Purchase examples
Common spending needs in this industry
Material purchases
Timber and sheet goods may need to be bought before a customer pays the final balance. Allow for grade, lead times and wastage when estimating the order.
Workshop space
Extra storage or assembly space can separate finishing work from production. Price the fit-out and any lease deposit alongside the continuing workshop overheads.
