Construction gets treated as an afterthought - a few job costing fields bolted onto an accounting system and called &ldquo;construction-ready.&rdquo; If you run a construction company in Calgary, you already know that does not cut it. Your business runs on project-based accounting, and the software needs to reflect that.</p> <p>A good construction ERP ties estimating, job costing, purchasing, subcontractor management, and billing into one system so everyone works from the same numbers.
