03 — Vendor Intelligence

Vendor Tracking

Spend and purchase history for every vendor, built from approved invoices only. See who you buy the most from, how that spend is trending, and which supplier has the best price right now on every item you buy from more than one.

  • Vendor aliases are matched automatically, so one supplier billing under two names still reads as one history.
  • Auto-tagging defaults per vendor fill in the cost code and unit cost on new invoices, so there is less to type at review.

The Full Platform

Thirteen connected systems. One source of truth.

Invoice processing, cash flow, vendor tracking, CostMetrx, active job spend, field logs, budgets, actual breakdowns, inventory, equipment, cost per unit of work, and timesheets close the gap between what happens in the field, what the office approves, and what the books show.

General contractors & owners

See spend, margin, and exposure across every active job on one screen, with price-spike alerts before they reach your next order.

Project managers

Run the job by the numbers: budget and actual by cost code, updated the moment invoices land, with daily field logs and live job spend on the same screen.

Finance & back office

Close faster with every dollar coded: invoices auto-matched to jobs and cost codes, with a complete, exportable audit trail.
