Quality you can evidence. Across every CALA site.

Buyers, funders, and regulators now expect a clear evidence trail at handover. Sablono gives CALA Homes one structured system to build that trail consistently, across every site.

Quality evidence breaking down across CALA's portfolio?

Managing quality consistently across a premium portfolio is hard when evidence lives in site diaries, email threads, and spreadsheets that vary from site manager to site manager. By the time a buyer, funder, or regulator asks for it, assembling that record is slow, incomplete, and inconsistent — and it reflects on CALA, not just the site team.

What Sablono changes for CALA Homes

Sablono is a construction execution and quality management platform. Site teams use it to record quality checks, progress, and sign-offs in one place as work happens — so the evidence trail builds itself, rather than needing to be reconstructed at handover.

Foundation icon-1 Consistent quality tracking

Site teams log checks and snags against a structured process as work progresses, not from memory at the end of a shift. The same standard applies on every site, regardless of who is managing it.

  • Issues are logged, assigned, and tracked to close-out in one system
  • No variation between sites in how quality is recorded or evidenced
 
Foundation icon (2) Evidence-ready handover

Because every check is captured as it happens, the handover record builds automatically — not assembled under pressure before completion. When a buyer, funder, or regulator asks for evidence, it is already there.

  • One exportable record per plot, ready when it is needed
  • Removes the last-minute scramble that delays handover sign-off
 
Foundation icon (3) Portfolio-wide visibility

Every site reporting into the same system means patterns and risks surface across the whole portfolio, not just on individual developments. Head office and regional teams get a live view without chasing updates from site.

  • Spot recurring quality issues across multiple developments early
  • Give leadership the oversight they need without adding reporting burden to site teams
 

How Sablono Helps

One platform across every CALA site
Connect every site team, subcontractor, and trade across CALA's portfolio in one structured system. Work sequences are clear, handovers between trades are digital, and progress is visible from site to head office — without the chasing, the spreadsheets, or the end-of-day phone calls.

No more gaps between trades
Delays between trades are one of the biggest causes of programme slip on residential developments. Sablono keeps work moving by making handovers between teams structured and trackable — so the next activity starts when it should, not when someone eventually chases it.

Quality evidence that builds itself
Capture quality checks and sign-offs on site as work happens, not at the end of the week. Every plot builds its own complete evidence record in real time — ready for buyers, funders, and regulators without the last-minute scramble at handover.

FAQs

We already have site managers tracking quality. Why do we need a platform? Most site teams do track quality — but in their own way, with their own systems. The problem isn't whether quality is being managed on any individual site; it's that the evidence looks different from site to site, and at handover it has to be pulled together manually. Sablono gives every site the same structured record from day one, so the evidence is consistent and ready when it's needed — regardless of who's managing the site.
Does this add more work for site teams? The platform is designed for use on site, on mobile, as work happens — not as an end-of-day admin task. Most teams find that logging checks in real time is faster than reconstructing records later, and it removes the back-and-forth at handover when someone needs to verify what was done and when.
We work with a range of subcontractors and trades. Can they all use it?

Yes. Sablono connects the full supply chain — main teams, subcontractors, and specialist trades — within the same system. Each party only sees what's relevant to their scope of work, and handovers between teams are managed digitally rather than by phone or email

How long does it take to get up and running on a new development? Implementation is typically structured around your programme, not the other way around. Most teams are set up and logging activity within a few weeks of onboarding. Sablono works with CALA's existing project structure rather than requiring you to reshape how developments are planned.
What does the evidence record actually look like at handover? Each plot produces a complete, exportable record of every quality check, sign-off, and issue that was logged during the build — with timestamps, responsible parties, and close-out confirmation. It can be shared with buyers, funders, or regulators in a consistent format, rather than assembled from scattered documents.
We operate across multiple regions. Can it work at portfolio scale? That's exactly where Sablono adds the most value. Because every site operates within the same system, regional and head office teams get a live view across the whole portfolio — not just aggregated reports from individual site managers. Quality trends, programme risks, and resource gaps become visible across developments rather than site by site.
