Digital Production Control gives you total job visibility to recognize labor production problems instantly. By integrating the takeoff and estimating processes, this powerful program digitally tracks labor production and payroll directly from the field to the project manager's work station in the office. Color coded plans display work in progress and indicate exactly where labor-cost overruns are occurring. Now the foreman can know immediately what production was expected to be achieved on each cost code and phase of the job. This dynamic tool lets you know if your project is winning or losing the budget war. If the last 5% of the job is draining 50% of your profits, Digital Production Control is your answer!

To use of Digital Production Control, your On-Screen Takeoff Bid must be set up using Price Using Quick Bid Interactive. Digital Production Control tracks labor activity by using the Labor Cost Codes you included in your Conditions when you priced them in Quick Bid. The Labor Quantities and Hours Shown on the Labor tab are calculated based on the Labor Activity as set in the Condition Detail item in Quick Bid.
Every contractor has a list of payroll labor cost codes. Theses codes (LCCs) will determine how accurately labor is tracked on the job site. Well defined labor codes will allow you to more accurately track job site progress against the budget.
The Digital Production Control User Guide is available by contacting your Account Manager or inserting the installation CD into your computer and clicking "Documentation".
