Prior to selecting Construct for Sage 50 from Eque2, Dulley relied on running numerous spreadsheets to maintain their business operations, experiencing a number of issues by doing so.
Ian Dulley, Account Manager at Dulley comments, “We used to be all Excel based, and were inputting data two or three times into different spreadsheets. All our invoices were manually inputted into a job costing spreadsheet. It was very hard to track committed costs, and it was a very manual process, we needed to make sure the information was 100% correct”.
Duplication and the need to enter data several times over is a core issue for contractors generally, it minimises staff productivity as often the same staff member is entering the same figures into different spreadsheets. It also does not help when real-time decisions are required as data cannot be collated fast enough to make decisions.
After selecting Eque2, Ian commented “I think Construct for Sage will benefit us in a number of ways, particularly in terms of our invoicing as we have recently taken on a buyer who is based away from our offices. With Construct I can now populate the system and send him copies of all the invoices for the jobs we are buying on, which he can now access and manage directly in the system.”.
Ian went on to comment “I think Construct for Sage will enable us to be more efficient and quicker on day to day tasks, at the moment I can spend 2 hours approving invoices”.
“The look and feel of the software is also very reassuring, it looks just like Sage 50 accounts, so everything fits in with what you expect and are used to seeing”.
A key benefit for Dulley is the ability to work quicker and smarter with the aim of maximising cash flow within the business, Ian now saves 2 hours a day which is the equivalent to an extra day and a half per week to drive the business forward in other areas.
Eque2 would like to welcome Dulley on board, whilst looking forward to working together in the future. For more information on Eque2’s Construct for Sage construction accounting software solution please contact a member of our team.
