Those charged with managing complex project lifecycles are often forced to use separate software products to manage different stages of the project – tendering, commercial, estimating, engineering, procurement, manufacturing & fabrication, planning, cost control, construction, installation and commissioning.
Our enterprise project management software capabilities unite these steps in a single integrated process, pulling data on real-time activities directly into a project plan. This affords the ultimate in control and visibility, enabling real-time control over cost, cash, time, resources and risk. We offer a true project-based solution – in essence, an enterprise solution built around project management principles rather than repetitive processes.
Don’t just take our word for it
Now that everything is inside IFS, we’re able to spend several more hours per week focusing on what really matters to a construction project, which is providing value to our clients.

With our solution, the entire business works to a single, centralized project plan that tracks and adapts to changing project requirements, so the plan evolves as the project evolves.
Capturing project cost in Project ERP
Most Enterprise Resource Planning software is not designed to effectively capture cost in a project-based environment like engineer to order, engineer procure construct or services. This white paper covers organizational and technology barriers to capturing project cost along with criteria to select the ideal ERP for effective project costing.
