Sign shop management software that shows what needs doing next.
SignBas3 is sign shop management software that keeps every enquiry, quote, proof, job and invoice on one record — so you can see what each job actually made.
One job, all the way through
One system from enquiry to invoice.
The number, scope, files, dates and costs travel with the work instead of being rebuilt by every department.
In the workshop
Plan the work, see what is due, and update the job where it happens.
Jobs and production →On site
Installers get the job, and return photos, time and completion.
Installation and field work →Quote to job
What you sold is what production builds.
Quotes keep their revisions and acceptance. When the work becomes a job, the agreed scope goes with it.

Artwork approvals
The client approves a version—not an email attachment.
Every proof keeps its place in the history, and the approval records the person, time and exact version.
HP PrintOS connector
See the printers. Follow every metre back to the job.

PrintOS
Start the print filename with the job number. The output, substrate and ink land on that job, and a low-ink alert becomes a draft purchase order for someone to approve.
Start the filename with the SignBas3 job number.
Track the press, file, progress, substrate and queue.
The production record is associated with the right work.
Area, substrate and ink move into job Financials.
Configurable thresholds warn the right people early.
Selected cartridges are prepared for the preferred supplier.
Fitch AI
Fitch AI drafts the week. You decide what runs.
Fitch is the AI assistant built into SignBas3. It reads your tasks, bookings, staff skills and timesheets, then drafts next week's schedule. Nothing runs until a person approves it.
Purchasing, invoicing and reporting
Know what the job actually made.
Supplier spend, labour and invoicing stay attached to the job, so the margin is visible while you can still do something about it. Xero remains your accounting system.
Sign shop software questions
What sign companies need to know before choosing a system.
The right platform should connect the whole operating workflow—not simply replace one spreadsheet while leaving every handover intact.
What is sign shop management software and what does it manage?
Sign shop software connects enquiries, estimates, artwork approvals, production, scheduling, purchasing, installation, labour, invoicing and reporting around each job.
Is SignBas3 built specifically for sign companies?
Yes. SignBas3 is built around sign manufacturing, wide-format print, vehicle wrap and installation workflows—not generic project management.
Does SignBas3 replace accounting software?
SignBas3 runs sign-shop operations while Xero remains the certified accounting system. QuickBooks certification for invoices, bills and timesheets is in progress. MYOB is coming soon.
Can SignBas3 manage artwork, production and installation together?
Yes. Accepted scope, proof versions, production tasks, purchases, schedule, site information and completion evidence stay connected to the same job.
Can a sign company move from WorkflowMax to SignBas3?
SignBas3 provides a guided path through source preparation, mapping, imported records and representative reconciliation before the team relies on the result.
How should a sign shop compare management software?
Put one representative job through quoting, artwork, production, purchasing, installation, costing and accounting. The useful system preserves the story through every handover.
