e-Builder Launches Cost Module For Managing Project Costs
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — e-Builder (www.e-builder.net) has announced the launch of its Enterprise Cost Module, a fully-integrated tool that owners can use to manage costs at all stages of the capital development and construction process, says the company. In use by several of e-Builder’s clients since late 2002, the module integrates with the e-Builder Enterprise system and is designed to complement existing corporate accounting systems.
The Cost Module streamlines cost-related communication and alerts project teams if requested actions have cost implications, the company says. For example, if a team approves changes that impact cost, the system automatically carries the cost information forward and converts it to a change order request and then into a change order to be processed. All related collaboration and history is attached to the change order and archived.
