How are you using Programa?

We implemented Programa primarily for its FF&E capabilities, which became essential for more efficiently curating, managing procurement, and monitoring budgets for our client projects. This allowed us to issue these with transparency and speed.

As we become more accustomed with the available features, we are gradually expanding our use of Programa.

Programa has been a game-changer in populating schedules efficiently, eliminating the need for copious spreadsheets.

We cannot wait to see what else Programa has planned - they really do understand the frustrations interior designers have faced for years, bringing industry solutions via a user-friendly platform.

What challenges did the platform help overcome in a recent project?

Programa was crucial in managing a modest budget and strict timeline in a recent project to transform a former post office in Snowdonia, North Wales. Its time tracking and budget management tools provided a clear overview of resources, while the Client Dashboard facilitated remote communication and efficient decision-making. Programa saved time and ensured efficiency and transparency, resulting in a contemporary design harmonising with its surroundings.
