Forecast project cash flow
Spread the priced work across the programme to see cash in and cash out month by month, find where the balance dips negative, and report it early enough to do something about it.
How it works, step by step
3 steps across the platform - what you do at each one, and why it matters.
Spread the cost over the programme
ScheduleTie the priced bill to the schedule so each activity carries its cost, then let the spend spread across the timeline to give a month-by-month cost curve rather than one lump total.
Why: A total tells you what the job costs but not when the money leaves, and construction lives or dies on timing. Spreading cost over the programme turns the budget into the profile a cash forecast can be built on.
Build the cash flow
FinanceSet the income against the cost curve using the payment terms, retention and the lag between valuation and money in, then read the running balance to find where it goes negative.
Why: A profitable job can still run out of cash mid-build because payment always lags spend. Seeing the low point in advance is what lets you arrange funding or reprofile work before it becomes a crisis on site.
Report and manage it
ReportsProduce the cash flow report with the funding requirement and the peak exposure marked, and update it each period as actual valuations and payments replace the forecast ones.
Why: A cash forecast is only useful if it reaches the people who arrange the money and is kept current. Refreshed every period, it turns from a one-off guess into an early warning the whole business can act on.
