ERP Solution for Construction: Efficient Tendering and Contract Awarding
Tendering and contract awarding are critical phases in the construction process. The ERP system for the construction industry helps you process bills of quantities in a structured way and calculate quotations quickly and reliably. You draw on current prices for materials, labor and subcontracted services – all directly within the construction ERP system.
Integrated processes create clear comparison options for subcontractors and specialist trades. Decisions can be made traceably and on a solid factual basis. The result: greater confidence in quotations, faster contract awarding and better procurement terms – with no manual intermediate steps or separate tools.

VOB-Compliant Quotation & Price Sheets: VOB-compliant quotations at the push of a button
Automatic generation of original calculation (Urkalkulation), unit price sheets and EFB forms in accordance with VOB. Legally compliant quotation phase generated directly from the system.
Separation of Commercial Calculation & Technical Execution: From quotation to execution – structured and controllable
Clear separation between quotation calculation and operational project execution. Transfer into work packages and project structures for controllable implementation. The commercial and technical views are kept separate yet intelligently connected within the project process.
Materials, Procurement & Resources Under Control: Avoid bottlenecks, reduce site downtime and keep costs in check.
Procurement, material requirements, inventory levels and site equipment are managed centrally. You always have visibility of when material is needed, when it will be delivered and where it will be deployed – including project-specific warehouses and scheduling of equipment and machinery.
Site Measurement & Construction Billing (REB / VOB): Invoicing that is faster, more reliable and fully traceable
Services are recorded in conformance with REB 23.003, including import and export of measurement data (e.g., DA11, X31). On this basis, you create advance, interim and final invoices in accordance with VOB – including payment schedules and industry-specific requirements such as §13b VAT Act.
Variations, Bonds & Compliance: Reduce project risks and maintain full control – even on complex construction projects
Project changes (variations) are recorded in a structured manner and integrated directly into calculation and execution. In addition, you manage bonds as well as subcontractor documents and ensure that all compliance requirements are met – for example, through automatic validity checks.
Project Planning, Controlling & ERP Integration: Manage projects on a sound financial basis
Plan projects visually using a graphical planning board, coordinate resources and identify dependencies at an early stage. Concurrent calculation and controlling keep costs, progress and results permanently in view. All data is seamlessly integrated into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central – for end-to-end processes without system breaks.
