Midtherm Engineering Limited (Midtherm) are a midlands-based company with over 30 years’ experience in designing and installing flue systems nationwide. The company has grown significantly over the years and were in need of updating their current construction accounting processes.
Midtherm had been using Exchequer to deal with job costing and CIS, however the team found that the system did not deal with all aspects of their growing business and was proving not to be cost effective. The team at Midtherm wanted one system to deal with all aspects of their contract management and one that links everything together. Specifically, to deal with applications for payment and to digitise employee timesheets.
Construction Manager is job costing software for Sage 50 and Xero, which offers Midtherm one place to deal with all of their processes. The team also chose to take the Quotes module that works within Construction Manager to help them create, send and track pipeline for quoted and upcoming jobs. Once a job has been accepted a contract can be created from the quote in a few simple clicks, meaning Midtherm no longer have to duplicate information they have already created.
Within the software, as well as dealing with invoicing and posting these to Sage 50, Construction Manager also enables the team to raise applications for payment without raising a VAT invoice. The system will show them what has been applied for, paid and outstanding for each contract they run. Retentions are also tracked and displayed with outstanding payments flagged in a similar way.
Our products are all cloud based and accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. This has given Midtherm the ability for their employees to submit timesheets online, which will come through to the designated person for approval. This has saved them a lot of time manually inputting timesheets on a weekly basis.
