Cardamel Consulting, SBS Group and SIS Software LLC, Microsoft Gold Certified Partners, have created a partnership to provide General and Specialty Construction Contractors and other project-driven companies a turn-key solution to their construction accounting software needs. Through this partnership, the companies are introducing SmartMove, a preconfigured, best-in-class, integrated project accounting solution based on Microsoft Dynamics SL and designed to be up and running in weeks. SmartMove minimizes margin fade, streamlines key business processes, reduces costs and centralizes all project documentation with a full library of construction business reporting. According to Microsoft Partners, contractors can implement SmartMove at almost half the price of other best-in-class software implementations.
Historically, construction companies have worked with multiple software solutions to run their businesses. Disparate software solutions create a situation where information may not be timely or accurate. Working in close partnership with Microsoft, the Partners leverged their experience working with other construction companies to create a pre-configured and integrated software solution based on Microsoft Dynamics SL to include industry best practices and streamline all the key construction operational and financial processes. The SmartMove solution was recently showcased at the 2009 Construction Financial Management Association (CFMA) show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
“Contractors tell us margins are being squeezed from clients demanding better pricing as well as increased competition. Our customers are looking for software that helps their employees do their jobs and track all the critical construction documents, resources and job costs. Additionally, they seek a system that is easy to use and doesn't require months of training. We looked at all of those issues and solved them with Construction SmartMove," says Steve Mulka, a Partner at SIS Software.
“Construction SmartMove not only addresses the needs of contractors, but also demonstrates a smarter way of implementing critical financial and operational software. Clients can leverage the benefits of a preconfigured solution that is based on “Best-in-Class”
As part of the national launch of Construction SmartMove, the partnership will be hosting a series of online webinars, trade shows and demos. The first free informational webinar will be hosted on June 18. To register for this webinar, you can visit www.constructionsmartmove.com which contains all the details.
“Construction SmartMove not only represents the best thinking and lessons learned from past implementations but also demonstrates the value of collaboration and partnership. The SmartMove partnership leverages the deep domain knowledge across all of our customers and companies providing a tremendous benefit to customers who are looking to streamline their operations with a new project accounting solution,” states Jim Bowman, President/CEO of SBS Group. The companies have to date received enthusiastic responses. Adds Bowman, “In a tough environment, we’ve got several dozen contractors looking at SmartMove today. We think that speaks well to its market potential.
