Does This Sound Familiar?
Every one of these is a solvable process and technology problem — not a “we need more staff” problem. These are the challenges our construction & real estate clients face before working with us:
Project Costs Are Tracked in Spreadsheets — You Know About Overruns When It's Too Late
Material costs, labor charges, subcontractor bills, equipment rentals — each tracked in a different Excel file maintained by a different person. The project manager 'roughly knows' where the budget stands. But actual cost vs budget reconciliation happens once a month — and by then, the overrun on concrete has been accumulating for 3 weeks. You discover the problem when you can't fix it.
Vendor Payments Are Delayed Because Approvals Take Forever — And Then Vendors Stop Work
A subcontractor completes a milestone and submits an invoice. It goes to the site engineer for verification → project manager for approval → finance for processing. Each step takes 3-5 days because the invoice sits in someone's email inbox. After 2 weeks, the subcontractor calls: 'Payment hasn't come, my workers aren't reporting tomorrow.' Work stops. Deadlines slip. All because an approval workflow runs on email and memory.
Your Sales Pipeline and Construction Progress Live in Completely Different Worlds
The sales team has booked 40 units in Tower C. The CRM shows them as 'sold.' But the construction team's project plan shows Tower C foundation work is 2 months behind schedule. Nobody told the sales team. Now you're selling units with a possession date that's impossible to meet — and every buyer will demand penalty compensation when you miss it.
RERA Compliance Reporting Is a Quarterly Panic — Not a Routine
Every quarter, someone spends a week pulling data from 5 different sources to compile the RERA filing — project progress, escrow account statements, buyer details, agreement registrations. It's always a scramble. One missed deadline and you're facing penalties and reputational damage with the regulatory authority.
We implement ERP systems configured for construction and real estate — where every material purchase, labor payment, and subcontractor bill is tracked against its budget line in real time. Vendor payments are automated through configurable approval workflows. The sales CRM and construction project plan are connected — so sales knows what's buildable and construction knows what's sold. And RERA reports are generated in hours, not weeks.
What We Deliver for Construction & Real Estate
Detailed breakdown of what you get, how we do it, and what the result looks like.
Project Budgeting & Real-Time Cost Control
Every expense tracked against its budget line the moment it's incurred — not at month-end reconciliation
We configure your ERP with a project-based chart of accounts and cost breakdown structure (CBS). Every purchase order, material receipt, labor attendance record, and subcontractor bill is coded to a project, a phase, a building, a floor, and a cost category — giving you drill-down visibility from 'Project X is 12% over budget' to 'Concrete for Tower B, Floor 7 is the specific overrun.'
What You Get
Real Scenario
A construction company had 4 ongoing projects with combined budgets of ₹120 Cr. Costs were tracked in project-wise Excel files — consolidation took 10 days after month-end. We implemented ERPNext with project-wise cost tracking. Every PO and bill is tagged to the specific project-phase-cost category at entry. The CFO now sees real-time budget vs actual for all 4 projects on a single dashboard. A 7% concrete cost overrun on one project was identified in week 2 — not month 3 — saving an estimated ₹18 Lakhs.
Automated Vendor & Subcontractor Payment Management
Milestone-based payment schedules with automated approval routing — vendors paid on time, work never stops
We build vendor payment automation where each contract defines milestones, payment terms, and retention percentages. When a milestone is marked complete by the site engineer (with photo evidence), the payment request auto-routes through the configured approval chain — site head → project manager → finance. Each approver gets a mobile notification. No email chasing. No 'I didn't see it' delays.
What You Get
Real Scenario
A real estate developer had 40+ active subcontractors across 3 projects. Payment delays were causing work stoppages on critical path activities. We implemented automated milestone-based payment workflows. The site engineer marks a milestone complete in the ERP (with photos). The project manager gets a mobile notification and approves in 2 taps. Finance processes payment within 48 hours. Payment delays dropped 80%. Zero work stoppages due to payment issues in the 6 months post-implementation.
Integrated CRM for Real Estate Sales
From lead capture to booking to registration to possession — one system, end-to-end visibility
We build or configure CRM modules specifically for real estate sales — unit inventory management, lead tracking, site visits, booking, agreement generation, payment plan tracking, registration, and handover. Integrated with the construction project plan so sales always knows the realistic possession timeline.
What You Get
Real Scenario
A developer with a 200-unit residential project was managing sales in an Excel sheet — unit availability, payment collections, and customer communications were all manual. We implemented an integrated CRM + ERP where every booking auto-updates unit availability, auto-generates the payment schedule, and auto-sends demand letters and receipts. The sales director now opens a dashboard showing real-time: units booked, payments collected, pending collections, and channel partner commissions. Excel-based sales tracking: eliminated.
RERA-Compliant Reporting & Documentation
Quarterly RERA filings generated in hours, not weeks — always audit-ready
We configure your ERP to maintain all data required for RERA compliance — project registration details, escrow account transactions, buyer agreements, construction progress, and financial statements. Quarterly and annual RERA reports are generated from live ERP data — no manual compilation, no data reconciliation across systems.
What You Get
Real Scenario
A developer was spending 2 weeks every quarter manually compiling RERA QPR data from 4 different sources — finance system, sales Excel, project manager's progress report, and the CA's escrow statement. We configured their ERP to maintain all RERA data as part of normal operations. The quarterly RERA report is now generated in 4 hours — pulling live data from a single system. No manual compilation. No reconciliation. Audit-ready at all times.
