“I think that month end WIP process is a lot slicker. Now when Finance and Operations leave the room, we’re all on the same page. There’s no massive queries around finance supposed to cost the wrong job, missing data, that type of thing. Which detracts from the process. So the removal of all those queries, has been a bit of a game changer.”
“The most beneficial aspect of LiveCosts is the cost and reports for each project and the live profit margins. They’re being shown right there on the home page once you log in so it’s easy and clear to see all the real-time information with our reports being pulled up within minutes.”
