What is Structure Blue Software?

Overview

The major quantifiable components of a construction project and a construction business are integrated into the fully integrated accounting software STRUCTURE Blue, which is designed for commercial specialty contractors. The numerous data entry screens and reporting modules of STRUCTURE Blue are integrated to reduce data entry and increase accuracy and cross-links.

A lot of features related to the construction industry are included in the accounting module, including AIA billing, work and materials billing, inventory monitoring, appropriate wage surveys, insurance certifications, and more. Typical core accounting software features like general ledger, AP/AR, and purchase orders are also included in the solution. In the accounting module, STRUCTURE Blue construction management software also provides order entry, payroll processing, and procurement services. The project management and service management modules must be purchased together, although accounting can be purchased separately as a stand-alone system. You can also get custom STRUCTURE Blue software pricing.

Structure Blue Software Modules 

Project Management Module

The Project Management module from Structure Blue is the ideal tool for organising project files, contacts, and financial data. You may manage the whole project from one location. Track the development of your entire project on a single screen. This integrated, user-friendly module allows access to financials, labour tracking, and the creation of bespoke reports. By creating tasks and reminders, you can keep track of the project's "to do" list. Get quick access to the status of each job's related purchase orders, subcontracts, and change requests. Examine a cost enquiry and "dig down" to specific budget data. Create customised transmittals and track submittals and RFIs. You can make a list of tasks that need to be completed for a certain job when you start a new one. Give specific persons certain jobs.

Utilise the system's unique Microsoft Word templates to create unique papers that can be instantly filled with data from STRUCTURE. Add more fields as necessary. Determine what needs to be billed by creating a pencil requisition before beginning the billing process. Send the items that need to be billed to accounting for billing after determining the amount or percent complete. Maintain a contact list with all the people you'll need for each project. For each task you work on, you can add new connections to your address book. You should maintain track of the organisations or clients you are working with as well as the people you have dealt with in the past.

Document Management Module

The Document Management module of Structure Blue makes it simple to save and manage documents digitally for your business. Any document format, including PDF, XLS, DOC, JPEG, and BMP, may be attached. The following entities can have documents associated with them: a job, an employee, a subcontract, a customer, a vendor, a material record, a service location, and equipment. Scan all of your checks, invoices, packing slips, and purchase orders into a single document to save time and work. As you enter them, separate them and attach them to the appropriate record. Save your time and stop looking for documents. You may organise and classify papers using our document management feature so you can find them when you need them.

By simultaneously linking papers to many locations, automated procedures can reduce duplication and boost productivity. Microsoft Outlook and Structure Blue have a smooth integration that makes it simple to add emails directly to the document trail. Easily categorise, filter, and search for employment materials in a single, user-friendly location. Structure Blue is aware that you might want to restrict who is allowed to do what.

Structure Blue review from a user with a non-accounting background

Pros

I really appreciate how simple Structure Blue is. Its simplicity makes it easy for someone without an accounting background to learn the system. As a designer, I've been picking up bookkeeping skills from our CFO to prepare for his retirement. I think this task would have been a lot tougher with more complex software. Even though it's basic, it's still highly adaptable with the help of the CF Data team.

Cons

My main drawback might also be what I appreciate the most about the software, so this is tricky. Many tasks involve several steps to complete when I think they could be done much quicker. However, the upside is that making mistakes is considerably harder.

Structure Blue review from a user with a non-accounting background

Pros

What I appreciate most about Structure Blue is its simplicity. It makes learning the system really straightforward, even for those without an accounting background. I'm a designer by profession, but I've spent the last few years learning bookkeeping from our CFO to take over his role when he retires. I think this task could have been much more complex with more advanced software. Although it's simple, it's still highly customizable with support from the CF Data team.

Cons

My biggest con might also be what I like the most about the software, so this one's tricky. There are many tasks that involve multiple steps when I think they could be done much faster. However, the upside is that it's much harder to make mistakes.
