All-In-One Construction Accounting Software

Payroll for Construction

Accurate job cost payroll. Zero double entry. Fully construction‑aware.


Construction payroll is complex with union labor, multiple trades, certified payroll, prevailing wage, shift differentials, and detailed job cost allocations. Most payroll systems weren’t designed for that complexity

ProjectPro as your construction payroll software, strengthens your payroll system, not replace it. Instead, it ensures everything payroll depends on is clean, accurate, job costed, and ready for processing, then reconciles the actual payroll results back to the job.

A Full Microsoft Ecosystem That Works Seamlessly With Excel, Power BI, Teams, Outlook, And SharePoint.

The Outcomes Leaders Care About

Your payroll provider calculates pay. ProjectPro ensures payroll data is structured correctly before it ever reaches them.

Union, Shift, and Skill Class Structure

Labor coding and estimating errors risk payroll and margins.

ProjectPro structures labor upfront:

  • Set shift rates and labor classes
  • Apply burden assumptions
  • Ensure accurate job and cost code allocation before payroll

Prevailing Wage & Davis-Bacon Compliance

Errors in wage setup risk certified payroll accuracy.

ProjectPro applies wage decisions upfront:

  • Assign correct wages by project, location, or classification
  • Categorize hours before payroll runs
  • Support accurate certified payroll reporting

Certified Payroll Reporting

Missing or inaccurate data risks compliance and reporting errors.

ProjectPro delivers certified payroll data:

  • Meets payroll provider and agency requirements
  • Ensures accurate, auditable reporting
  • Reduces compliance risk

Flexible Time Capture

Disconnected time entry risks payroll and job cost accuracy.

ProjectPro supports two workflows with third-party payroll:

  • Option 1: Enter Time in ProjectPro
    • Individual or crew timesheets
    • Job-based time allocation

    ProjectPro then sends these coded time entries directly to the payroll provider.

  • Option 2: Enter Time in Payroll

    ProjectPro reconciles time from any payroll and applies true costs to each job.

Executive FAQ

How does ProjectPro lift margin without adding headcount?

By making job setup and controls non‑negotiable (templates, codes, approvals) and exposing live margin, commitments, and cost‑to‑complete, ProjectPro reduces leakage and lets teams act on facts—not stale reports.

What visibility do I get daily, without chasing reports?

Role‑based, drillable dashboards for job margin, WIP position (with under/over‑billing insidethe WIP/revenue process), backlog, AR risk, retainage, and cash outlook—shareable via Excel/Power BI/Teams.

How does this reduce operational risk during growth?

Standardized processes and commitment discipline scale across entities and regions. You gain consistent execution, cleaner audits, and predictable results—no “new division, new playbook” chaos.

What's the IT and change-management burden?

Low. ProjectPro runs on Microsoft with familiar tools and adoption patterns. Your teams use what they already know, and leadership gets faster time‑to‑value with less disruption.
