Home VortexERP Enterprise Construction & Contracting

Know what a project really cost — while it is still running

Contracting money is lost on site, not in the office: materials that walk, variations nobody billed, subcontractors paid twice. VortexERP Enterprise carries every project as its own cost centre, with site stores, controlled procurement and a ledger that tells you where you stand this month.

On site

Materials, buying and cost, under control

Cost centre per project

Every project carries its own costs — materials, labour, plant and subcontract — so profitability is visible during the job, not after it.

Site stores and material issue

Each site keeps its own stores ledger. Materials are issued against the project that consumed them, so shrinkage shows up as a number.

Procurement with approvals

Requisition to purchase order to goods receipt to three-way-matched invoice — buying controlled at site level without losing head-office oversight.

Subcontractor and supplier accounts

Subcontractors and suppliers on proper accounts, with certificates and payments recorded so nobody is paid twice for the same work.

Plant and asset register

Excavators, mixers, vehicles and tools tracked with custody, movement between sites, depreciation and disposal.

Board-grade project reporting

Cost against budget by project and by cost head, in reports a director or a lender will accept.

Behind the projects

One set of books across every site

Sites are scattered; the accounts should not be.

One general ledger

Every site and project rolls into a single ledger with cost centres and dimensions — month-end stops being an archaeology exercise.

KRA eTIMS and statutory

TIMS/eTIMS invoicing, iTax-ready exports and Kenyan statutory handling built in.

Multi-site and multi-company

Several companies, joint ventures and sites on one platform, consolidated where you need it.

AI briefings and early warnings

Cost overrun and margin slippage surfaced while the project can still be steered.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Do you handle BOQs and valuations?

The system handles project cost centres, site stores, procurement, subcontractor accounts and cost-against-budget reporting. Bills of quantities and valuation practice differ widely between contractors — talk to our team about your process and we will be honest about what fits out of the box and what needs configuration.

Can each site run its own store?

Yes. Every site can hold its own stores ledger with issues booked against the project, while head office sees the whole picture.

Can we run several companies or joint ventures?

Yes. Multi-company is standard, with consolidation and inter-company movements handled properly.
