Overview
Contractor Foreman is construction management software built for general contractors, subcontractors, trade contractors and service contractors, marketed as a low-cost all-in-one alternative to enterprise construction platforms. It runs on web, tablet and mobile and bundles project management, financials, scheduling, CRM and document management into one system.
The platform organizes functionality around project workflows -- estimates, bids, change orders, purchase orders, invoices and daily logs -- alongside people-management tools like crew scheduling, time cards, team chat and safety meetings. It targets small and medium-sized residential and commercial contractors who need job costing and field-to-office coordination without enterprise pricing.
Contractor Foreman connects to QuickBooks Online (Plus and Advanced) and QuickBooks Desktop through a two-way sync that pushes contacts, invoices, payments, bills and project/sub-customer records between the two systems, aiming to eliminate double-entry while keeping job costing accurate.
