FACILITIES MANAGEMENT

Orchestrate Multi-Site Facilities Workflows

Reconcile contractor completion dockets, client service acceptance, purchase orders and invoices across existing facilities systems—so account managers, contract-support teams and finance can resolve disputed jobs without bypassing site or client approvals.

The work order says complete. The account team still cannot close the job.

Job status lives in the CMMS, client acceptance in the client portal, approved spend in procurement and the invoice in AP. The expensive work begins when closing or billing a job depends on evidence no single system holds—the site sign-off, the valid certificate, the approved variation, the true SLA clock.

The completion docket records different hours from the approved quote. The site contact has not accepted the repair. A variation sits in a client's email and the purchase order is still awaiting sign-off. Contract support reconstructs the visit—job history, docket, quote, PO, invoice—then chases the subcontractor and explains to finance which charges are eligible. Multiply that across portfolios running different client systems, and each closeout becomes a small investigation with payment held up behind it.

JOB CLOSEOUT & BILLING

Release a completed job for invoicing only when the evidence agrees.

The technician's completion note says finished, but the client cannot yet accept the work: site sign-off, hours or the approved variation may be absent. The contract-support team reconstructs the visit before finance can process the supplier invoice or prepare client billing.

JOB CLOSEOUT & BILLINGCompleted-Job-to-Invoice Evidence Blueprint

01Context

Assemble the whole job before it is closed or billed

Tie the completion claim to the site acceptance, approved spend and invoice record that decide whether the job can be released.

Work order & historyThe WO, its scope, priority and every status event

Completion docketTechnician notes, hours and materials claimed on the visit

Site sign-off & visit logsArrival/departure records and the site contact’s acceptance

Approved quote & POThe authorised scope, rates and purchase order behind the work

Client scope & contractSOW terms, NTE limits and any variation agreed in correspondence

Supplier invoiceThe submitted invoice lines matched against the approved work

Missing-evidence requestsDockets, photos or approvals requested and still outstanding

Prior holds & queriesEarlier disputes, holds and resolutions on this job or site

02Workflow

From completion claim to an authorised invoice decision

The site or client accepts the work and finance releases payment; Orcaworks assembles, reconciles and prepares.

Completion docket or invoice arrives
Retrieve WO, site, quote and invoice records
Check evidence against approved scope & PO
Document conflicts & missing proof
Request missing evidence from contractor or site
Prepare reconciled acceptance pack & recommendation
Client accepts service; finance releases or holds
Record accepted job & invoice decision
Closed job or reason-coded hold with owner

03Interaction

Each authority decides its part; the evidence comes assembled

Contract support, the client approver and finance each see the same source-linked case instead of reconstructing it from inboxes.

Built around the FM, client and finance estate you already run.

Orcaworks treats your CMMS or CAFM, client portals, contractor and compliance systems, procurement and ERP/AP as the authoritative sources—and writes back only through permitted, configured interfaces. Where an incumbent already handles a workflow end to end, use it; read and write access is confirmed per account during discovery, not assumed.

HOW ORCAWORKS FITS

Reconcile the job around the systems that remain authoritative.

Orcaworks is not another CMMS, CAFM, dispatch or client-portal system. It sits above the installed estate and does the case work that remains when closing, billing or reporting a job depends on evidence spread across the provider, the contractor and the client.

YOUR SYSTEMS STAY AUTHORITATIVE

The CMMS, client portal and ERP remain the records of truth.

The FM platform owns the work order, the client portal the acceptance, AP the payment. Orcaworks works the case around them and writes back only the authorised update.

A CASE AROUND THE JOB

Every docket, certificate and invoice gets its evidence in one place.

The site sign-off beside the completion claim. The client’s approval beside the variation. Orcaworks links every statement to its source and keeps record, evidence and decision distinct.

NAMED DECISION OWNERS

Sites, clients, competent persons and finance keep the consequential calls.

Orcaworks reconciles, requests and prepares within the contract’s authority map. The site accepts the work, the client approves the spend, the competent person judges the certificate, finance releases payment.

AUDIT THE OUTCOME

Every closed, held or escalated job keeps its evidence and approver.

Evidence used, requests sent, who held authority, what changed in the work-order or finance record—retained per case so the account director and the client can replay why a job was released or held.

All eight applications in operating detail: trigger, evidence, decision owner, permitted system action, incumbent boundary and workflow metric across closeout, delivery and client reporting.

GET STARTED

Bring us one disputed job. Completed-job-to-invoice is the usual first.

Start with a live closeout queue where site acceptance, approved spend and the invoice disagree—or a compliance pack with missing certificates. We’ll baseline the review effort and show you how Orcaworks turns it into a governed workflow with an authorised end state.
