Here is a sample of the productivity issues common to General Contractors and what we have developed to address those issues.
| Problem: Employees need to share the same data with a single point of entry and receive easy access to reports on key metrics. |
Problem: Costs and revenue projections take too much time. |

| Solution: Data is captured from Operations and fed into a single database where real-time reporting shows exactly how your business is performing. |
Solution: Tracking expenses vs. revenue is essential where job costs are fed by sub ledgers such as Accounts Payable, Payroll, Inventory and Equipment Management modules which send data for all financial information related to a project including labor, materials and overhead costs.

Solution: With the V6 Subcontract Management module, payments cannot be entered if they exceed the revised subcontract amount. Also, retentions are calculated by the percentage set-up in each subcontract. |
