Software for civil contractors

Know your job costs before month-end

MKTSS builds the tools civil construction companies actually need: daily field costing against your own cost codes, estimating that talks to the field, purchasing, and bid tracking — all on one set of rates and codes.

Fieldbook is first out of the gate. Bidbook, Orderbook and Leadbook follow.

The suite

Four books. One set of cost codes.

Each product stands on its own and runs at its own address under mktss.net. Together they share your companies, users, equipment rates, labour classes and cost codes — set them up once, use them everywhere.

Launching first

FieldbookDaily field costing & timesheets

The job's daily record, straight from the crew. Foremen enter labour, equipment, supplies and subcontractors against cost codes, with the day's production. The office sees unit costs versus estimate the next morning, not the next month.

  • Daily timesheets by crew, phone-friendly
  • Productions tracked per cost code
  • Live unit cost vs. budget
  • Equipment and labour rates you control

BidbookEstimating

Build estimates from the same cost codes, crews and rates the field reports against — so when a job is won, the budget is already in the format Fieldbook tracks. Close the loop between what you bid and what it actually cost.

  • Crew- and production-based pricing
  • Historical unit costs from Fieldbook
  • Budget hand-off on award

OrderbookPurchase orders

Purchase orders coded to the job and cost code at the moment they're raised, so committed costs show up in Fieldbook before the invoice does. No more surprises when the supplier statement arrives.

  • POs by job and cost code
  • Committed vs. invoiced tracking
  • Supplier and rental management

LeadbookOpportunity tracking

Every tender, close date and owner in one place. Track what's out, what's due, what you won and at what margin — and feed the wins straight into Bidbook and Fieldbook.

  • Tender calendar and close dates
  • Win/loss and margin history
  • Hand-off to estimating on go decision

How it fits together

From tender to true cost

The suite follows the life of a job in the order you actually work it. Every step hands its numbers to the next, on the same cost codes.

01

Track the tender

Leadbook logs the opportunity, close date and go/no-go.

02

Price the work

Bidbook builds the estimate from your crews, rates and past unit costs.

03

Commit the costs

Orderbook raises POs coded to the job as you buy and rent.

04

Cost the day

Fieldbook records what actually happened, and shows you where you stand.

Why MKTSS

Built by people who price and run civil work

MKT Software Solutions comes out of years of estimating and project management for civil construction companies — earthworks, utilities, roadbuilding. We have sat in the estimator's chair, the PM's truck and the month-end cost meeting, and we built the tools we wished we'd had.

That means the software speaks your language: cost codes, productions, unit rates, crews and equipment hours. Not generic project management dressed up with a hard hat.
