General Contractor Software That Keeps Every Contract Straight

You carry the contract, the subs and the risk. Sitewise tracks all three: what you agreed to build, what it is actually costing, what you have certified to each sub, and what you have billed the client against the revised contract value.

Pre-configured for general contracting, so the catalog, workflows and terminology arrive ready. You are inside a working system in minutes.

  • Retention
  • Change orders
  • Job costing

Certify subs and hold retention correctly

Issue interim payment certificates against each subcontractor's work. Retention is calculated on the period in front of you rather than smeared across the whole contract, released when you decide, and tracked in both directions so you always know what you are holding and what is being held from you.

Certify subs and hold retention correctly

Change orders that move the contract value

A signed change order revises the contract, and the revised value is what you bill against from that moment. No more invoicing against a number from the original signature and reconciling the difference later.

Change orders that move the contract value

Know the margin before closeout

Labor from approved timesheets, materials from purchase orders and vendor bills, all landing against the budget as it happens. A line running hot raises an alert while you can still do something about it.

What You Get

Built For How General Contractors Actually Work

Subcontractor certificates

Interim payment certificates with retention held and released on both sides, and full history per sub.

Progress billing

Invoice against contract value as work completes, with customer retainage held and released on your terms.

Requisition to vendor bill

A crew raises a requisition, it becomes a purchase order, the vendor bill matches back. Committed cost, not surprise cost.

Documents on the job

Drawings, permits and photos attached to the project they belong to, reachable from the field.

Contractors Who Stopped Losing Money

Real results from contractors who switched from spreadsheets, ServiceTitan, and the tool juggling chaos.

“Live in 3 days, not 3 months”

We almost went with ServiceTitan but the $50K implementation and year-long timeline killed it. Sitewise had us running in a week.

“Mobile app that actually works”

My guys work in basements all day. Every other app failed down there. Sitewise works offline and syncs the moment they surface. Game changer.

“Finally know which jobs are profitable”

Sitewise showed us we were underwater on 3 of our 'best' customers. We adjusted pricing and increased margins 23% in six months.

“Replaced 5 systems with one”

QuickBooks, Excel, paper time tickets and a CRM. Now it's just Sitewise. Saving 15 hours a week on admin alone.

Sarah JohnsonOffice Manager, Comfort Zone HVAC
“QuickBooks sync that doesn't break”

Our old software's sync failed constantly. Sitewise just works. Invoices flow to QuickBooks automatically.

“Worth every penny”

One flat plan against what we were quoted for ServiceTitan? Easy decision. And the support team actually understands contracting.

Questions About Sitewise For General Contractors

How does retention work for subcontractors?

Set the retention percentage on the contract. Each interim payment certificate calculates it on that period's certified work, and releases are recorded separately so the held balance is always accurate. Customer-side retainage works the same way, so you can see what is held from you and what you are holding.

Can I track change orders against the original contract?

Yes. A change order revises the contract value, and progress invoices bill against the revised figure. You can always see the original value, what changed, and what the contract is worth now.

What do I get for subcontractor management?

Subs live alongside your customers and vendors, with their certificates, retention balance and payment history in one place. Work orders can be assigned out, and documents shared against the job. A dedicated portal where subs log in themselves is on the roadmap.

Does it handle multiple projects at once?

Yes. Every project carries its own cost sheet, contract value and document set, and the dashboard rolls up what needs your attention across all of them.
