On Center Software’s Digital Production Control™ application integrates the takeoff and estimation process by digitally tracking labor production and payroll directly from the field to the project manager’s office. This powerful program gives you the ability to recognize labor production problems instantly rather than at the end of a job where overruns can be more costly.

User Scenarios

In a typical dual-user scenario, Project Managers are responsible for creating employee files, analyzing bids, budget tracking, and reviewing and approving timesheets.

Foremen are responsible for entering production completion percentage information, entering timecard data, and creating notes to explain production variances.  The Foreman has access to the plans (drawings) and takeoff from On-Screen Takeoff and will be able to apply production control to the job, but will not be able to make changes to takeoffs.  The Foreman needs a dpc-foreman license only.
