Product overview

From Estimate to Completion — One Connected System

Information in ObraOne stays organized around the structure of the job: the plans you measure, the sections you price, the cost codes you track, and the phases you build. Each step hands its data to the next.

  1. 01

    Takeoff

    Upload plan sheets, calibrate the scale, and measure area, linear, count, and volume conditions.

    Conditions carry a unit, unit cost, waste %, and cost code.

  2. 02

    Estimate

    Generate the estimate from the takeoff or build it by hand from templates, assemblies, or pasted scope text.

    Sections group the work by trade or phase.

  3. 03

    Sections & Line Items

    Each line carries description, category, quantity, unit, unit cost, margin, and cost code.

    Labor, materials, equipment, subcontractor, other.

  4. 04

    Cost Codes

    A CSI-division cost code catalog is seeded for every organization and can be extended per project.

    01 General Conditions … 03 Concrete … 26 Electrical.

  5. 05

    Project

    Generate Project turns every estimate section into a phase and every line into a budgeted phase line item.

    Quantity, unit cost, budget, category, and notes are preserved.

  6. 06

    Execution & Billing

    Track actual cost and % complete per line, keep the buy list, run the schedule of values, and invoice completed work.

    Job cost and WIP reports read from the same records.

Project → Phases → Line Items → Cost Codes

Generate Project turns every estimate section into a phase and every estimate line into a phase line item with its quantity, unit cost, budget, category, and cost code intact — the same records the buy list, schedule of values, invoices, and job cost report are built from.

Features

Built around how construction work is actually priced, built, and billed.

Every screen below is ObraOne today: takeoff and estimating, project cost breakdown, job costing, the company dashboard, field operations, and billing.

Takeoff & Estimating

Build detailed estimates organized the way you actually bid.

Measure quantities straight off the plans, then build the estimate by section with real units, unit costs, and margins. Templates and assemblies keep repeat work fast.

  • Plan takeoff with area, linear, count, and volume conditions — waste %, conversion factors, and round-up-to-package built in
  • Sections (phases) with labor, materials, equipment, subcontractor, and other line items
  • Quantity × unit cost × margin per line, with subtotal, profit, and total estimate
  • Estimate templates, assembly library, and Paste & Parse scope text into line items
  • Download a PDF, email it to the client, approve it, or convert it to an invoice

Project Management

Move from estimate to active project without re-entering a thing.

Generate Project creates the project, its phases, its cost codes, and every budgeted line item from the approved estimate. From there the whole team works from one project record.

  • Overview with client, location, dates, budget vs. spent, team, and activity
  • Cost Breakdown by phase: qty, unit cost, budget, actual, and % complete per line
  • Timeline, calendar, and Gantt views of phases and tasks
  • Field tab with daily logs, photos & documents, and jobsite check-in
  • Project inventory, buy list, and linked vendors per phase

Job Costing

Know where every dollar is against the budget, by cost code.

Budgets, commitments, cost entries, and expenses roll up by cost code and phase. The Controls tab adds the schedule of values, change orders, RFIs, and submittals to the same project.

  • Budget line items, purchase orders & subcontracts, and actual cost entries per cost code
  • Schedule of Values with % complete, billed to date, and bill-this-period progress billing
  • Change orders that sync into the budget, plus RFIs and submittals with status tracking
  • Project expenses with receipt capture and payroll from team pay rates
  • Job Cost, WIP (over/under billed), Profit per Project, and Invoice Aging reports with CSV export

Company Dashboard

The whole operation on one screen.

Projects, budgets, invoices, safety, dispatch, and certifications summarized for the office, with alerts and a live activity feed underneath.

  • Total and active projects, total budget, revenue collected, and overdue invoices
  • Revenue trend for the last 12 months and budget vs. spent across the portfolio
  • Open safety incidents, expiring certifications, active dispatches, and on-time delivery rate
  • Payments summary, calendar, recent invoices, and the organization activity feed
  • Every card links straight into the module it summarizes

Why ObraOne

Construction Is Complicated. Your Software Shouldn't Be.

Most of the friction in a construction office comes from the same information living in too many places. ObraOne keeps it in one project record, from the first takeoff to the final invoice.

  • Before: Estimates spread across spreadsheets
    With ObraOne: Estimates live in ObraOne with sections, units, cost codes, templates, and PDF output.
  • Before: Project information stored in different systems
    With ObraOne: Estimate, project, field, billing, and reports read from the same project record.
  • Before: Difficult cost tracking
    With ObraOne: Budget, committed, actual, and forecast per cost code with variance on the job cost report.
  • Before: Disconnected scopes and quantities
    With ObraOne: Takeoff quantities flow into estimate lines, then into budgeted phase line items.
  • Before: Duplicate data entry
    With ObraOne: Generate Project carries every section, line, quantity, and cost code forward automatically.
  • Before: Important information buried in emails or files
    With ObraOne: Daily logs, photos, documents, RFIs, submittals, and change orders attach to the project.
  • Before: Office and field working from different information
    With ObraOne: Crews check in, log the day, and report from their phone into the same project the office sees.

Who it's for

Built for the people who price, run, and bill construction work.

ObraOne fits the workflow of the office and the field, whether you self-perform or manage subs.

General Contractors

Run the project record end to end: estimate, phases and cost codes, subcontract commitments, change orders, SOV progress billing, and WIP reporting.

Subcontractors

Bid fast with templates and assemblies, generate the project from the awarded estimate, track crew hours and materials, and invoice completed line items.

Specialty Contractors

Measure conditions on the plans, price by unit, keep your own cost codes, and manage equipment, inventory, and safety in the same system.

Estimators

Takeoff, conditions with waste and conversion factors, sections, margins, and a client-ready PDF — plus Paste & Parse for scope text.

Project Managers

Cost breakdown by phase, % complete, buy lists, daily logs, timeline and Gantt, RFIs and submittals, all on one project page.

Construction Operations Teams

Dashboard, dispatch and fleet map, equipment maintenance, certifications and compliance, roles and permissions across multiple companies.

How it works

Four steps from first measurement to final invoice.

The same records move forward at each step, so nothing is retyped between estimating, production, and billing.

  1. 01

    Create Your Project

    Set up the client, location, and dates. Your organization comes with a CSI-division cost code catalog you can extend per project.

  2. 02

    Build Your Estimate

    Measure the plans or start from a template. Add sections and line items with quantities, units, unit costs, categories, margins, and cost codes.

  3. 03

    Move Into Production

    Approve the estimate or click Generate Project. Sections become phases and every line becomes a budgeted phase line item — nothing is retyped.

  4. 04

    Track the Project

    Log actual costs and % complete, keep the buy list current, run daily logs and check-ins, bill from the schedule of values, and watch the job cost report.

Benefits

What changes when the whole workflow is connected.

Less Double Entry

Enter quantities and costs once in the estimate and use them through budgeting, execution, and billing.

Better Organization

Sections, phases, cost codes, and line items keep information structured around the actual scope of the job.

Faster Estimating

Templates, assemblies, takeoff conditions, and Paste & Parse cut the repetitive part of pricing work.

Clearer Project Visibility

Dashboard, project overview, and job cost reports give the office one view of budget, actual, and progress.

More Consistent Processes

Every project follows the same path from estimate to project to invoice, with roles and permissions per module.

Office and Field Connected

Daily logs, photos, check-ins, and field reports land on the same project the office manages.
