Know Your Profit, on Every Single Job

Automate Your Job Costing

Commusoft performs automated job costing by pulling in expenses as they happen. As engineers add parts and log their hours, all associated costs are automatically allocated to the job in real-time, providing a live view of its financial status without requiring manual data entry.

Capture Accurate Labour Costs

Track labour costs precisely with digital timesheets. Engineers can clock in/out via the app, automatically recording travel and on-site time with timestamps. This provides verifiable proof of work and reduces manual timesheet reliance. The system also accounts for varying pay rates based on skills, shifts, and overtime, ensuring accurate labor costs.

Manage Material Costs Seamlessly

Never miss a material cost again. Every part and PO is tracked against the job. Whether an engineer uses a part from their van stock or you create a purchase order for a specific component, the cost is automatically included in the jobโ€™s total, ensuring complete financial accuracy. plus any markup you’ve applied.

Stay on Track with Proactive Budgeting

Protect your profit margins on large, complex jobs. With our budgeting tools, you can set an estimated cost and revenue for a project from the outset. Commusoft will then track your actual costs against this budget in real-time. If costs begin to overrun, you’ll receive alerts that allow you to take corrective action before the job becomes unprofitable.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prevent margin drift on larger installation projects?

You can prevent margin drift on larger installation projects by tracking real-time labor and material costs against your original job estimate. Commusoftโ€™s job costing software automatically pulls in engineers' hours and parts usage, so you can see exactly where costs are slipping, from unbilled materials to excess travel time. With this visibility, you can adjust pricing and field behaviour before you lose profit.

How can UK renewables installers protect project margins against rising material costs?

Renewables installers in the UK protect project margins by using Commusoftโ€™s job costing software to track live spend on components, such as solar inverters or heat pump units, against their initial quote. By automatically pulling in labour hours from engineer timesheets and costs from UK wholesalers like City Plumbing or Woseley, managers can spot unprofitable jobs instantly. This real-time visibility ensures your final gross profit stays intact despite fluctuating supply chain prices.

Can I see which engineers are most profitable for my business?

Yes, Commusoft shows which engineers are most profitable by linking individual labour costs directly to job revenue. Engineers' workload and profitability reports highlight who completes work efficiently or who regularly overruns their labour budget. Business owners can use this data for performance reviews and to assign top engineers to complex, high-value projects that need strong margins.
