Why is residential construction management software necessary?

Modern methods of construction, rising material costs and other economic issues have been putting a lot of pressure on the private housebuilding sector recently.

With the increasing pressure and demand for more homes to be built within a short timeframe there is a call for better productivity and efficiency in the housebuilding sector. Managing large construction sites and ensuring communication goes smoothly between site workers and the office can be challenging. Materials for specific plots may be ordered at the wrong time, and expired subcontractors insurances may cause site delays. Mistakes often go unnoticed and delays in spotting the early signs of issues may mean the difference between profit and loss.

How can 4PS housebuilding software give you better visibility and control?

Based on the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Platform, 4PS Construct housebuilding ERP supports all your core processes from house sales and buyer leads, standard house types, models with related buyer options, finance, commercial processes, resource planning, plant, material procurement, subcontractor management, aftercare and more, all available on mobile-enabled technology.

With each new release you automatically benefit from the latest technology and industry best practice. Thanks to many years of construction industry experience, 4PS has developed standard functionality to meet specific sector requirements. Take advantage of the single integrated solution ‘4PS Construct’ for all of your company processes.

Award-winning buyer and aftercare management

HOOMCTRL (Home Buyer Portal) is a collaboration platform for home buyers and housebuilders. It streamlines the house-buying process for buyers and housebuilders on your branded platform, from registering interest in a new development and empty plot, through to selecting buyer options such as specification of flooring, kitchen appliances and electrical options, including the relevant additional costs to acceptance and digital sign-off.  The buyer options then update the build programme and materials for assisting the site manager.

Buyers can then use the portal for aftercare and snagging, which fully integrates with 4PS CRM and your website for improved buyer and sales agent communication and reducing duplication of work for marketing.

Customer Story Altrad
“In 2011, we made the transition to 4PS Construct and made our first steps in the field of data and digitization. We realized the “paper process” could be organized in a smarter and more efficient way, both for our customers and our own internal process. The starting point is that the activities are carried out correctly from the start and that standardization and transparency in the process are strived for. Also across chain partners, in order to prevent waste as much as possible."
Ron Frazer Managing Director | Volker Wessels Construction Plant
“At BAM, we agreed that we would process existing projects just like we had done in the past. New projects now run via 4PS Construct. This was a conscious decision because of the international environment we are operating in. We are taking it step by step. In consultation with 4PS, a number of adjustments were made in the standard software. A prerequisite for our business and an enhancement of their standard product for 4PS.”
James van de Merbel CIO | BAM International
"It’s interesting that the reliable day to day running of the system with no down time has raised staff morale. Due to this, the workforce want to engage with the system more and more and are pushing the business to take more advantage of Dynamics NAV/4PS. They’ve had their eyes opened to the limitations of the old system so improvements and refinements are continually being made driven, quite often, by the users."
Andrew Stanley Company Accountant | Shouksmiths
"We know we’ve got more control over the business and the day to day running. Reporting is much improved by using Jet and the standard CVR Report. Processing sub-contractor payments is so much easier as are so many daily tasks so we are definitely more efficient."
Paul Armstrong Financial Director | Thomas Armstrong
"Compared with earlier systems, 4PS is distinguished by being fully adapted for our operations. We have also put a lot of focus on configuring the key areas to suit us even better. We began with service and will continue by fine tuning project management."
Stephan Winkler System Owner | Strukton Rail
"It just seems to most operational users that there’s a lot less work involved in doing their jobs since 4PS was implemented. Things get done much faster."
Paul Lloyd Head of Digital | Altrad
