ADP handles payroll and HR well but lacks built-in expense management, so construction teams typically need a separate tool for job-cost coding and receipt capture. Platforms like Vergo address this by layering purpose-built expense workflows on top of existing payroll systems without replacing them.
Construction companies face unique expense management challenges that generic ERP systems like ADP can't handle. With distributed job sites, field workers often purchase materials and services on the fly, leading to a flood of paper receipts that get lost or misplaced. This makes it difficult to accurately track job costs and maintain a clear view of the company's financial health.
The inability to efficiently manage construction expenses has tangible impacts on the business:
Instead of relying on the expense features in their ERP, savvy construction companies are adopting dedicated expense management platforms like Vergo. These purpose-built solutions streamline expense capture, approval, and reporting for distributed construction teams. For example, field workers can instantly log expenses on their mobile devices, while the accounting team gains full visibility and control over the process.
Vergo integrates directly with leading construction ERPs to provide a seamless, construction-specific expense management workflow. This helps construction companies gain real-time visibility into job costs, accelerate their month-end close, and eliminate the headaches of paper receipts and manual data entry.
Vergo is a card-agnostic expense management platform built for construction. Connect any corporate or project credit card and get full visibility and control over field spending.
Inaccurate job costing and late expense reporting make it difficult to maintain visibility into project profitability. This can lead to unexpected overruns, change orders, and cash flow issues.
Yes, Vergo offers direct integrations with leading construction ERPs like Sage, Viewpoint, and CMiC. This allows you to connect expense data to your core accounting and project management systems.
Vergo's mobile app makes it easy for field workers to quickly log expenses, take photos of receipts, and submit for approval — all from their smartphones. This eliminates the need to save paper receipts and manually enter data later.
Construction companies that adopt dedicated expense management see 3-5 days shaved off their month-end close process. They also gain better visibility into job costs and project profitability.
