contractERP Software
contractERP is designed specifically for suppliers, distributors, manufacturers and service companies providing building material and building product to construction projects. The solution is used by organizations that supply materials for both commercial and residential projects.
From the initial contract to final delivery of materials, contractERP® manages various operations of a distribution business process. It offers bid management, contract sales, front counter operations, warehouse management, inventory management, purchasing and procurement, transportation management, accounting and demand and order management.
Schedules for shop work, service resources and delivery are managed centrally, so teams can monitor each movement of materials. Customizable settings can be fitted to each individual user, so the system will automatically notify them of any issues. It also provides quick accesses to the most relevant information for their position. Other features include contract management, product configuration wizards, and material handling. All reporting on cost of inventory and contracts is delivered in real time.
contractERP® is built on Microsoft Dynamics NAV platform. It also interfaces with third-party bidding and detailing systems, such as ePWS and ProTech.

It is a bit overwhelming at first glance. The many available screens can be cumbersome and easy to get lost in.
Recommendations
Offer thorough training before the Go Live date or before turning a new employee loose on it.

ContractERP & AccessIT
Likes Best
The product allows for complete visibility of project and order process flow, most importantly profitability. AccessIT provides phenomenal support before, during, and after implementation. We have been on the system since 2009 and could not be happier.

There is no "undo" button. Fortunately, this is also a great example of how tightly wound the accounting structure of ContractERP is.
Recommendations
Allow plenty of time on the front end to implement ContractERP. AccessIT is an expert company for a reason. Listen to their recommendations. Do not try to implement a tremendous amount of modifications. What you might feel is a necessity is probably not worth the cost nor the effort. Develop a team to implement. The team needs ownership, management, accounting, and project management involvement.

The team and the software knows our business. They have made so much wasted resources, inventory, and money go away.

The only thing I dislike is that we did not find them ten or more years ago.
Recommendations
We found them to be one of the only solutions specifically for building products.
