Construction context
Why Project Management works differently in Construction
In Construction, construction and contracting processes center on sector-specific concepts such as project budget, progress payment, subcontractor management. In construction and contracting, project budget, progress payments and subcontractor management require functions to see cost, progress and cash flow together at project level.
Qera ERP's Project Management module is set up around how the construction sector works: Gathers budget, progress, progress payment and cost in one project view to catch variance early.
- When project budget isn't compared with actual cost, overruns are noticed too late.
- When progress-payment processes are handled by hand, work progress, deductions and payments come out wrong.
- When subcontractor contracts, progress and payments are scattered, control is lost.

Project card and address management
