, Tally exports, payment gateways, WhatsApp Business API, logistics partners and most systems that expose an API or a file export. Where a system does not, we plan a migration path rather than forcing you to run both in parallel indefinitely.

Delivery is remote, so location is never a constraint. These are the cities with a dedicated page covering local context, pricing and process.
