Thoughtworks announced it has partnered with hipages Group to provide a one-stop platform that tradespeople can use to manage and grow their business. Tradiecore, hipages Group is deepening its offerings for tradies by introducing a one-stop platform combining both functionalities through a single app. Built as a SaaS solution, the new platform will encompass everything that a tradesperson needs to run their business efficiently, save time, while providing opportunities to increase revenue and retain customers.

It will include functionalities such as customer leads management, materials sourcing, scheduling, payments, and self-service options such as calls, texts and emails. As part of a long term partnership arrangement, one of the other initiatives that hipages Group and Thoughtworks worked together is to deliver a new and improved payments system, addressing challenges tradespeople faced collecting payments from customers and managing cash flow.
