ProjectVIEW ERP vs construction management apps: the short answer
Construction management apps (collaboration, field, document and scheduling tools) each cover one part of the project and connect to a separate accounting ERP. ProjectVIEW ERP is the ERP itself: one database for the BoQ, cost control, procurement, subcontractors, materials, plant, HR and payroll, accounting and the site, with native connectors to Oracle Primavera P6, MS Project and BIM (.ifc). Category tendency only; capabilities vary by product, edition, configuration and integrations. Verify this workflow in the shortlisted system.
What changes when the apps become one system
- One cost structure BoQ items, WBS and cost codes, instead of a mapping between apps.
- Fewer integrations and subscriptions To buy, maintain and reconcile.
- Site data posts directly to cost control Labour, plant, materials and subcontractor progress.
- Unlimited extranet users For suppliers, subcontractors and site staff. Unlimited external users apply to the named supplementary portals and agreed scope in the proposal and subscription terms.
- Keep your scheduling tool Primavera P6 and MS Project stay connected.

FAQ: ProjectVIEW ERP vs construction management apps
Is ProjectVIEW ERP a construction management app?
No. It is a complete ERP for project-based companies. It includes project and site functions, plus procurement, accounting, HR and payroll, so it replaces several separate apps.
Can we keep an app we already use, such as Procore or Aconex?
Yes, if there is a business reason. ProjectVIEW ERP exchanges data through its API. The usual aim is to remove overlapping functions so that cost data has one source.
Do ProjectVIEW ERP site applications work offline?
Yes. The site applications work online and offline, and synchronise with cost control when the connection returns.
Does ProjectVIEW ERP integrate with Primavera P6 and BIM?
Yes. It has native connectors for Oracle Primavera P6 and MS Project, and reads BIM models in .ifc format for a 5D view.
