Still Rebuilding WIP Schedules in Spreadsheets? Your Project Data is Already Outdated.

 Watch the on-demand webinar to see how commercial contractors are creating automated, real-time Work in Progress (WIP) reporting directly from QuickBooks Online with ProNovos.

If You're WIP Schedule Lives in a Spreadsheet, You're Already Behind

Construction leaders make critical decisions every day based on project performance, cash flow, and profitability. But if your team is still exporting data from QuickBooks Online and rebuilding WIP schedules in spreadsheets every month, you're often looking at information that's already weeks old.

That delay creates blind spots. It can make it harder to spot margin erosion, explain project performance to sureties and lenders, and respond quickly when costs start moving in the wrong direction.

In this on-demand webinar, James Moore Construction Practice Leader Webb Shephard and ProNovos CEO Bruce Orr discuss how contractors are closing the reporting gap between accounting data and project decision-making. You'll also see a live demonstration of automated WIP reporting built on top of QuickBooks Online.
