01
Budget and phasing
The contract sum is broken into phases, trades and cost codes, with revisions kept under an audit trail.
Know your project cost while the project is still running
Budget, commitment, progress claim and retention tracked per project and per phase, so a cost overrun surfaces in week three, not at handover.

What we hear
What we hear from property development and construction teams
The problems we hear most — and what changes once the system holds the process.
01
Cost known only at the end
Committed cost from purchase orders and subcontracts posts against the budget as it is incurred.
02
Variation orders lost
Variations are recorded against the project with their own approval and billing trail.
03
Progress claims manual
Claim certificates, retention and progressive billing generated from project progress.
04
Subcontractor exposure unclear
Subcontract commitments, certificates and retention are visible per trade.
05
Multiple projects, one ledger
Cost centres and phases report separately and consolidate cleanly.
Capabilities
What we implement for property development and construction
Configured on standard platform capability wherever possible, extended only where your process genuinely differs.
Project budgeting and phasing
Budgets by phase, trade and cost code, revised with an audit trail.
Committed cost and purchase control
Purchase orders draw against the budget the moment they are raised.
Subcontract management
Subcontract values, certificates and retention tracked per trade.
Progress claims and retention
Progressive billing, certification and retention release handled in system.
Job costing and WIP
Actual versus budget and work in progress reported per project.
Project dashboards
Cost to complete and margin by project, live rather than at handover.
Day in the operation
A project from budget to final account
Every commitment, claim and variation lands against the project while the project is still running.
- Cost-to-complete against budget
- Weekly
- Subcontract commitment and retention
- Per trade
- Retention withheld and released on terms
- Auto
02
Award and commit
Purchase orders and subcontracts draw against the budget the moment they are awarded, so committed cost is never a surprise.
03
Site progress
Progress by phase is entered by site staff or imported from your existing site reporting instead of rebuilt in a spreadsheet.
04
Progress claim
Certified progress produces the claim, with retention withheld automatically at the agreed percentage.
05
Subcontractor certificates
Work-done certificates, back-charges and retention are tracked per trade, so exposure per subcontractor is always visible.
06
Variation orders
Variations carry their own approval, cost and billing trail rather than being absorbed into the base contract.
07
Cost to complete
Actual, committed and forecast cost report against budget weekly, so an overrun surfaces while it can still be fixed.
08
Final account and release
Final claim, retention release against defect liability and project margin close out from posted data.
