As a contractor, you have one of the toughest jobs around. You must direct your team so that deliverables are produced to specifications, and jobs stay on schedule and within budget.

Whether you are a prime contractor, subcontractor or government agency that is letting out and managing contracts, xpdcontracts is the tool that puts you in charge of this complex web. Accessible from anywhere through an intuitive Web interface, contracts specialists can begin using it right from Day One.
Set up and administer contracts.
xpdcontracts lets you create a contract framework and pull together all the loose ends. Establish a contract and its jobs and tasks, assign job hours and billing rates based on labor categories, designate contract officers and technical representatives, assign teams and managers, and more.
View and report contract data.
 With xpdcontracts, all contract details are at your fingertips. Screen views show all contract data, by customer, by job and by task. And xpdcontracts lets you easily generate reports, including charts that illustrate completion status and budget updates and breakdowns.
