What Can Your Job Costing VA Handle?
Offload the tedious data entry of tracking project expenses so you can focus on winning bids and running crews.
Material Receipt Logging
Taking messy field receipts (Home Depot, lumber yards) uploaded to a shared drive and entering them accurately into your job costing spreadsheet or accounting software.
Labor Hour Allocation
Pulling data from your time-tracking apps (TSheets, ClockShark) and properly allocating labor burdens and regular hours to specific project phases.
Subcontractor Invoice Matching
Auditing incoming invoices from subs against original purchase orders and bids to ensure you aren't being overbilled before issuing payouts.
Change Order Management
Updating the master spreadsheet whenever a client approves a change order, ensuring materials and labor for the new scope are billed accurately.
Actuals vs. Estimates (WIP)
Generating weekly Work-In-Progress (WIP) reports so you can visually compare your original estimated budget against the real-time actual spend.
Document Control
Organizing cloud drives (Google Drive, Dropbox) by project address. Filing away permits, insurance certs, lien waivers, and final sign-offs cleanly.
Traditional Freelancers vs. SageDoer
Financial data entry requires absolute accuracy. We provide managed, trained professionals—not independent gig-workers.
