Industry — Construction

Construction dashboards for growing contractors.

If you're over $500K revenue, the biggest risk is margin erosion you don't see until it's too late. Dashboards turn job data into early warnings and weekly clarity.

  • Job Costing
  • WIP
  • Cash Flow
  • Change Orders
  • AR / Retainage

What it looks like

An executive dashboard built around your jobs.

Margin by job, WIP, cash position, retainage — one source of truth that updates as your data does.

Where contractors get stuck

Four bottlenecks dashboards solve.

  1. Project profitability blind spots

    What's happening

    Budget vs actual drifts quietly across labor, subs, materials, and change orders.

    How dashboards help

    Dashboards track margin by job and phase, flagging variance early — before it becomes a write-off.

  2. Cash flow uncertainty (retainage + timing)

    What's happening

    Invoices, retainage, and vendor payments create unpredictable cash pressure.

    How dashboards help

    Cash dashboards connect AR, retainage, AP, and projections so you can plan draws and payroll confidently.

  3. WIP reporting that's late or inconsistent

    What's happening

    WIP gets updated after month-end, so leadership decisions happen without the full picture.

    How dashboards help

    A standardized WIP dashboard keeps pipeline, billings, and backlog visible weekly.

  4. Manual reporting across systems

    What's happening

    Accounting, PM tools, and spreadsheets don't align — and reports take hours.

    How dashboards help

    One source of truth: automated rollups for revenue, costs, margin, and operational KPIs.

Construction KPIs

The metrics leaders actually use:

  • Gross margin by job / phase
  • Budget vs Actual (labor, subs, materials)
  • WIP: under/over billings
  • AR aging + retainage outstanding
  • Backlog + pipeline value
  • Change order count & value
