Fictional financial records and illustrative figures. Edits never change a customer account, issue an invoice or process a payment. Linked purchase orders and bills are not counted twice as commitments.

Every financial detail.
The same job record.

Budgets

Keep phase and product-item budgets with the project, alongside starting costs and contingency.

Contingency

Contingency starts on product items, follows into proposals and can support discounts. The remaining buffer carries into the job to help cover overruns and protect planned profit.

Purchase orders

Keep vendor orders, their costs and status with the job so committed purchases stay visible.

Bills

Manage bills entered against the project, their related purchase orders and the amounts paid or still remaining.

Invoices

Track customer invoices, project phases, statuses and outstanding balances in the same financial record.

Change orders

Keep scope changes and their financial impact with the project rather than separated from the original job.

BidBuild is one of the few systems built around a connected contingency workflow. Bring the project’s financial records together and see how decisions affect the buffer protecting your planned profit.
