Know which jobs actually made money
If you can't tell which jobs made money, that's a bookkeeping problem, not a bidding problem. Construction books are harder than most because revenue and costs arrive on different schedules, materials get bought for one job and used on another, and retainage sits unpaid for months.
We set up job costing in QuickBooks so labor, materials and subcontractor costs are assigned to the right job as they happen. Progress billing and retainage are tracked properly, so your receivables are real. And subcontractor W-9s and payments are tracked all year, so 1099s in January are routine instead of a crisis.
Builders, remodelers, trades and landscapers across Frisco, Prosper, Celina and the rest of North Texas deal with the same issues, and we handle them the same way: reconciled every month, with a clear picture of profit by job.
