MegaObras: construction management with cost control per project
A construction management platform that gave a building company control over projects, budgets, workers and subcontractors — all in one system.
Sector: Construction and building
The challenge: job costs scattered across spreadsheets
A construction company running several projects at once had no visibility over its real costs. Scattered spreadsheets, paper timesheets and untracked subcontractor invoices — managers only found out a project was over budget when it was already too late.
Workforce management was just as hard: overtime, travel and allowances recorded by hand, with frequent payment errors. The company needed a tool that brought together all the financial and operational information of its projects.
The solution: construction management with costs, hours and subcontractors
We developed a construction management platform with detailed financial control and integrated workforce management.
Project analytics dashboard. Interactive charts across all projects — accumulated costs, budgets, the status of each project and financial metrics updated in real time.
Financial management per project. Detailed costs per project — categorised expenses, with and without VAT, refunds and revenue, all organised and traceable.
Workers and hours. Hours worked, overtime, allowances and mileage per worker, with automatic calculations from the hourly rates set.
Subcontractor control. Subcontractors and their costs per project — invoices, payments and cost analysis by supplier.
Accounting integration. Sync with Sage 50c for automatic import of financial data and articles.
Results: the real cost of every job, always in view
Every project's costs in view. Real-time visibility of each project's costs, to decide before the budget is exceeded.
Payments calculated automatically. Automatic calculation of hours, overtime and allowances eliminated discrepancies in workers' pay.
Quick decisions. The dashboards let managers assess the financial health of any project in seconds.
