Command Post is a revolutionary software tool for contractors that keeps your company organized by providing one central place to store and retrieve key information about all of your projects.  We don't just mean the active projects -- we mean ALL the projects your company has ever bid AND projects far in the future. Command Post not only streamlines communications about job status, but also affords the business owner up-to-the-minute real time bidding success analysis, plus status reports, and a myriad of other valuable ways of looking at and analyzing what's happening in your company. You might think of Command Post as a "job information manager" - customized for the contractor to track, analyze, and communicate key information about jobs, contacts and employees.

• Command Post is a value-packed professional quality relational database system which stores and manages some basic information about your construction business: your jobs, clients, employees, and other contacts.
• Command Post produces a vast amount of useful information and analysis from a relatively small amount of key data items.
• Command Post is so easy to use that even computer novices will be comfortable with it.
• Command Post does not replace any of your existing software. And no other packaged software even comes close to providing the bottom line benefits you'll receive from Command Post.

Yes! 

Using Command Post is very easy! Unlike your company's accounting, estimating, or project management software, Command Post requires no specialized professional knowledge or training. Getting information in and out of Command Post is a snap (or a click!) thanks to the self-explanatory, common sense interface. Much of the data you enter is selected from simple pull-down menus. 

And whenever you have a question about one of the screens or fields, just place your cursor on the item in question and press the F1 key to view specific help about that field or screen. Command Post comes with a working sample database and accompanying tutorial so you can practice using the software without accidentally altering any of your company’s real data!

Everyone! 

From the receptionist who needs to look up a job phone number or address to the business owner who needs to know what's happening on a company-wide basis, Command Post gives every user in your organization a direct benefit ... and that benefit increases every time Command Post is used!

If you're not using Command Post now, and three or more of the following characteristics describe your firm, you're missing an opportunity for greater profits:

• Your firm employs between 2 - 100 employees (this is not a hard limit -- if you have 110 employees, you should still talk to us!)
• Your firm engages in one or more contracting trades - as either a general or subcontractor.
• Your firm depends on constantly attracting new business, and often has several contracts active at a time.
• Your firm has, or is planning to acquire, at least one Windows-based PC. You're ready to do what it takes to increase your company's efficiency, profitability, and competitiveness.
• You've thought of trying to develop your own custom database application because there seems to be nothing available that does what you want.
• You like the idea of an "enterprise" software package, but don't like the high initial cost or the high risk of making a major commitment in redesigning your business systems, retraining your personnel, and disrupting your current tried and true systems, just to find out whether the enterprise system will even work for your firm.
• And you're not too crazy about the idea of depending on a single vendor for all your mission critical systems.
• Command Post is the software for the rest of us -- it works along side whatever estimating, accounting, project management, contact management and document management systems you are currently using, and delivers "enterprise" type benefits at no risk and relatively insignificant cost. This is a key point worth repeating -- your company and your people do not have to give up any of their favorite systems in order to use Command Post.
• Want to switch accounting systems? Allow project managers to use different project management software for different jobs? NO PROBLEM! With Command Post you have infinite flexibility to upgrade and fine-tune your mission-critical systems whenever you want. Long after these systems have been replaced (and your data stored in them difficult or impossible to access) Command Post will still be there for you with all of your current -- and key historical data -- at your fingertips.

No!

While Command Post gives you more information out the more data you put in, it doesn’t require you to fill in every single data field. By entering only two things: the job name and job status, (job number is automatically assigned by Command Post) you will have instant access to:

• With just 2 pieces of job information, Command Post gives you the benefit of these useful reports:
• Bids Due – shows all of your jobs to be bid.
• Bids Pending – shows what bids you need to follow-up on.
• Active Jobs – shows what jobs are currently under construction.
• Delivered Jobs – shows what jobs are substantially complete with open issues.
• Warranty Jobs – shows jobs in the warranty period.
• Lost Jobs – shows jobs that were bid and lost.
• A Master Job Log Report

Many contracting companies use an unwieldy assortment of spreadsheets to try to track key management information. They do this because there's no other choice - their other software systems (accounting, project management, estimating, CAD, etc.) don't work together to provide the big picture needed by upper management. Now, you have a choice, because Command Post was designed to organize the type of information you need to see the big picture -- eliminating dozens of miscellaneous, error prone spreadsheets, and saving you time and money in the process. 

Command Post does not replace your accounting system; its function is substantially different. Your accounting program helps you document and verify transactions which happened in the past. Command Post helps you analyze the past, but more importantly it helps communicate what’s happening in the present, and forecast what will happen in the future.

Likewise, Command Post does not replace your project management/scheduling, estimating, document management, or CAD systems. Command Post’s independence from these systems means freedom and flexibility for your company. You are free to change or upgrade these other systems whenever it is in your advantage to do so, or to use different tools for different jobs. You aren’t bound to one vendor for upgrades to these critical systems.
