Summary


This chapter is where it all comes together monetarily. Since you are putting all the other information into the system to provide proper documents and so on (contracts, change documents, Payment Requisitions), it makes sense to take the extra step and be able to provide an incredible amount of information easily and on time without taking three weeks to compile. Management will still have the ability to "hide" money in locations they know they will need, but now they can place that money in those codes with confidence knowing all the other information. It is no longer a scientific guessing game.

In the next chapter we will change gears and look at how drawings are stored and managed for your project.
