Through experience with people who run projects, I noticed how easily profit can start to weaken while the job is still underway — often before the contractor clearly sees it.
That is exactly why I came up with the idea to develop CPG — a simple tool that allows contractors to track costs, margin, change orders and profit in one place. I did not want another complicated system, but a tool that gives a clearer view and greater control over what is happening with your projects, so you can spot problems earlier and protect profit before you realize things are no longer going the way you planned.
A job can be priced well and still finish weaker than expected. Not because the contractor cannot do the work, but because the financial picture keeps changing while attention is on crews, deadlines, clients, materials and getting the job done.
CPG does not tell you how to run the job. It gives pricing, costs, changes, margin and profit one place to stay connected while the project is moving.
Pricing. Costs. Change orders. Margin. Profit.
Instead of keeping each part somewhere different and trying to rebuild the story later, CPG connects the job-profit workflow from one starting point.
The dashboard is where you enter the job and move into the part you need next — project setup, pricing, costs, change orders, reports or profit control, depending on your plan.
When you enter and update project data, CPG keeps the important pieces tied together so you can compare what you planned with what is actually happening.
A project can look busy and productive while the margin is getting weaker underneath it. CPG is built to keep that financial picture visible early enough for you to make your own decision before the job is closed out.
If you manage more than one job, PREMIUM adds Project Manager so each project keeps its own pricing, costs and status while remaining easy to open and manage.
Start with the essentials, add change-order control, or unlock the full multi-project workspace.
For contractors who want clean job setup, pricing, cost tracking and profit visibility without extra complexity.
For active contractors who need to keep extra work and job changes visible before they eat into the margin.
For contractors who want the complete CPG workspace, reports and separate control across multiple jobs.
