What you don't know could cost you!

Your Job Cost software system should be an invaluable tool, making all this information readily available to the appropriate people and empowering them to identify and address any issues before it is too late. Here are a few things to look for in an integrated Job Cost system.

• Integration with Accounts Payable and Payroll so that the expenses are automatically assigned to the appropriate job and phase, and do not need to be rekeyed into Job Cost. 
• Flexible Job Cost configuration allowing the costs to be broken out by phases/cost codes and within each phase, by categories like labor, materials, equipment, subs, etc.
• Electronic Document Management to provide quick and easy access to the variety of job related documents, tied directly to the appropriate records in Job Cost, and eliminating all the issues that come with trying to manage all that paper.
• Easy access to Job Cost Reporting tools which offer the flexibility to provide reports in a format that will be meaningful to your team.

If your system isn’t providing these things, maybe it is time to find a solution that will. Having the right tools can make all the difference. Watch this brief introduction to the INTERAC Job Manager to see what you are missing.

Is your team getting critical job cost information in a timely manner, so they can make the necessary adjustments which ultimately determine whether jobs are profitable or not?
