Projects and Estimations

Seamless Project Management from Estimation to Completion

The EJM Projects Module supports you throughout the entire project lifecycle—from initial estimation to final accounts. With an integrated data model, it ensures a seamless experience, connecting every stage of your project, from concept to completion.Built by construction professionals, our software helps you manage projects, people, cash flow, and equipment with ease.

Easily import Bills of Quantities (BOQs) and tag resources to determine allowables. Once a supplier’s rate is selected, estimates can be analyzed and marked up, allowing for direct tender generation—making the estimation process effortless.

Estimation & Resource Management

Resource Libraries

The module allows you to create or import a Resource Library structured into three levels:

  • Primary Level (1-9): Reflects major cost groups such as Plant, Labour, and Materials.
  • Subdivision Level (A-Z): Further categorises resources, such as skilled vs. unskilled labour or different material types.
  • Detailed Level: Additional breakdowns for greater precision if required.
MasterBill & BOQ Importing
  • MasterBills define recurring items used for rapid pricing, such as sand and cement or bricklayers and bricks.

‍

  • Bills of Quantities can be imported from WINQS, Bill, or Excel, ensuring compatibility with various formats.

‍

  • Pricing can be conducted at any level of detail, providing full flexibility.
Tenders & Analysis
  • Tenders can be analysed across multiple dimensions, such as cost centers, Pareto analysis, or by resource type.

‍

  • Custom reports can be defined and exported as Excel or PDF files—ready for emailing or WhatsApp sharing.

Scheduling & Planning

Project Scheduling
  • A Gantt Chart tool, similar to MS Project, enables sequencing of events, specifying durations, and setting deadlines.

‍

  • BOQs can be linked to the schedule to generate cash flow and resource demand reports over time.

‍

  • Multiple bill items can be linked to a single activity for precise tracking.
Cash Flow & Resource Planning
  • Generates lifetime cash flow projection diagrams, factoring in cost prices, retention, and selling prices.

‍

  • Estimates and schedules are fully linked, providing resource requirement forecasting over specified intervals.

Progress Tracking & Certificates

Flexible data-entry

Track and manage project progress with flexible data entry options:

  • Cumulative units, with the system automatically calculating monthly progress.
  • Monthly units, with cumulative progress tracked in real time.
  • Cumulative percentage completion, ensuring accurate project valuations.
  • Worksheet entry, allowing for custom arithmetic functions and adjustments.
Progress certification & valuation

Ensure accurate valuations and structured payments with built-in certification tools:

  • Progress certificates are automatically generated based on tracked work.
  • Materials on Site tracking ensures valuations include stored resources.
  • Escalation adjustments account for contract variations and price changes.
  • Variable retention calculations ensure deductions align with contract terms.
  • Pro-forma invoicing support streamlines interim payment approvals.
