DON’T BE A SCHMUCK BUILDER
The 3 rules to live by…
A “schmuck” builder ignores or is blinded to the core reason for tendering on any job. The core reason to quote or tender for a job is to generate revenue to (1) cover all the jobs costs, (2) contribute to a share of the business overheads and (3) deliver a respectable profit to the business.

Cloud Storage is it a good idea?

The term “cloud” is quickly becoming the buzz word when people talk about ways to store their digital files. While physical storage medium, such as DVD, USB sticks and powered external hard drives have been the go-to device when backing up precious information, it is becoming more and more common for people to store that information “off-site”..

Testimonials

“We needed to find a program that had comprehensive job costing & accounting features, attached to a powerful but easy to use estimating program. We tried at least 3 other of the leading program brands and found Bizprac to be by far the most user friendly, without compromising critical features or functionality. Bizprac allows us to keep track of the ongoing jobs and keep’s our job claims up to date. Bizprac has allowed us to spend much more time onsite doing the job and way less time on the computer.

Whenever we need help Bizprac support staff are friendly and easy to contact. Also when we suggest new features or changes to the program, they are reviewed and added if other customers have the same request. So the combination of Bizprac’s feature-set, ease of use, and readily available support, meant going with Bizprac was a no brainer.”

“At our previous employer, a large building company, we became familiar with the functionality of a large construction software product from Sage. So when we went to the market to look for software, our aim was to find similar functionality at a fraction of the price. We knew it was a tall order. The only product that provided the full functionality was Bizprac. Bizprac was built by builders for builders and this was evident to us when we reviewed the product. We were very impressed with the value for money that Bizprac provided and now that we have started to use it, we’re also impressed with the support and ease of use. We’re very happy with Bizprac!”

“We have been using Bizprac for more than a year now. I love it! It tells us how much money is going in and out of the business, where each job is at, the cost of each stage of each job, everything! It’s easy to use and anyone can use it! My Bizprac screen is open all day on my second screen, I don’t need to refer to paper files, everything I need is on Bizprac! I can’t think of anything that it doesn’t do!”

The Bizprac system allows us as a business to manage the building and construction side as well as maintaining an up to date record of how we are tracking financially. Having a system that works well with us allows us to deliver high-quality service to our customers and suppliers at a competitive rate. we are equally impressed with the team from Bizprac administration and help desk who are always able to assist us with any inquiries or further training to maximise our program use.”

“We reviewed about half a dozen systems before choosing Bizprac. We found other systems were over-engineered and would have made life more difficult. Bizprac has saved us an enormous amount of time from an administrative perspective, and has reduced the time it takes us to prepare a quote significantly. It allows us to track job costs against budget in real-time and manage contract variations with greater visibility, it is great to know how we are tracking at any stage.”
