UK companies use construction project management software to monitor the profitability and progress of the projects they deliver.
Businesses can use this type of software to estimate the cost of delivering different types of projects, identify actual costs, and compare them to calculate profit. It is critical that this software works with UK-specific regulations and handles the local workflows.
You can use Microsoft Outlook and Google Chrome (for Gmail) extensions to help you organize invoices when browsing email. When you are on the go, you can use Android and iOS apps.
After your approved subcontractor claims, the subcontractors can automatically attach the invoice themselves.
For all other invoices, there are unique accounts payable email addresses for each project and one for the company as well.
You can track the subcontract retainages automatically with Planyard. Due to this, you don’t have to keep track of them manually anymore in an excel file somewhere.
When the work is completed, you can just release the retainage and forward the info to accounting.
After you confirm your costs in Planyard, the costs will automatically be forwarded to your accounting software for paying out.
A project manager approves the costs and connects to jobs since they know what budget line-item the cost is connected to. Because of this, you don’t need back and forth discussions with accounting.
You can manage your main contracts in Planyard and see the cash flow and profitability for each job and package.
You can bill the client every month and ask for their approval. If they approve the invoice, the budget will also automatically be updated to reflect that.
“I would say that Planyard is a great way to easily and conveniently track your job costs in one place. It keeps track of all of the documents and the numbers in one place. If there’s some problem with the budget, it just tells you what you need to fix and you’ll be fine. It really just kind of thinks a step ahead for you.”
“Planyard is a live overview of your project. How they are performing financially and it is basically a CVR that is live all the time. I have saved a lot of time! It’s so much easier now that I am less reliant on Excel. When we’ve been awarded a project and we’ve uploaded the project on Planyard, I don’t need to look at spreadsheets anymore.”
