BESPOKE FINANCIAL & OPS STRATEGY FOR construction & trades
Trusted by Australia’s most ambitious founders.
The Nexist Framework
FINANCIAL STRATEGY FIRST
FINANCE FIRST
We set up true job costing across labour, materials and subcontractors, then forecast cash around your progress claims and retentions. You’ll see which jobs, clients and job types make money, and price the next quote with confidence.
What we fix first
Real-time job profitability
Progress claims & retentions in your cash flow forecast
Materials, stock & yard inventory
OPERATIONS & TECH
Once the numbers are clear, we fix the admin behind them. Quoting, purchase orders, timesheets and variations are mapped and streamlined, so nothing gets lost between the site, the office and the invoice.
We connect your job management, rostering and accounting tools, set up stock tracking for your yard, and write the processes your team can follow without calling you.
Systems we integrate
Xero
Accounting
Zoho
Quotes & job workflow
Dext
Supplier bills & receipts
Deputy
Crew rostering & timesheets
“Systems run the business. People run the systems. You run the vision.”
