Denaro gives you complete control over your procurement strategies, enhancing QS and office productivity while allowing you to improve margins on materials.

The system enables you to manage workflow and delegated authorities, and keep careful track of approvals and pricing.

Site managers and staff can log POs on a smartphone or tablet. Receipting goods is easy and invoices can be automatically approved by matching them to the purchase order.

DENARO also eliminates the invoice “paper chase”. We have set up a scanning bureau using the industry-leading Kofax software to extract invoice information and load it automatically into CostCon.

Labour hours are often the biggest risk item on a project.

ONtime improves timesheet accuracy so you can better manage budget verses actual hours worked on a job. ONtime allows staff to enter their times into a smartphone app, which are then approved by the site manager, or the system can be set-up so the site manager logs time for their staff as the week progresses.

Office staff can monitor that times are being entered progressively as the week unfolds, significantly improving efficiency. Our clients have seen payroll go from a whole day’s work, to being done and dusted in a couple of hours.

CostCon and ONtime work with the leading enterprise payroll systems, including IMS Payroll, ACE Payroll, MYOB Payroll and iPayroll.

CostConnect easily links Microsoft Excel spreadsheets directly into the CostCon database. Staff simply need to outline the information they want to see, and we’ll replicate that in spreadsheet format.

Excel provides the flexibility to display the information in numbers, dashboard format or charts and graphs.

Previously, tailored reporting would be time consuming to create, but CostConnect makes things easy, with a comprehensive suite of standard templates to rapidly prototype reports.

Our clients typically use CostConnect reporting for specialist areas such as WIP, Cost to complete, specialist client reporting and a variety of cashflow reporting.

Designed to tightly manage large-scale operations and projects, PREDICTO allows you to fully model a project budget across each month through to completion. PREDICTO enables a QS to run a comprehensive forecast cost at completion report at any point.

By loading forecast expenditure into PREDICTO at the beginning of the job, you can keep constant review of progress and variations against an established budget. PREDICTO fully tracks any revisions or transfers, requiring a PM or QS to find savings or yield some margin whenever costs change.

For the project teams, PREDICTO provides a much tighter level of control. Management and finance staff can then roll up the forecasts across multiple projects to get a consolidated view of cashflow in the coming months and way into the future.

 

DOCMAN is a powerful yet easy-to-use Document and Project management software application that manages, finds, and tracks drawings and associated project related items.

Our construction clients have chosen DOCMAN to handle a wide variety of specific functions, including a simple project filing system for all project-related emails, drawings, correspondence, photos, RFI’s. It is also a useful tool to ensure Health & Safety requirements are met, managing site-specific safety plans and associated H&S compliance.

DOCMAN handles some tricky things really simply; the app works easily between computer, tablet or smart phone. This includes providing version control of documents and information. For example all the versions of a project drawing are stored but staff only have access to the “latest version” – the project QS would have secure access to the older versions if required.

DOCMAN is a fully integrated function of CostCon so it is easy for a staff member to attribute a photo to a particular VO or job, making it straightforward for site staff to take a picture and then log that to the project.
