CrewCost, a new accounting software program launched on Tuesday, is being touted by the company as “designed for contractors by contractors”; the program and eponymously named firm is from the founder of Esticom, a cloud-based takeoff and estimating application since acquired by Procore.

In a July 16 news release, CrewCost pointed out that the domestic construction industry is ‘dominated’ by small and medium-sized businesses that “often lack the financial management tools necessary for long-term survival.” 

“With billion-dollar corporations controlling the vast majority of construction revenue, we want to help level the financial playing field for the small and medium-sized contractors who build our homes, schools, and hospitals,” said Chris Lee, CEO and founder of CrewCost. 

“CrewCost creates modern, easy-to-use construction accounting and financial management products accessible and affordable for contractors of all sizes,” he added.

The company described CrewCost as “…construction accounting software integrating job costing and time tracking in a simple, powerful platform.” The program can manage and track committed costs, change orders, retainage, and progress billings. 

Employees and subcontractors can also track and submit their time on the CrewCost apps for Android and iOS.
