At a Glance DANAOS ProjectVIEW ERP offers a fully integrated platform that connects estimation with procurement, subcontractors management, labor productivity, and machinery utilization. It ensures that budgeting reflects real-time market prices and availability. By delivering end-to-end project visibility, ProjectVIEW ERP goes beyond estimation to enable realistic, data-driven cost control—making it the superior choice for construction firms seeking accuracy, efficiency, and profitability in every project. ProjectVIEW vs Estimation Apps General Comparison Intranet Users Licensing Universal, Concurrent Application users – Tiered access rights Universal cross-functional users in ProjectVIEW ERP provide seamless access across all modules based on their roles within each Project and Company within the same Company Group. This flexibility allows users to have varying access rights across Companies and Projects. The model enhances security, versatility, and collaboration, ensuring user universality while maintaining control. Implementation 4-6 months, streamlined Integration with ERP systems is required Out-of-the-box functionalities and implementation by subject-matter experts encourage user engagement and ensure a fast-track implementation, avoiding the delays and complexities associated with extensive customizations and third-party dependencies. Extranet Users Licensing Unlimited Extranet Users Standalone, do not support Extranet Users Unlimited extranet users eliminate per-user licensing costs, enabling seamless collaboration and data capture from Suppliers, Subcontractors, and blue-collar Labor. This flexibility enhances agility, allowing Contractors to scale external interactions without worrying about additional fees or transactional overhead. Lifetime Warranty Yes Multiple support levels A lifetime warranty with source code escrow ensures long-term security, business continuity, and protection against vendor risks. This guarantees ongoing access and usability, even in unforeseen circumstances. Support & Maintenance DANAOS’ subject-matter experts Mostly Partners Network Expert-led support ensures seamless integration, quick and accurate resolution, and operational efficiency. Eliminating reliance on third-party consultants reduces costs and enhances accountability while providing unparalleled industry insights. Customizations Industry Readiness Black-box Systems Client recommendations that require customizations to improve ProjectVIEW ERP are always welcome at no extra cost. A development approach driven by client input and industry best practices ensures continuous evolution, adaptability, and alignment with real-world business needs. Operational Features Critical Points ProjectVIEW ERP Estimation Apps Key Reasons This Matters 01 Capability to forecast and adapt to market changes Facilitates bidding accuracy through what-if/what-is bidding scenarios while allowing pricing forecasts for future cost and risk management No capacity to scrutinize bidding scenarios or forecast materials pricing and Cost to Complete due to the lack of an integrated procurement system and site applications that are associated on the BoQ level General reporting and business analytics dashboards can’t facilitate what-if/what-will bidding scenarios, a feature unique to ProjectVIEW ERP. It enables contractors to simulate budget options, boost bid wins, and maintain data integrity in cost recipes and resource analysis. 02 Complete Suite of Modules and Site Applications Full suite of ERP modules and Construction Site Applications that operate online and offline Lack of an integrated approach under a single source of truth. Lack of a Common Data Environment (CDE) that encapsulates and homogenizes construction data. Integrations are mandatory A comprehensive suite of ERP modules connect Site2Office and Office2Site placing budget and cost recipes on trial ensuring real-time actual vs. cost comparisons, interdepartmental collaboration, improved operational efficiency and productivity both on-site and in the office 03 Trilateral Connectivity Trilateral Connectivity Between BoQ-WBS, Cost Codes to all Department Commercials and Financial departments BoQ-based estimation integrated with BIM and on a case-by-case basis with WBS but lacks further association with cost recipes or cost codes. This decoupled operational approach hinders AI data readiness. Seamless connectivity between BoQ, WBS, and Cost Codes ensures real-time alignment across operational, commercial, and financial departments, enabling precise cost tracking and budget control. This integration eliminates discrepancies, enhances decision-making, and improves project profitability by providing a single source of truth for all stakeholders TERNA Case Study Absence of BoQ and WBS integration in SAP creates inefficiencies and ambiguity in cost control and project performance. Without seamless alignment between Site Item Requests (SIR), Resources baseline and Warehouse Inventory Stocks, Supply Chain Operations, and Subcontractor management, become a challenge. Additionally, the lack of multi-dimensional unit association—such as reinforced concrete in cubic meters, cement in bags, or steel in tonnage—leads to procurement inconsistencies and supply bottlenecks. DANAOS ProjectVIEW ERP bridges these gaps, delivering a fully integrated solution that ensures precise material tracking, streamlined supplier coordination, and real-time cost control—empowering your projects with efficiency and accuracy.

It lacks the tendering process crucial for establishing an accurate baseline according to the Bill of Quantities (BoQ). This deficiency leads to inconsistencies between effort-driven tasks, time-constrained activities, and it overlooks resources allocation based on cost recipes. Oracle Fusion’s approach to cost management depends on scheduling and is decoupled from site operations, limiting effective procurement, cost control and labor productivity and essentially reducing the platform to an accounting and reporting tool. DANAOS ProjectVIEW ERP offers a fully integrated platform specifically designed for construction professionals. It seamlessly links all office and on-site activities, providing a centralized hub for effective project performance management. With robust tendering capabilities, precise cost analyses, optimized resource management, and streamlined financial controls. See how others have achieved success.
