Construction Management

From the start of the construction process until the final retainage payment is received, Maxwell Systems StreetSmarts provides information on a daily basis that other software applications provide only weekly or monthly.

Construction Management helps mitigate this risk by not only forecasting costs at completion but also probing into unit costs and productivity measurements such as crew, labor, and equipment.

Whether the work is unit price, fixed bid, cost plus, DOT, municipality or private, StreetSmarts gives contractors the tools to manage projects the way they bid and work. Construction Management is tightly integrated with other StreetSmarts components, providing one-step data entry that results in immediate cost, revenue, and productivity information for projects.

Construction Management streamlines business processes for any job regardless of size, location, or complexity

• Project Management

  Managers, foremen, and superintendents can access the information they need to manage their jobs in one central location. This includes tracking the financial standing of projects, the responsibilities of team members, relevant documents, and the ongoing activities of your most complex projects.

• Job Cost

  Job Cost integrates closely with other Construction Management components to provide clear and timely information for contractors and project managers. It monitors all job progress detail with accurate records and audit trails.

• Subcontract Management

  Subcontract Management identifies tasks containing subcontractor items and calculates open payable invoices for each subcontractor. Subcontract Management also generates subcontract documents; identifies subcontractor performance; and manages subcontractor insurance certificates, bonds, and documents to reduce exposure to potential project conflicts.

• Contract Management

  Contract Management provides automated invoicing for projects stored in Job Cost, including control over change orders or project extras to ensure they are properly billed.
