Solar EPCs and rooftop installers lose margin in the gap between what the sales team promised, what the warehouse shipped, and what the commissioning engineer actually energised. This page is for project heads, COOs and finance controllers at solar developers, EPC contractors and C&I rooftop integrators who need one system tracking every kW from signed proposal through PPA-ready handover — with vendor payments, inventory and inspection sign-offs all on the same record.
What it does
Redian's solar project tracking solution gives you a single project record that runs the full lifecycle: site survey, design freeze, BOQ, procurement, dispatch, installation, net-metering, inspection, and commissioning. Every milestone is dated, owned and gated. Materials issued to site are reconciled against BOQ. Vendor invoices and subcontractor payments are linked to the milestone that releases them. When the finance team asks "where is the money on Site 47?", the answer is one click, not three spreadsheets.
The platform is built on a configurable workflow engine so a 5 MW utility-scale project and a 25 kW rooftop install can live in the same system, with different stage gates, document checklists and approval chains.
Where it fits
- EPC contractors running 50–500 active sites with mixed crews and subcontractors
- Rooftop integrators in the C&I segment where each project has 8–15 weeks of execution and a long inspection tail (DISCOM, net-meter, subsidy)
- IPPs and developers who own portfolios and need rolled-up commissioning forecasts for lender reporting
- OEM channel partners managing dealer-led installs across multiple states or countries
We deliver across India, East Africa, the Gulf and the UK from our five delivery hubs, so multi-geography rollouts run with local working hours.
Core modules
Sales-to-project handover. The proposal in CRM — system size, panel/inverter mix, expected generation, contract value — converts into a project with the BOQ pre-populated. No re-keying. Built on our Zoho CRM expertise or integrated with your existing CRM.
BOQ and procurement. Bill of quantities at the component level (modules, inverters, structures, cables, BoS, civil). Purchase orders raised against project budget. Vendor lead times tracked so a 6-week module delivery doesn't surprise the site team in week 5.
Inventory and dispatch. Material moves from central store to site store to "installed on roof." Serial-number capture for panels and inverters — critical for warranty, performance guarantees and theft reconciliation.
Site execution and crew scheduling. Daily progress against plan, photo evidence per milestone, crew attendance, safety incident log. Subcontractor work-package sign-off before their RA invoice is released.
Inspections and approvals. DISCOM applications, net-metering, electrical inspector, subsidy claims, CEIG/CEI approvals where applicable — each tracked as a milestone with document checklist and SLA timer.
Commissioning and handover. Performance test data, drone/thermography reports, as-built drawings, O&M handover pack. Project closes only when every document is in.
Financials linked end-to-end. Customer milestone billing, retention release, vendor payable schedules, GST/VAT compliance, project P&L. Integrates with your ERP or sits on a custom-built finance backbone.
Portfolio dashboards. MW under construction, MW commissioned this quarter, ageing of stuck inspections, vendor performance, project-level gross margin variance against bid.
Why Redian
We are an Advanced Zoho Partner since 2017 and we deliver enterprise systems for asset-heavy, milestone-driven industries — solar, infrastructure, BFSI lending. The same discipline that gets us into core banking work shows up here: clean state machines, audit trails, role-based approvals, and reports your CFO actually trusts.
We are CMMI Level 3 appraised and ISO certified. Our delivery teams have shipped project-tracking platforms for EPCs running hundreds of concurrent sites across India and East Africa. We do not start with a generic project tool and bend it; we start with your stage gates, your inspection landscape, your vendor contract terms.
Where it makes sense we extend the platform with AI/ML — generation forecasting against weather, anomaly detection on inverter telemetry, intelligent matching of crews to upcoming sites — and with digital transformation services across mobile field apps, IoT integration and customer portals.
Working with Redian
We typically engage with a 4–6 week discovery: current process map, BOQ structure, inspection regime by geography, ERP integration scope. From there we phase the rollout — pilot region first, then portfolio-wide — so cash flow benefits land before the platform is fully live.
