Acumatica Construction Edition

UNLEASH the Power of Acumatica Construction Edition

Unlock your business's full potential with Acumatica Construction ERP, the flexible solution that seamlessly unifies all departments—from construction project management and accounting to field operations—empowering construction companies to streamline processes and drive growth.

Acumatica Construction Edition: Implementation and Consulting Services

Running your construction business efficiently and effectively is demanding work, whether you're a general contractor, specialty contractor, subcontractor, land developer, or builder. You need technology solutions that put every piece of information at your fingertips to help you and your team thrive.

Your enterprise resource planning (ERP) system fills this role. Good construction ERP software will unite every corner of your business, from accounting to everyday management on the jobsite. With that said, not every ERP system is up to the job, and not every implementation partner will give you the experience you need.

Automatica Construction Edition is a cloud-based construction ERP solution specifically designed to encompass the project management, accounting, and field operations needs of businesses in this unique industry. Using this software effectively can drive:

  • Streamlined everyday operations for your firm.
  • Real-time visibility of all your data and assets.
  • Improved profitability and a secure bottom line.

To make sure you achieve these benefits, you can pick Net at Work as your implementation and consulting partner. An ERP refresh is a great chance to improve the way your business functions, and you should be sure you're making the most of the moment.

Why Acumatica Construction Edition?

Acumatica Construction Edition isn't just another ERP software tool. The “Construction Edition” name isn't just for show — its feature set is specifically tailored to solve the issues you deal with every day in the construction space.

One simple but important fact to note is that Acumatica Cloud ERP is a comprehensive tool that reaches across departments and teams. Your office personnel can use it to keep your books balanced while your field teams organize their daily work using the platform, and while project managers oversee the whole operation.

Some of the most demanding tasks in your day are simpler when handled through one consistent and convenient platform. These include:

  • Project cost tracking and forecasting: Tracking real and projected costs through the lifespan of a project requires managing a wide variety of financial and operational data. Unifying information and departments through Acumatica construction software makes this easier, from accurate estimates to real-time updates.
  • Subcontractor management: A single platform acting as a source of truth helps connect internal teams and subcontractors while clearly exchanging data.
  • Compliance reporting: Complying efficiently with regulations requires easy access to accurate, centralized data — exactly what a construction-focused ERP provides.
  • Communication with field staff on the jobsite: Mobile access enables crews, managers, and office staff to work from the same real-time data, no matter where they are.

In many cases, value comes back to Acumatica's cloud architecture. Real-time updates from anywhere in your organization are instantly accessible to every other team. The cloud model is scalable, flexible, and adaptable to your unique workflows.
