Basementgrid (or Basement Grid) gives Singapore MCSTs a simple system to own their building's records โ€” with or without a Managing Agent. Every time an agent changes, an estate's history is at risk of walking out the door with them. Basementgrid keeps your building's "medical history" โ€” quotes, SOPs, vendor records โ€” with the estate, permanently. Why Councils Use Basementgrid? Data that stays put: Your quotes, SOPs, and vendor lists live with the building, not with whoever's managing it this year. Switching agents doesn't mean starting over. Verified work, not paperwork: Vendors log GPS-tagged photos and timestamped checklists before invoices get paid โ€” so maintenance is something you can actually see happened. 3-way match accounting: Quotes, work orders, and invoices reconcile automatically. Payments only go out for work that's confirmed. Built to be easy: If your Building Manager or vendors can use WhatsApp, they can use Basementgrid. No training required. Key Features - GPS-fenced site attendance and task completion - Automated Monthly Management Reports (MMR) - Integrated PayNow payment tracking - Full audit trail for AGMs and compliance Your estate's records, kept where they belong.
