For accurate job costing, it’s vital to identify costs at the earliest possible moment. Why wait for invoices to arrive to know how you’re doing on a job? In Construction Partner, purchase orders (PO’s) can be entered for just about anything, from job materials and inventory to office supplies.
Because the Construction Partner modules are tightly integrated, PO’s are automatically committed to jobs. Compare these costs to budgets and you’ll always know where you stand. Plus, with the Purchasing module, you’ll never pay more for materials than you’ve agreed to.
