Most ERP systems promise control. However, few deliver it where it truly counts — on site, in real time, at the cost and schedule intersection.
ProjectVIEW ERP, developed by DANAOS Projects, is a purpose-built cost control ERP software for construction projects. It also serves other project-based industries, such as shipbuilding, offshore engineering, mining, and project-based manufacturing.
The Core Differentiator
ProjectVIEW ERP benchmarks every process against two non-negotiables:
- #Time, defined by the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
- #Cost, derived from the Bill of Quantities (BoQ)
As a result, this unique correlation ties every transaction, activity, and decision to measurable, project-specific metrics.
As projects unfold, the system continuously monitors real-time execution and logs deviations. It then dynamically re-aligns derailed processes before they escalate. Together, these steps create what we call Quantum Cost Control.
Unlike traditional ERPs that report history, ProjectVIEW ERP predicts and prevents loss.
How It Works — Industry Examples
🏗 Construction & Infrastructure
In large-scale infrastructure or EPC projects, cost slippage often starts invisibly. For example, it can start with delayed subcontractor approvals, misaligned procurement, or late site reports.
To catch it early, ProjectVIEW ERP connects the BoQ, WBS, and cost codes across tendering, procurement, and site execution.
- When concrete volumes exceed budgeted quantities, the system flags variance instantly.
- When subcontractor rates differ from tendered cost recipes, it triggers alerts before anyone certifies the invoice.
- When project progress lags behind schedule, the system updates cash-flow and earned-value dashboards in real time.
In short, this is not post-facto accounting. It’s continuous control.
⚙️ Project-Based Manufacturing
Manufacturers of pre-engineered buildings, steel structures, MEP assemblies, and off-site fabricated elements face a unique challenge. They must track profitability per order or per BoQ line, not by ledger account.
To solve this, ProjectVIEW ERP bridges BoQ-to-Shopfloor operations:
- The system generates dynamic bills of materials directly from design or BIM models.
- It also logs labor, material, and machine costs per fabrication order.
- Then, variations in design automatically adjust procurement forecasts and production cost baselines.
As a result, you get full traceability from drawing revision to delivered component — and a live margin for every order.
⚓ Shipbuilding & Ship Repair
Shipyards juggle thousands of work orders, specialized subcontractors, and classification-society compliance. To manage this, ProjectVIEW ERP provides a unified BoQ-WBS-Cost framework for long-term builds and fast-turnaround repairs.
- As steel cutting begins, the system tracks resource consumption per hull block.
- Next, it compares outfitting costs to estimates per compartment.
- In addition, it links certificates, inspections, and client variations directly to cost impact.
By integrating planning (Primavera), BIM/3D (e.g., AVEVA, Tekla), and procurement, ProjectVIEW ERP transforms the yard into a real-time digital twin. As a result, profitability becomes measurable per vessel.
⛏ Mining & Quarrying
In mining, every ton matters. For this reason, ProjectVIEW ERP consolidates operational data from multiple sites. It tracks cost per ton, equipment productivity, and fuel consumption.
- The system automatically costs maintenance and downtime per asset.
- It also ties drilling, hauling, and crushing activities to BoQ elements and work packages.
- In addition, it logs ESG and safety data alongside cost and performance indicators.
As a result, headquarters gains instant visibility across all sites. This enables decisions based on real-time operational economics, not end-of-month summaries.
Why It Matters
Across all these industries, ProjectVIEW ERP functions as the digital nervous system of the enterprise. It unites finance, engineering, operations, and management under one truth.
It doesn’t just record cost; it controls it.
By bridging BoQ (what you planned), WBS (what you scheduled), and Actuals (what you executed), it delivers project-based cost control. The system detects every deviation early, so teams can correct it fast.
Ready for the Next Generation of ERP?
For organizations managing complex, high-value, project-driven operations, ProjectVIEW ERP becomes the strategic command center. It orchestrates cost, schedule, and performance.
If your current ERP only shows what went wrong last month, it’s time to move to one that prevents it.
