Challenge

For Eastern Interior Construction LLC (EIC), finding a construction software solution that could collect and store daily time reports, along with estimating tools that enabled streamlined exporting of budgets and proposals, was necessary to eliminate errors in job reporting and to reduce duplicitous data entry.



Solution

The commercial drywall contractor selected Sage 100 Contractor for project management and time entry, as well as eTakeoff, an electronic quantity takeoff product distributed by Sage. As its technology partner, United Solutions Group worked with the team of 30 employees at EIC to introduce the new time reporting and estimating applications and ensure the migration off of QuickBooks was as seamless as possible.



Results

Sage 100 Contractor enables EIC to easily export proposals, budgets and change orders, eliminating the need for multiple instances of data entry. And with technical support from USI just a mouse click or phone call away, EIC’s team has been able to remedy questions or other technical issues with ease both during and after the deployment phase.

The Full Story

Using multiple systems, Stellos Electric needed to find the right construction software solution to do the whole job

Stellos Electric owner, Jim Stellos, was frustrated with not being able to get the answers he needed from their existing software. They used multiple systems to accomplish their needs, gathering information from their accounting software, spreadsheets, and verbal information from field managers. They knew that all of these systems together did not produce accurate numbers. Jim Stellos set two goals for his office when they started their search for a new accounting software package, the cost had to be low and the daily routine of the office could not be disturbed during the implementation of the software.

Sage 100 Contractor does it all and more for Stellos Electric

After reviewing several software packages, the Stellos office staff saw the demonstration of Sage 100 Contractor and they immediately knew it was right for their company. The cost was within their budget and the software implementation went smoothly. During the implementation, Jim Stellos called his office for costs on a job, and the staff was able to get him the information he requested in minutes! Jim was so surprised because he wasn’t used to getting accurate information so quickly. Allyson Stellos, the Accounting/HR Manager, said that the return on their investment has been great. They have been able to become more efficient, cutting time in the accounting department by half. With these cost savings, they have been able to put additional money into their marketing and service departments. The software has helped with communication between the accounting department, the estimators and supervisors. At any point in time, Stellos’ staff knows the budget vs. actual costs on every job. With strong financial reporting, over and under billing, and ease of reporting, Jim Stellos is one-hundred percent satisfied with his new software!

The Full Story

An extensive review of construction software leads The Remodeling Company to United Solutions and Sage 100 Contractor Software

When it comes to accounting software, The Remodeling Company has run the gamut. In 1998, Gary Moffie founded The Remodeling Company, a construction business that specializes in higher-end whole-house remodels. “As we started to grow, QuickBooks was not able to keep up with our needs.” Separate spreadsheets were needed to track job costs and other detail, making the process unwieldy, and his team would end up entering the same data two or three times. When the company had grown to twice its original size, Moffie knew he needed to get everything into one system. He shopped around and found a software company in California that he liked and ordered the software, only to discover that the product did not match what was described in the course overview. Moffie resumed his search and soon purchased what he thought was another promising product. While the system proved easy to use, it too lacked the detail that his company needed.

United Solutions and Sage 100 Contractor Software provide the solution

Then, Moffie received a call from United Solutions. “During the demo, I saw that Sage 100 Contractor could give us the detail we couldn’t get with the other software,” Moffie says. “I bought the product on the spot.” In one especially helpful transition, Moffie moved his job summary reports from spreadsheets to the software. He uses software reports to guide weekly production meetings with his project supervisors. “As a former marketing and sales guy, I’m obsessed with numbers,” Moffie says. “The journal gives me the numbers I need down to the finest detail.”

United Solutions Professional Services provides customization

As his business has grown, Moffie has found an occasional need to customize a report. When that happens, he taps the expertise of United Solutions whose expert consultants have helped create customized change order reports, cash flow reports by job and reports for hours worked by day and by job. United Solutions also designed a report for The Remodeling Company’s 401K and profit sharing plan that is used to make deposits each month. “Whenever I need a special report, United Solutions is very quick to deliver.” “When I go to events, other contractors ask me about how I run my business,” Moffie says. “I’m a very enthusiastic supporter of Sage 100 Contractor. I’ve had experience with lots of different software and nothing compares.”
