Know a project's real cost while it's still running


Materials, subcontractors, and labor all tracked against the project they belong to, so a cost overrun 
shows up while there is still time to act on it.

 —= Who this is for =—

The Budget Was Fine Until It Wasn't

Project costs get tracked in spreadsheets that lag behind what's actually happening on site, so an overrun only becomes visible once the project is already over budget.

Every Subcontractor Invoice Is a Manual Check

Verifying subcontractor invoices against agreed rates and work completed takes real time every month, and mistakes are easy to miss.

Running Several Projects at Once, Blind

Managing five sites through five separate trackers means nobody has a real view of the business until someone manually pulls it together.

Built around project-based cost control
Project-level costing, tracked as it happens 

Materials, labor, and subcontractor costs recorded against the project they belong to, so actual cost versus budget is a live number, not a month-end reconstruction.

Purchasing and site materials tied to the project 

Material purchases linked directly to the project consuming them, so cost allocation happens automatically instead of being sorted out afterward.

 Subcontractor and vendor tracking 

Agreed rates, work completed, and invoices checked against the same project record, reducing manual verification and billing errors.

Progress billing and milestones 

Invoice clients based on project milestones or percentage complete, matched to what has actually been delivered.

Multi-project visibility in one view 

Every active project reporting into the same system, so a real view of the business does not depend on someone manually consolidating spreadsheets.

Cost control built for project-based work

Construction and contracting businesses often run project costs in spreadsheets that only tell the real story after a project closes. 

Odoo tracks materials, labor, and subcontractor costs against each project as they happen, so overruns are visible while there is still time to respond, not discovered at reconciliation. 

We configure it around how your projects actually run, not a generic project management template.

 —= FAQ =—

Yes. 

Every cost, material, labor, or subcontractor, is recorded against the specific project it belongs to, so you get real profitability per project, not just across the whole business.

Yes. 

Progress billing and milestone-based invoicing are standard configurations, matched to what has actually been completed.

Yes, this is a common configuration, agreed rates and completed work are checked against invoices automatically rather than manually each time.

Yes. 

Multi-project dashboards give a consolidated view across every active site, alongside the detail available at the individual project level.

How long does a construction implementation take?  

Depends on how many active projects, subcontractor relationships, and billing structures are involved. 

We'll give you a specific estimate after discovery.
