Software for Miami's building-products distributors.
Futurise builds contractor ordering portals, quote-to-order desks and delivery tracking for the building-products distributors supplying South Florida's construction trade — lumber, roofing, masonry, plumbing and HVAC houses selling to contractors on account, quoting by the job, delivering to a site that changes.
Futurise is a remote studio with a US line, +1 (954) 469-9764, answered at any hour. We have no Florida office and don't pretend to; we meet in Florida for the projects that call for it.
See it first, on fictional data: orders.futurise.studio is a wholesale ordering portal and factory.futurise.studio a production tracker.
South Florida's construction trade runs on distributors whose customer is a contractor with a job, a deadline and a credit line — and, in storm season, a county's worth of contractors calling the same week. The counter absorbs quotes, releases, partials, returns and deliveries to sites without addresses, mostly on paper and in the head of the person who knows every contractor by truck.
We build the desk that holds the job: the quote, the releases against it, the credit check at entry rather than at the dock, the delivery with a site contact and a window. The contractor gets a portal with open quotes, releases and invoices on a phone from the site. The counter's time goes to the jobs that need a person.
It runs alongside the accounting you keep.
Where it breaks
The three things we keep finding.
The quote in a binder
Priced by hand, released by phone, disputed from memory.
Credit hold at the dock
Picked before anyone checked the account. Now it is a conversation on the loading bay.
Storm-season volume on a fixed counter
Every contractor in the county calls the same week. The counter is the ceiling.
What we build
One slice first, then the next.
The one slice of your order flow costing you hours today: an ordering portal, an order desk or a production tracker. Then the next.
Contractor portal
Open quotes, releases, invoices and reorders per account, at the account's own pricing, from a job site on a phone.
Quote-to-order desk
Quote, release, partial and return as one record; credit checked at entry.
Delivery tracking
Site contact, window, driver, proof of delivery attached to the order, not to a text thread.
On the ground
What’s actually different here.
Every local fact carries its source and its year.
Miami-Dade has 277 lumber and construction-materials wholesalers employing 2,132 people; Broward has 147 employing 1,876; Palm Beach 103.
Across Miami's ZIP codes there are 179 construction-materials wholesalers and 167 hardware, plumbing and HVAC-equipment wholesalers.
Statewide, Florida's 1,572 construction-materials wholesalers employ 20,788 people — 548 in lumber and millwork, 346 in brick, stone and masonry, 317 in roofing, siding and insulation.
Florida holds 8.7% of all US construction-materials wholesalers (computed from the 2023 state and national files).
Straight answers
The questions, answered up front.
Can it check credit before an order ships?
Yes. A credit or approval step between the contractor pressing submit and the order becoming real is one of the things that make a custom build worth it over an off-the-shelf portal. It stops the order at entry, visibly, with a reason.
Can we see it before we call?
Yes: orders.futurise.studio is a live wholesale ordering portal and factory.futurise.studio a live production tracker, both on fictional data. We don't show client screens or name clients — every Florida client we have is confidential — so the demos are the proof.
What does it cost?
There is no price list, because there is no standard build. You get a fixed price in writing after a 20-minute call, before any work starts. Most first builds go live in two to four weeks, training is part of the build, and 30 days of care are included. Call +1 (954) 469-9764 or book at futurise.studio/book .
Bring the step that breaks.
