Construction

Construction ERP for builders: purchase, stores and contractor bills

LoftRay Construction takes material from indent to purchase order, goods receipt and a matched bill, and contractor work from work order to measurement and RA bill. Site stores, daily progress reports and quality checks are in the same place. When a milestone is certified, buyers’ demands follow in Collections.

How it works

How Construction works, step by step

  1. Site raises an indent

    The site asks for material against the project.

  2. Quotes are compared

    An RFQ goes to suppliers and their quotes are compared side by side, or a rate contract is used.

  3. The order is approved

    The purchase order goes through your approval chain.

  4. Material arrives

    The store records a goods receipt, and the balance updates.

  5. The bill is matched and paid

    The supplier’s bill is matched to the order and receipt, then paid with TDS applied.

Questions

Questions about Construction

Can contractor RA bills hold back retention?

Yes. RA bills are built from measurements against the work order, with advances recovered and retention held back and released later.

Can we run more than one store per project?

Yes. Each store has its own balance, and material moves between stores with transfers. Counts, write-offs and valuation are recorded too.
