Results you can count on

Accuracy

Roof fit, stringing, inverter limits & export constraints checked before you quote.

Speed

Clear briefs in → installer-ready design packs out, with fewer back-and-forths.

Scalability

Scale with 20/50/100 credit packs across branches and territories.

Case study (snapshot)

An SA retailer standardised quoting with SolarBPO. Across 60 designs, post-install variations dropped, average payback improved through better battery sizing, and DNSP submission time was reduced by standardised SLDs.

Results vary by site mix, retailer, and product set. We tune methodology to your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you design in OpenSolar or Pylon?
Both. We’ll work in whichever platform your sales team uses so quoting and revisions stay seamless.
What do you need from us to start?
Recent bill (or interval data), site address/roof photos or plans, product preferences (if any), and any DNSP/export limits. We provide a simple design brief form.
How many revisions are included?
Up to two revisions per design are included. Most jobs settle within the included options/revisions.
Can you handle export limits and protection design?
Yes. We regularly design for export-limited sites and include protection considerations to meet DNSP and AS/NZS requirements.
What’s the typical turnaround time?
Turnaround varies with pipeline load and complexity. We’ll confirm ETAs on receipt of your brief and keep you updated.
