🏢 For Construction Companies & Contractors

Full project lifecycle management

From budget planning to client handover — ErbanX covers every stage of construction project management, built specifically for Nigeria.

🏗️

Project Management

Create projects: estate, commercial, single building, renovation, infrastructure

Budget total, start/end dates, location, priority, and currency settings

Gantt chart with task dependencies, critical path analysis, and baseline tracking

Phase-grouped schedule with delay logging (weather, materials, rework, etc.)

Tasks with assignees, phases, priority, and photo completion evidence

Post daily progress updates with photos, videos, and documents

Assign a Project Manager per project — role-based action gating (only PM can create tasks, milestones, etc.)

Scheduled inspections with checklist, Pass/Fail result, photo evidence, and activity feed post

Automatic rework delay logged when an inspection fails on a linked task

Document vault for drawings, contracts, and specifications

Project health indicator: On Track / At Risk / Off Track

Client-facing portal — selective visibility, no internal data exposed

💰

Budget Management

Create reusable BOQ plans — standalone templates not tied to any project

BOQ line items by stage: Substructure, Superstructure, Finishes, Services, External Works, Preliminaries

Per-item: description, quantity, unit (m², m, kg, bags, etc.), rate, total

Material breakdown per BOQ with labour percentage per section — automatically calculates labour cost

Export BOQ and material estimates as PDF

Each project gets its own isolated budget — mark BOQ items as purchased with actual amount captured

Ad-hoc expenses recorded separately from BOQ within each project

Automatic cost-per-m² calculation from total area input

Configurable contingency percentage

Purchasing in one project never affects the BOQ template or any other project

📊
