Software for interior and fit-out firms in Qatar
The D&B Operating System is interior design and fit-out software for firms in Qatar and Doha. It replaces scattered WhatsApp chats and spreadsheets with one system for enquiries, site visits, designs, quotations, agreements, projects, site updates, team roles and payments. It is built by BRANDSWOT Consultancy in India and runs white-label on your own domain and branding.

How interior work in Doha is organised
Qatar's building boom before the 2022 FIFA World Cup left Doha with a large stock of towers, hotels, malls and residential compounds. A good share of interior work now is refurbishment, re-fit and tenant fit-out in that stock, alongside new villas and commercial units in areas such as Lusail and The Pearl.
Firms are usually lean. One design-and-build company may handle design, approvals, joinery, MEP coordination and handover, using subcontractors for specialist trades. Clients, consultants and site teams expect fast replies on WhatsApp, and records of who approved what get lost in long chats.
Problems the D&B Operating System is built for
- Lost enquiries: every lead gets a source, a stage and a follow-up date.
- Quote confusion: quotes come from your rate cards, with versions and a record of the approved one.
- Approval gaps: design rounds and client comments sit on the project, not in a chat.
- Site blind spots: supervisors post photos and issues from the site in two taps.
- Late billing: milestone invoices follow the agreed payment schedule, with reminders.
- Muddled roles: each person sees only the projects and actions they need.
Eight modules, one record per project
The eight modules are CRM and follow-ups, Quotations, Agreements, Projects and tasks, Site updates, Invoices and payments, Team and roles, and Reports. Practice and Enterprise plans add multiple project managers and site teams, vendors, change requests and reports on pipeline, projects and payments. Owners get one dashboard showing pipeline value, late projects, money due and approvals waiting.
Security and control
Sign-in uses two-step verification with lock-out after failed attempts, and your firm keeps full admin control of its data.
Getting set up from India
BRANDSWOT Consultancy works with Qatar firms remotely, with no local office. After a demo and a written quote, the system is deployed on your domain with your logo, colours, stages, roles and rate cards. Training happens over video call. For QAR pricing, Arabic or data-location needs, tell us your requirement and we'll confirm what's supported.
Plans and early access
Studio suits firms of up to 10 people, Practice suits 10 to 30, and Enterprise suits larger firms or several offices with custom workflows. Pricing is on request. The product is in early access, so onboarding slots are limited.

D&B Operating SystemFit-out and joinery project management in Doha
Fit-out project management software in Qatar has to handle tight programmes for offices, hotels and retail units, with variations and approvals on record. The D&B Operating System puts each Doha fit-out on one timeline with task owners, delay alerts, vendor status and a snag list.
As joinery project management software, it lets workshops in Doha and across Qatar track survey, quote, tasks, installation and stage invoices. There is no cutting-list module. Small firms can use it as a construction project management app for small contractors in Qatar, with crews posting from a phone browser. Confirm your invoicing needs with us first.
Questions people ask
What is the best interior design software in Qatar?
The best choice depends on your firm. Compare tools on lead tracking, quotation and BOQ control, client approvals, site updates from a phone, milestone billing, user roles and whether the system carries your brand. The D&B Operating System is one option focused on design-and-build firms. Ask for a demo using a real Doha project before choosing.
Is there interior design quotation software for Doha firms?
Yes. The D&B Operating System's Quotations module builds quotes and BOQs from your own rate cards, keeps every version, and records which version the client approved. Approved quotes flow into the agreement, milestones and invoices, so rates don't drift between sales and accounts. That matters on Doha fit-outs, where scope tends to change between the first site visit and the final tender.
Is there a site progress app for Qatar fit-out teams?
Yes. Doha supervisors can use the Site updates module in any phone browser as their progress app. They see today's tasks, post photo updates, request materials, log labour and attendance, and flag issues to the project manager. The office sees each update straight away, with nothing to install.
Can small design and build contractors in Qatar afford it?
Pricing depends on firm size and the modules you need, and it is quoted in writing after a demo. The Studio plan is designed for firms of up to 10 people, so a small contractor isn't paying for features meant for large practices. Studio includes CRM, quotations, invoices, projects, tasks, site updates and owner, designer and site roles, on your own domain.
Does it include a client portal?
Clients can approve quote versions and comment on design rounds in one thread, all under your brand. For any further client-facing access, tell us your requirement and we'll confirm what's supported before you commit to a plan. Keeping approvals on the project, rather than in a WhatsApp group, gives you a clear record if a finish or price is questioned at handover.
