Consumption Management
When we examine construction projects carefully, we observe that thousands of items of material are used to create the structure to be created. Proper management of these materials is critical to effectively controlling the cost of the project.
Accurate Monitoring of Project Budget
Accurate monitoring of the project budget is directly related to the error-free entry of realization records. The following steps should be followed to accurately track the realization records of materials:
- Material Entry into the Warehouse: Material must be recorded as soon as it enters the warehouse.
- Material Usage: As used, it should be written off as a cost to the project.
Most businesses write off all costs of the material as an expense at the time of purchase and do not control the warehouse entry and exit records. This method causes even materials that are not yet in production to be written off as expenses. As a result, the project budget is tracked incorrectly and cost control cannot be achieved.
Consumption Management with Navappro Construction Management Software
Navappro Construction Management software enables you to effectively manage the following processes with its Consumption Management enhancement that simplifies material management:
Use of Project Journals:
- Project logs are used for Consumption Management. Since these logs directly pull data from the inventory module, the cost information of the consumed material is accurately reflected in the project cost. Thus, correct cost calculations are made for each material.
Detailed Consumption Information:
- When consuming materials from project logs, you can select which activity, location and position the consumption is for. In this way, detailed information is obtained about which part of the project the consumed material is used in. This information provides great convenience in future reporting processes.
Consumption in Line with Project Budget:
- Consumption of materials not included in the project budget can be blocked from the project logs. Thus, transferring materials not included in the budget to the project cost is prevented. This feature is important for ensuring cost control and prevents budget overruns in the project.
Instant Registration Entry:
- Project logs can be run on tablets and mobile phones as well as computers. This makes it possible to enter instant material realization records without interruption in the field. Thus, work done in the field is recorded without loss of time.
Material management in construction projects allows you to effectively control the costs and budget of the project. Navappro Construction Management software facilitates this process with the Consumption Management development, helping you track your costs more accurately. With the effective use of project logs, instant recording operations can be performed, you can optimize your cost management and successfully complete your projects.
