Frequently Asked Questions

Vergo uses multi-layered data protection. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using AES-256 encryption. We operate on secure, SOC 2-compliant infrastructure with geographically redundant backups. Third-party security audits are conducted regularly to maintain the highest standards of data security.

Most construction companies are fully live with Vergo within one week. The process includes connecting your corporate cards, configuring job cost coding profiles to match your ERP's chart of accounts, integrating with your ERP, and onboarding your field and accounting teams. Vergo's implementation team manages the ERP connection end-to-end.

Every Vergo customer gets a dedicated account manager who handles onboarding, ERP integration, and ongoing support. Our team is available 24/7 via email and live chat. We also provide training videos, how-to guides, and webinars through the Vergo University resource library.

Vergo offers a complimentary guided setup — you don't pay until your system is integrated with your ERP and working the way you want it. Book a demo to get started and see the platform live with your own data.

General expense tools are built for office environments with simple cost center coding. Vergo is built specifically for construction, which means it understands job numbers, cost codes, cost types, phase codes, and the ERP data structures used by Vista, Spectrum, Foundation, Sage, and CMiC. It also handles subcontractor AP invoices, project-based approval routing, and WIP-accurate job cost posting — none of which general tools support natively.

Vergo is built for construction accounting teams — controllers, CFOs, AP managers, and project accountants at general contractors, specialty contractors, subcontractors, and construction management firms. It is also used by field-facing roles like project managers and superintendents who submit expenses and approve invoices on the job site.

Vergo is an expense management and AP invoice automation platform built exclusively for construction accounting teams. It connects any corporate credit card, automates vendor and subcontractor invoice processing, and syncs all data directly into your construction ERP — with job cost coding, project manager approval workflows, and zero manual entry.

Vergo's mobile app is designed to be intuitive enough for field staff to use with minimal training — most superintendents and project managers are submitting expenses within minutes of downloading the app. Vergo provides onboarding materials, training videos, and a dedicated account manager who can run a brief walkthrough with your field team. The accounting team receives more in-depth training on the dashboard, coding profiles, and approval workflow configuration.

Vergo's onboarding is managed by a dedicated implementation specialist who works with your accounting team from day one. The process includes: (1) connecting your corporate cards and AP email inbox, (2) integrating with your construction ERP and importing your job list and cost codes, (3) configuring coding profiles and approval workflows, (4) training your accounting team on the dashboard, and (5) training field staff on the mobile app. Most companies are fully live within one week.

No. Vergo includes ERP integration setup as part of every subscription at no additional charge. Our implementation team handles the technical connection between Vergo and your construction ERP, configures your job cost coding profiles, and supports onboarding for your accounting and field teams. You don't pay until everything is set up and working.

Vergo pricing is based on your company's size and the modules you use — expense management, AP automation, and reimbursements can be used together or independently. Book a demo to get a pricing proposal tailored to your team size and ERP. Vergo does not charge for ERP integration setup, and you do not pay until the system is live and working the way you want it.

Construction companies face a complex compliance environment: prevailing wage requirements, certified payroll reporting, lien waiver management, bonding requirements, and lender covenants — all of which depend on accurate, timely financial records. A system that captures expenses and invoices in real time, enforces job cost coding at submission, and maintains a complete approval audit trail significantly reduces compliance risk and the manual effort required to produce documentation for audits and external reporting.

Yes. Every expense, invoice, and reimbursement processed through Vergo has a complete, timestamped audit trail — including who submitted it, who approved it, what coding was applied, and when it was posted to the ERP. This audit trail is accessible to controllers and CFOs at any time and provides the documentation needed for financial audits, bonding reviews, and lender reporting.

Yes. Vergo uses AES-256 encryption for all data in transit and at rest, operates on SOC 2-compliant infrastructure, and conducts regular third-party security audits. Data is backed up continuously with geographically redundant storage. Role-based access controls ensure that field staff, project managers, and accounting teams only see the data relevant to their role.

Construction ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software is an integrated accounting and project management system designed specifically for construction businesses. It manages job costing, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, subcontract management, and financial reporting in a single platform. Common construction ERPs include Viewpoint Vista, Viewpoint Spectrum, Foundation Software, Sage 300 CRE, Sage 100 Contractor, Sage Intacct Construction, CMiC, Acumatica, and JOBPOWER.

No. Vergo works alongside your construction ERP — it does not replace it. Vergo handles the expense capture, receipt matching, AP invoice processing, and approval workflow layer that ERPs like Vista, Foundation, and Sage are not designed to do efficiently. All approved data flows into your ERP automatically, so your ERP remains the system of record for job cost, GL, and financial reporting.

Vergo integrates natively with both Sage 300 CRE and Sage 100 Contractor. Each integration maps transactions to the correct Job, Cost Code, Category, and GL Account specific to that Sage product's data structure. Field expenses and AP invoices approved in Vergo post directly into Sage's AP and job cost modules — with your existing Sage job list and cost codes available directly in the Vergo mobile app for field selection.

Vergo's native Foundation Software integration maps every transaction to the correct Job Number, Cost Code, Cost Type, and GL Account in Foundation's construction accounting module. Field expenses and AP invoices captured in Vergo post directly into Foundation's AP and job cost modules after approval — with no manual re-entry required from the accounting team.

Vergo's native Viewpoint Vista integration maps every transaction to the correct Job Number, Cost Type, Cost Code, and GL Account in Vista's construction accounting module. Field staff submit receipts with Vista job codes pre-loaded in the Vergo mobile app. AP invoices are captured from your inbox, extracted by AI, approved by the project manager, and posted directly into Vista's AP Transaction Entry — eliminating manual entry and cutting days off month-end close.

Vergo integrates natively with the leading construction ERPs including Viewpoint Vista, Viewpoint Spectrum, Foundation Software, Sage 100 Contractor, Sage 300 CRE, Sage Intacct Construction, Acumatica Construction, CMiC, JOBPOWER, Jonas Construction, Premier Construction Software, ComputerEase, and QuickBooks Desktop and Online. Vergo also integrates with many other ERP platforms across manufacturing, professional services, and enterprise finance.
