Features
Six modules. One set of jobs, cost codes and crews.
The bid becomes the budget. The foreman's report becomes job cost and the pay estimate. Closed jobs become the next bid's production history. Each module hands its numbers to the next, so nothing gets typed twice.
Owner Command Center
Five numbers for the whole company, then the jobs that need you this week.

Foreman field app
A two-minute daily report on the foreman's phone: hours, quantities, photos and the toolbox talk.

Job cost, WIP and fade
Earned hours, productivity factor and projected margin per job, updated every week.

Pay estimates and retention
Monthly pay estimates built from approved field quantities, with retention tracked to release.

Command Center
Know which job is bleeding before your coffee is cold.
Backlog, projected profit, productivity, over/under billing and cash tied up in retention, on one screen. Under them, a short list of plain-English warnings ranked by dollars, each with the button that fixes it.
More about this moduleBid engine
Bid from what your crews actually did, and what the low bidder actually charged.
Public work goes to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. WorksPro puts your real hours per unit from closed jobs and the winning range from public bid tabs next to every item you price, so you stop guessing on the five items that decide the bid.

Sample data
Field app
The daily report your foreman will actually fill out.
Hours by person and cost code on a tap grid, quantities installed per bid item, equipment, weather, photos and the toolbox talk. Then sign and send. The target is under two minutes for a crew of four, and it keeps working with no signal.
More about this moduleJob cost and WIP
See the fade at week six, not at closeout.
WorksPro compares what each job has earned with what it has spent, by cost code and cost type, every week. When a job starts to slide, the projected margin moves and you find out while there is still time to fix it.

Pay estimates
Stop retyping quantities into the pay estimate.
Agencies pay by the quantity installed per bid item. WorksPro already has those quantities from approved daily reports, so the monthly estimate starts filled in, through the 20th, with retention and previous payments worked out.

Compliance
Certified payroll without the month-end scramble.
WorksPro keeps the wage determination with each job, the classification on every timecard, and the apprentice ratio on a gauge. When it is time to report, you export certified payroll from the same timecards the foreman already sent. You file it. WorksPro does not file for you.
