Software for bespoke and made-to-measure tailors

One suit, from consultation to Ready

Take an example order: a two-piece suit and a waistcoat. The waistcoat is wanted a week after the suit. Each garment gets its own job, its own due date and its own place on the board, so a late waistcoat never hides inside a suit that is on time.

The Bespoke preset gives you these stages. Rename, add or reorder them to match your house.

1. Consultation. Cloth agreed, deposit taken, first measurements saved.
2. Cutting. The cloth is issued to the job, so it leaves stock and joins the job cost.
3. Baste fitting. Booked on the calendar, with a clash check against your other fittings.
4. Stitching. The coat maker opens their own jobs and sees the care note and the materials for the step.
5. Forward fitting. Changes are saved as a new measurement set.
6. Finishing. The finisher types in the hours spent.
7. Ready. Margin shows here. Handover is recorded with a photo and signature.

What the suit really cost

Bespoke prices are often set on feel. Tailoq adds up the material issued to the job, the labour typed in and any outside work. A worked example with made-up figures:

If the customer brought their own cloth, mark it as customer-supplied. Nothing is issued from your stock, so the same job costs 990. If someone forgets to type hours, the job uses a standard estimate and marks it Standard, so you can tell a guess from a real figure.

Made-to-measure runs differently, and has its own preset

Made-to-measure usually works from a pattern block with no baste fitting. Choosing the preset gives you a different flow and adds a QC stage.

At QC, a reject goes back to the stage you choose, with a reason and an optional photo. Doing both kinds of work? Keep the stages that fit and add the rest. See how production stages work.
