Large construction companies all over the world are starting to implement Enterprise Resource Planning Systems, known as ERPs. These systems help to effectively manage and use resources more efficiently. 

Essentially there are two parts of an ERP: data management and workflow management. Both of these are equally as important functionalities and will allow you to monitor your business. Allowing an ERP to be managed over a cloud database creates the opportunity to access data from anywhere, in real time. 

At Xsys, we specialize in cloud based solutions built to improve and scale with your construction company. 

How a Cloud-Based ERP System Can Benefit Your Construction Company

Visibility

For any business, visibility and planning are essential to proper communication and implementation. Especially when it comes to a construction company, project planning, and project management is essential in the beginning stage of any project. 

This is why a cloud-based ERP system is so helpful. Any construction company using an ERP is able to provide its employees with the capability to organize effectively and follow the plan at any time.

Accessibility 

Whether you are in the field or in an office, cloud construction software offers you access to all of your business applications at any time from any location. This provides time savings as well because you only need to put in data one time. 

With the ability to use double data entry, it opens new opportunities to save time and money. Process your data once and have it sent to the cloud for immediate review. 

Supply Chain Management 

Your supply chain is part of the battery that makes your construction company clock tick. Managing data from throughout the supply chain is very important. With cloud based ERP you can even set your automatic reorder for items at a low level in your warehouse. 

Xsys Cloud ERP solutions provide you with a modern solution to manage your supply chain without even making a call. 

Inventory Management 

With a good cloud construction software, you will always be provided with the opportunity to use a construction-specific app to monitor your inventory and accounting. For example, Acumatica offers the Acumatica Construction Edition with Project Accounting. 

Cloud ERPs supply remote access for all of your data, inventory, and any other aspect of your business. Take advantage of easy sourcing, knowing exactly what your purchase orders should hold, simple planning, storing, and monitoring of raw materials, all in one location.
