Reporting for your part of construction

Choose the questions and measures that matter to your business. These examples show different reporting needs within the industry; the available analysis depends on the records you supply.

Contractors

Explore project revenue, costs and budget movements. Compare jobs, work packages and periods using the cost and progress records you provide.

Developers and project teams

Review spending, commitments and milestone information together. Investigate differences between the latest position and the budget or plan you supply.

Building-materials suppliers

Review contractor accounts, product mix and sales across branches or territories. Compare customer demand with the categories represented in your sales data.

How it works

Three steps, in this order.

Bring a sample

Project or customer IDs, dates, revenue, costs, budgets and relevant product, branch or work-package fields.

Shape your views

Start with standard dashboards. Agree on the measures, reporting periods and business structure your customized views need.

Explore questions and reports

Work with an AI analyst to investigate the available data and prepare reports. Review the definitions and results in the context of your business.
