How does Vergo work alongside UDA ConstructionSuite?
UDA ConstructionSuite is an operations platform for estimating and project management, and your books live in an accounting system next to it — QuickBooks, Sage, or another general ledger. Vergo handles expense management against that accounting system: it reads your GL accounts and coding structure, codes every transaction by AI inference from your own history, and posts clean entries where your books actually live.
Why doesn't Vergo connect to ConstructionSuite directly?
ConstructionSuite is a desktop product that integrates with the rest of your stack through file exchange — most notably its QuickBooks integration — rather than through a hosted API of its own; the API in UDA's lineup belongs to the cloud ConstructionOnline product. That design actually maps cleanly onto how Vergo works: ConstructionSuite already treats QuickBooks as the ledger it syncs to, and Vergo connects to that same ledger. Your estimates and project management stay in ConstructionSuite; your spend flows through Vergo into the accounting system both sides already agree is the system of record.
What does that mean for a builder day to day?
- Field staff submit receipts by text message — no new app alongside ConstructionSuite
- Every transaction is coded to your accounting structure automatically, with the reasoning shown — a lumber run, a subcontractor deposit and a fuel fill-up each land on the right account, job and cost code
- Because the coding lands in the same QuickBooks file ConstructionSuite reads, your job costs stay consistent between your estimates and your actuals
- Approvals run on your rules before anything posts
- Your accounting system stays the system of record, reconciled next to ConstructionSuite
Do you have to change cards?
No. Vergo is card-agnostic — it connects to the corporate, fuel and personal cards your business already holds. Supers keep the cards they carry today; Vergo captures the transactions and does the coding work.
What about the receipts themselves?
Vergo reads each receipt line by line rather than just the header, so the GL and cost-code prediction reflects what was actually bought — framing lumber versus finish materials versus tools — not just the vendor name on top. Each coding shows its reasoning, so your bookkeeper confirms in seconds instead of re-coding by hand against the job list.
How do you get started?
Connect the QuickBooks file or other ledger you already reconcile against, connect the cards, and Vergo learns your coding — accounts, jobs, cost codes — from your own history. ConstructionSuite keeps running your estimating and project management exactly as it does today.
Where should you go next?
Does Vergo integrate directly with UDA ConstructionSuite?
No — and it does not need to. UDA ConstructionSuite is an operations platform, not a general ledger. Vergo connects to the accounting system your books live in, which is where expense management belongs.
Which accounting systems does Vergo connect to?
Vergo integrates with every major ERP and accounting system, each with its own integration page setting out how the sync works.
Do we have to change cards?
No. Vergo works with the cards your business already has.
