Principals usually ask these questions first.

Syntekta is practice management software for architecture practices in South Africa. It keeps a practice's projects, stages, fees, deadlines, hours, messages and client communication in one record, organised by the six SACAP work stages.

It is for South African architecture practices, from a principal with a small team to a practice with several studios. Principals, architects, technologists and administrators each see the part of the record their work needs.

Every project opens with the six stages already on it: inception, concept and viability, design development, documentation and procurement, construction, and close-out. Each stage carries its dates, its share of the fee from the guideline scale and the person it is waiting on, and closing a stage makes its fee claim ready.

Syntekta works alongside the tools you already draw and model in. Your drawings and models stay where they are; Syntekta keeps the register of which revision is current, what was issued to whom and what the client approved.

Yes. Syntekta runs in the browser on a computer, a tablet or a phone, so the record goes wherever the work does.

Yes. Each client signs in at your practice's own address on Syntekta, under your name, and sees their own project's stage, its dates and what is waiting on them. A client never sees another client's work.

Only if you want them to. Showing the agreed fee at the client's door is a module that the practice switches on or off.

Only the people your practice invites. Each practice is isolated at the database, and nobody at Syntekta looks at your practice's data without your approval; every such session is timed and logged.

Your data is kept in a secure data centre in Ireland, in the European Union, and every connection to it is encrypted.

The price depends on the modules your practice switches on. Book a demonstration and we will quote for your practice.
