What it is for
A renovation almost always costs more than planned because expenses get lost in receipts, messages and verbal agreements. Here you keep a crew work log and a purchase log, and the summary compares plan and actual for each section, shows what you owe the crew and warns about an overrun before the renovation is over.
What's inside
- "Settings": project, dates, budget by section separately for work and materials, section completion.
- "Work": a log for 500 records — date, section, type of work, quantity, unit, rate, cost, paid and remaining debt to the crew.
- "Materials": a purchase log for 500 records — material, quantity, price, amount, supplier, receipt number.
- "Summary": plan and actual by section, remaining budget, amount owed to the crew, forecast final cost and two charts.
Who it is for
People renovating an apartment or a house or building a country home and hiring a crew, site managers and foremen running several projects, and small renovation companies.
