Commercial Contractors

Project managers at commercial contractors, primarily involved in retail, factory, or building construction, have a number of unique needs. Estimating, bid management, job costing, scheduling, subcontractor selection, document control, and purchasing are all key to keeping a large project on target and profitable. ComputerEase ensures that the needs of decision-makers are met, because a project manager should be in control of a job – not the other way around.

Accurate job estimating and bid management are critical to winning a job and determining the best subcontractors for the assignment. ComputerEase makes this process easier. The job costing tools let you view costs from previous jobs so your estimates are more accurate, while the bid management tools keep you on top of available subs and help you quickly evaluate bids, key submission dates, and competitive pricing issues.

After winning a job, subcontractor management, change order management, purchasing control, and scheduling become priorities. ComputerEase construction management software keeps you informed of any changes within these areas that can affect your bottom line.

If a chosen subcontractor cannot meet the job needs, the subcontractor center provides you with the information necessary to quickly qualify a new sub and issue a new contract for work.

If a critical item needed for the job is out of stock from your chosen vendor, ComputerEase purchasing tools will quickly tell you who else has the item at an ideal price, and allow you to order it right away, keeping your schedule on track.

Keeping in touch with the project site and controlling the multitude of papers generated on a job is critical, and with FieldEase, it’s easy. A project manager can remotely input data and retrieve information needed to make pressing decisions from anywhere with Internet access. The office is always aware of site changes that might affect other aspects of a job.

These are just a few of the many ways ComputerEase construction management software helps you streamline your organization's project management system for maximum profitability.
