That Keeps Construction Costs Under Control
Create, track, and manage purchase orders for materials, plant, and subcontractors. Match supplier invoices to jobs and know exactly where every pound is going.
Everything You Need to Manage Purchase Orders
Create Purchase Orders
Create POs for materials, plant, and subcontractor work. Add line items with quantities and prices, then match the supplier invoice back to the PO when it arrives.
Quote Requests
Send a request for the same materials to up to three suppliers, compare their prices side by side, and turn the winning quote straight into a purchase order.
Purchase Invoicing
Record and manage supplier invoices. Match invoices against purchase orders and job costs so you always know where the money is going.
AI Invoice Extraction
Upload a photo or PDF of a supplier invoice and AI extracts the line items, amounts, and supplier details automatically. Review and approve in seconds.
Supplier Management
Keep all your suppliers in one place. Link purchase orders and invoices to each supplier and see your spending at a glance across every job.
PDF & Email
Generate professional purchase order documents as PDFs and send them directly to your suppliers via email. No more printing and scanning.
