HD Project Cost Management
Leverage Total Project Visibility
Project Cost Management is a powerful solution platform that engages estimating and progress measurement with real-time integrations for total project oneness. The HD solution embodies Project Cost Management to create more than a plan, instead it makes projects dynamic. Track actual costs and gain total project confidence in cost estimating, productivity management and earned value with HD.
Produce Exceptional Results
The HD solution is a full service Project Cost Management suite that bridges cost modeling with the project schedule to track overall productivity. Built for efficiency, HD is equipped with practical tools that keep your project organized and profitable, simply, reliably, and accurately.
Tap into real-time visibility of actual project facts and figures with HD. Front-line employees can now accurately estimate, manage and accumulate critical performance history to deliver successful projects. Organizations use HD to increase productivity by 300%, increasing cost accuracy, speeding up customer response times, reducing administrative expenses, mitigating risk, and improving profit margins.
Design / Takeoff Integration
The 5D-BIM Server incorporates BIM integration to handle data requirements from leading industry products. Integration is available to support CAD and construction modeling solutions from Bentley Systems, AVEVA, Intergraph and Autodesk.
Connect to Estimating and Cost Libraries
Leverage dynamic integration with Microsoft Excel and estimating data from competitive third party products including HCSS, Bid2Win, US Cost, Timberline, MC2-Ice, and WinEst. Integration with competitive estimating systems provides contractors with the ability to gain the advantages of 5D-BIM and advanced project controls without investing in new estimating software.
Live Scheduling Integration
5D-BIM interoperability provides robust, dynamic real-time, bi-directional integration to leading scheduling systems from Oracle®, Primavera®, and Microsoft® Project. “Oneness” integration to scheduling completes the cycle of converting CAD design data into a production based cost and resource loaded schedule. 5D-BIM eliminates 99% of the labor and time requirements previously required to generate and keep in-sync a cost and resource loaded construction schedule. Bi-directional integration between the cost estimate and schedule provides dynamic cash flow and spend modeling, what-if analysis and multi-year cost escalation modeling. The integration between the estimate, the schedule and Project Controls provides highly accurate, real-time Earned Value Reporting.
Connect to Progress: Field Data Collection, and Timesheets
Track quantities completed and percent complete using simple or complex rules. Collect and store timesheet data from jobsites, while sharing data electronically with accounting systems to eliminate double entry, utilizing standards to collect data from multiple sources. Maintain timesheet standards with labor classifications, and other user defined tags. Import timesheet data from third-party systems or to any accounting system. Record notes for each cost item including assumptions, jobsite observations, and more. Increase communication for issues that include staging and additional information to the field operators. Provides crew based timesheets with pre-defined data streamlining foreman or supervisor completion.
Connect to Finance
Utilize over 35+ financial and ERP systems including Timberline, Viewpoint, JD Edwards, Dexter + Chaney, Computer Guidance Corporation, Oracle®, SAP, and other financial systems.
HD API (Application Programming Interface)
Updating HD with data from your other systems is easy when using the HD API. The HD API (Application Programming Interface) provides an automated method for updating HD with data from other systems to create new records, update existing records, or delete records automatically.
