Stay in control

Know what the work is costing while the job is running

The estimate is what you allowed. The hours and orders are what happens next. Keeping them in separate places makes the job harder to read.

Contractable brings those records back to the work they belong to. You can check the allowance against the costs being recorded, then decide what needs your attention before the next order or the next shift.

Not a construction business? The same structure works wherever work is quoted, costed and billed — a configurable ERP where you keep your existing general ledger. Beyond construction.

The proof

Start with the records behind the number

A cost against the work. A timesheet against the task. Open the records and check what has been entered.
