Remote PM is a small business service that provides administrative project management for general contractors and subcontractors. All construction projects fall in to two categories of daily operations, CRM, customer relationships management, the people talking to people side of operations, and document flow administration. Remote PM focuses, using QuickBooks subscription accounts, on progress billing invoicing, maintaining the original estimate, generating change-orders as they occur, paying project related bills approved by the company, collecting employee time via the internet and importing subsequent information for payroll generation and reports. All on-going project data is readily available for company management in terms of various detailed job-cost reports that define job trends.
