One Integrated Truth
Construction Value Reconciliation (CVR)
In an industry with low project margins, high unpredictability, and fierce competition (both domestic and international), it takes little to turn a profitable project into a loss-making project, putting the whole business at risk.
Every established business has an accounting system, but managing project financial control effectively is far more complex.
The goal is to move to a world where the project cost control solution can automatically generate a project cost and revenue forecast with minimal intervention from the user.
Automatically generate a project cost
IFS Cloud and Anthesis will enable you to do so by providing accurate Project Financial Control supporting four key areas:
- Financial Accounting
- Cost and Revenue Transactions (Commercial Management)
- Project and Contract Management
- Project Cost Control
The complete and integrated project financial control IFS Cloud solution manages all elements that influence a project’s current and future position, including risks, cash, contract changes and forecasts to ensure project margins remain on track.
