Field-to-finance for civil contractors

The money in your job, measured to the metre.

Your crew captures the day on site — every hour, every load, every metre of pipe. CivilFlow turns it into costs, claims and earned value the office can trust. No double entry. No claim-day reconciliation. No finding out you are underwater three months too late.

The gap nobody owns

Submitted isn't certified. Certified isn't paid.

The site speaks in quantities. The office speaks in dollars. When those two live in fourteen spreadsheets and a group chat, you cannot see your real position — and you cannot spot the job quietly eating your margin until it is a write-down.

Three numbers. One source of truth.

CivilFlow tracks submitted, certified and paid as what they actually are — three different commercial truths. So you always know your real cashflow, your retention held to date, and exactly which client is sitting on your money.

The actual product

Every metre on site, on a curve you can read.

Earned value on a cost basis — not a vanity percentage. The green line is what you have earned; the blue is what it actually cost. When they cross, you know before the month-end report does.

What it does

Built by people who have stood in the mud on claim day.

Five minutes. No signal. No rates.

Supervisors log crew, plant and progress against the BOQ from the cab — fully offline. Active, idle and standby hours, dockets, a photo, a near-miss. They never see a cost rate or a dollar. You get a fully costed day the moment it syncs.

offline-firstper-identityBOQ-linked

Claims that build themselves.

Approved site quantities flow straight into your claim schedule. Retention, GST, approved and at-risk variations, and your last certified position are already in. Issue on the reference date — not three days late, not a dollar short.

Margin you can see coming.

Earned value on a true cost basis, per item and per job. A CPI that answers "are we making money", not a percent-complete that flatters you. Spot the job tracking behind programme before it becomes a write-down.

Compliance you can prove.

A White Card that expired yesterday will not make it onto an approved report. Every High-Risk Work Licence, every induction, every variation and unlock — logged, dated and defensible if the regulator or the principal ever asks.

The loop the audit found

Phone daily report to defensible progress claim.

  • Phone daily report

    Crew capture the day from the cab — no rates, no signal needed.

  • Compliance-gated approval

    Expired tickets block approval; the PM signs off a clean report.

  • Auto-costing

    Office rates apply on approval — the field never sees a dollar.

  • EVM margin

    CPI and forecast margin update per item, per job.

  • Defensible progress claim

    Quantities flow into the claim with retention and variations in.

Your numbers, locked down

Your cost rates never leave your org.

Rate cards are the most sensitive thing you own. CivilFlow treats them that way — redacted from the field, sealed from the client, and isolated at the database itself.

Tenant-isolated

Row-level security at the database — your data is invisible to every other org, by construction.

Append-only audit

Who changed what, when, with what reason. Tamper-evident. Built for the day you get audited.

Role-sealed financials

Supervisors see hours, clients see dollars, only you see cost. Permissions, not promises.

Encrypted end to end

Encryption at rest and in transit, backups and monitoring — the controls auditors expect.

Stop claiming blind.

See it on one of your own jobs. We will load a BOQ and a fortnight of dailies, and show you the curve.
