General Construction

At Dexter + Chaney we understand the business needs of General Contractors. The challenges of multiple subcontractors, keeping track of your WIP schedule, and allocating equipment costs are all business challenges that need to be met efficiently and effectively.

 

Key General Construction Modules

Job Cost

Spectrum's Job Cost module provides project managers, controllers, and owners with all the information necessary to keep jobs on track and spot any potential cost overruns.

Accurate and timely monitoring of job costs and profitability can make or break any company. Job Cost provides an easy way of monitoring profitability on any job with completely up-to-date information. Tight integration with other Spectrum™ modules allows updates to Job Cost virtually as soon as information is entered into other modules. For example, daily time card entry in Payroll ensures accurate labor costs at all times.

Document Imaging

Imaging technology has been around for years. With the advent of Spectrum™ Document Imaging, however, it's now practical for construction management. That's because Document Imaging is not just an add-on. With Spectrum Construction Management Software, it's fully integrated, built in from the ground up.

Spectrum Document Imaging lets you incorporate documents - AP invoices, time cards, change orders, etc. - into your everyday workflow. For example, when a vendor invoice arrives, you immediately enter it into Spectrum, press the Image button and put the invoice into the scanner. The invoice is scanned and the image is automatically indexed and attached to the invoice. Automatic indexing eliminates the possibility of error. Reporting is immediately available to show pending invoices, and how long they've been outstanding (very helpful at month end for WIP and for cash requirements reporting). The approver - a Project Manager, for example - receives an email announcing that invoices are ready for approval. The approver goes to the invoice approval screen to view pending invoices. Thanks to Document Imaging, the approver can view the original invoice on screen and can even attach notes to the invoice with questions or instructions. Once approved, the invoices are routed back to accounting for payment.
