Cost Management
Visibility into the costs associated with your organization’s activities including specific projects, jobs or systems is essential to profitability. Being able to track costs throughout the job ensures that costs are applied as they were anticipated. Not being able to track costs leaves you open for costly overruns leaving your profits negatively impacted. Monitor progress, budget against estimate and correct issues during the project to ensure you come in on or under budget. This visibility also helps you drive better decisions about what areas of your business to grow, and where to make adjustments to maximize profitability of operations.
Cost Management enables you to:
- Compare costs against estimates throughout the project(s), make forecast and estimate revisions as well as produce job change orders where necessary to maintain profitability
- Understand how each cost item is impacting profitability and focus on most profitable components when considering projects or jobs to take
- Track your cost elements at a detailed level across labor, sub-contractors, vendors, materials and tools, using segmentation designed for tracking them
