When construction business owners learn about a new software, they ask these two questions:
🤔 Does it take a lot of effort for my folks to learn?
💰 When do I see actual monetary benefits to my biz?
All the things software often promise: Getting organized, building a system and looking professional - sound like distant dreams, when what really matters today is having healthy cashflow.
💵 Cash in, cash out
A smooth construction project relies on:
🏦 Timely client payments (cash in)
🏗️ Efficient work completion before paying subcontractors and suppliers (cash out)
🛒 Timely procurement and scheduling (deposit cash out)
📝 Effective change order management (prevent milestone payment delays)
🗂️ Real-time field and office sync
To facilitate the above seamlessly, the office requires most up-to-date field information. Is there a better way than calling site managers or sending project managers to sites? 🤔
Billie makes it fast to capture the following field insights in real-time, and organizes them into an issue database. There is no staff training required to form a daily habit and avoids tedious form filling that pushes away data. 🚀
