PAT testing software
for scheduling, certificates & invoicing.

Why UK PAT testing businesses choose HiveSuite

PAT testing is a compliance-driven, recurring business. You are managing a growing client list of offices, shops, landlords, schools, and construction companies - each with different testing frequencies, different numbers of appliances, and different site requirements. Every visit generates certificates and documentation that needs to be stored and accessible. And you are scheduling repeat visits across dozens or hundreds of clients while keeping on top of quoting and invoicing. HiveSuite gives PAT testing businesses one platform to manage clients, scheduling, documentation, quoting, invoicing, and reporting.

HiveSuite is UK-built, priced in GBP including VAT, and designed for how UK service businesses actually work. No per-user pricing traps, no feature locks - every plan includes everything from day one.

Recurring test schedules that run themselves

Most PAT testing contracts involve periodic visits - annually for low-risk office equipment, quarterly or more frequently for construction sites and high-use environments. HiveSuite supports recurring jobs, so you can set up test schedules for each client that automatically generate jobs when they are due. No more relying on spreadsheets or diary reminders to track which client is due next. When a job is generated, it appears in your schedule ready to be planned and assigned.

Certificates and compliance documentation

Every PAT test generates documentation - certificates, test results, fail reports, and remedial action notes. HiveSuite lets you attach documents and photos directly to jobs and customer records, creating a complete compliance trail for each client. When a landlord or facilities manager needs to see the testing history for a property, everything is stored in one place. Clients can also access their documentation through the customer portal.

Growing your client base with online enquiries

HiveSuite includes embeddable enquiry forms you can add to your website, Facebook page, or Google Business Profile. When a potential client fills in the form with their business type, number of appliances, and site address, HiveSuite creates a customer record and draft quote automatically. No copying details from emails or voicemails. Capture every enquiry even when you are out on a testing job and cannot answer the phone.

Quoting and invoicing

HiveSuite lets you send professional quotes for testing contracts - whether a one-off visit or an annual agreement. When the customer approves, the work becomes scheduled jobs. Invoice on completion of each visit or set up recurring invoices for contract clients. Stripe is included on all plans if you want to offer card payments, or you can use your own payment methods. The invoice reminder board tracks every outstanding payment at a glance.

Scheduling your week

HivePlanner is a visual drag-and-drop calendar that lets you plan your testing visits across the week. See all your upcoming jobs at a glance, and adjust the schedule when priorities change - drag a job to a new slot and it updates automatically. If you run a team of testers, assign specific jobs to each person and see everyone's schedule in one view.

Field access via HiveCrew

Whether you work alone or run a team, HiveCrew gives you access to your job list, client details, site notes, and previous test records on your phone. Log time, attach certificates, add notes, and mark jobs complete from site. Everything syncs back in real time. HiveCrew is available as a native app on Android and as an installable Progressive Web App on iOS with push notification support.

Customer portal for your clients

The HiveSuite customer portal gives your clients a branded login where they can view their testing history, download certificates, approve quotes, and pay invoices. For facilities managers and landlords managing multiple properties, this means they can check compliance status and access documentation without needing to call or email you.

Reporting with HiveIntel

HiveIntel is HiveSuite's built-in reporting and AI analytics tool. Ask questions in plain English - "how many tests did I complete last month", "which clients are due for re-testing this quarter", "what is my revenue from annual contracts" - and get instant answers from your own data as charts, tables, or dashboards. Track testing volumes, monitor revenue, and plan capacity with real data.
