About this industry

Built for the way contractors actually run jobs.

From bid to closeout, Acumatica Construction Edition is the connected platform that ties together project management, job costing, field operations, compliance, and the financial back office. Summit Business has spent over a decade implementing it for general contractors, specialty trades, home builders, and property managers, and we tailor every deployment to the way your crews actually work.

Specialties we serve

Every trade, every contract type.

General Contractors

End-to-end project lifecycle from bid to closeout, job costing, change orders, AIA billing, and progressive forecasts in one system.

Carpentry & Flooring

Track materials, labor, and equipment across warehouses and trucks. Real-time profitability per project, not at month-end.

Concrete, Foundation & Paving

Daily field reporting, unit-based tracking, and centralized data so timing and quality stay tight.

MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing)

Service and project work in one platform. Dispatch, mobile field forms, and compliance tracking for licensed trades.

Roofing, Siding & Sheet Metal

Crew scheduling, materials reconciliation, and warranty tracking purpose-built for envelope contractors.

Home Builders

Lot-cost accounting, options & upgrades, customer portals, and tight integration with sales and warranty programs.

Modular Construction

Hybrid project + manufacturing accounting that bridges the factory floor and the job site.

Property Management

Maintenance, service requests, tenant billing, and asset profitability, all on the same ledger as your construction work.

Common challenges

Where the old way breaks down.

These are the friction points we hear most often before Summit gets called in. Sound familiar?

01

Profitability surprises at month-end

Job costs trickle in too late to react. By the time AP catches up, the project is already underwater.

02

Disconnected field and office

Spreadsheets, emails, and three different apps. Crews and PMs work from different versions of the truth.

03

Compliance documentation chaos

Insurance certs, OSHA records, lien waivers, and certified payroll scattered across folders and inboxes.

04

Bid-to-closeout black holes

Estimates don't flow into budgets. Budgets don't flow into billing. Closeout takes weeks instead of days.

How Acumatica helps

The capabilities that move the needle.

Native, configurable, and connected. No bolt-on chaos required.

Real-time job cost & WIP

Field labor and materials post directly to projects. WIP and forecast update on every transaction.

Change order & RFI management

Capture, route, and price change orders without losing the trail. RFIs flow to drawings and submittals.

AIA-style progress billing

Generate G702/G703 applications for payment in minutes. Schedule of values stays in sync with the budget.

Mobile field capture

Native mobile time, equipment, and daily reports for crews. Offline-first when service drops.

Subcontractor & compliance hub

COIs, lien waivers, certified payroll, and bonding tracked centrally. Automatic alerts before expirations.

Connected ecosystem

Tight integrations with JobPlanner, Corfix, Asite, ADP, Stack, Velixo, and Acumatica's open API.
