Construction companies are really accounting companies that just happen to build buildings and infrastructure. Your company’s contract accounting system should provide project performance and be used as a management tool to support sound business decisions. Successful job cost accounting can mean the difference between a profitable business and one that struggles to stay alive.

In this webinar we will discuss the work-in-progress construction schedule (or WIP report). The WIP report essentially shows contractors whether active jobs are overbilled or underbilled. The goal is typically for project cash to come from your customer, through overbillings (or, billings in-excess of costs). However, under-billings (or, costs in-excess of billings) can indicate that you’re financing your own projects, and can negatively impact the final profit.
