The billing logic is the hard part
Construction tracking is not a kanban board. It is progress billing, retainage math, change orders, and draws that must reconcile to the penny across periods. Generic project tools do not model it, which is why the spreadsheet survives.
What your tracker would include
- Jobs by phase with the billing status visible at a glance
- AIA-style progress billing that carries balances correctly every period
- Change orders with approval trails that hold up in a dispute
- Retainage tracked automatically, released on your rules
- Owner and PM views so the Monday meeting runs from live data
Built from a real contractor system
I built exactly this for a commercial contractor: operations from bid to final payment, including the progress-billing math their office used to dread monthly. The pattern is proven; yours gets shaped to your jobs.
The offer, in one paragraph
I work as the AI systems builder on your team: $4,000 a month, published price, no contract. Your first working software lands inside 14 days of an approved plain-English plan, and month one is refundable if you are not happy. You own the code, the data, and the accounts from day one. The full offer, guarantees included, is at offer.busqueneil.com, and the pricing logic is unpacked in what custom software costs in 2026.
Common questions
Can it produce AIA-style pay applications?
Yes, with continuation math that rebills correctly every period, which is precisely where spreadsheets and generic tools break. The math gets tested against your real past applications before you rely on it.
Does it replace Procore?
For a 10 to 50 person GC, it often replaces the spreadsheet next to Procore rather than Procore itself. On the call we map what you actually use and build only the missing piece.
