Powerful Reporting and Forecasting Tools from Access COINS
iQ Construct specialises in fit-out and refurbishment across commercial, hospitality and leisure, retail, and tertiary education.
Access COINS has been on board as a construction Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) provider since iQ Construct's inception, providing an end-to-end construction software system that has been integral in facilitating key business decisions at all levels.
iQ Construct Managing Director Ian Morrison explains how Access COINS was the standout choice as it offered a whole of business system, not just accounting and finance.
“COINS allows full input of all the variables of the construction process in a live scenario. We don’t have spreadsheets to the side or reporting to the side, and ultimately it gave me the opportunity to do full business reporting as well.”
“One of the strongest functions Access COINS provides us at the project level, which is a defining factor, is the CRV – Cost, Reconciliation and Valuation - process. It’s our monthly cut off where all projects report into the management of the company about project performance and its tied completely to the administration of invoices and the head contract accounts,” he said.
I’ve had to make big decisions on up scaling and in one instance, downscaling, dependent on market factors and because the system is so robust and the Business Planning and Forecasting function was there, it allowed me within one hour to assess those variables and effectively scenario plan and I could make the decision.
Ian Morrison, Managing Director, iQ Construct
“I would recommend any construction company to seriously consider Access COINS technology. It’s a construction specific software and it’s scalable for any business and it provides a certainty of accounting that’s easy to understand,” Mr Morrison said.
