 Basic Builder® "This is a straight forward package that is very user friendly." To hear more CDCI client testimonials on BasicBuilder, click here Finally, there is a construction software package that is easy to learn, simple to use and powerful enough to manage the entire business. This package has been a favorite of construction professionals since its introduction in 1984. It fits small and medium contractors who seek control without information overload. Its clear and eye pleasing reports say it much better than any ad or brochure: "I am easy and I am useful!" Judge for yourself the enormous amount of power you get in a simple and hard working Basic Builder® package: Full integration From invoice entry to job budgeting to financial statements to customer time and material billing, a single entry does it all. Easily expandable Basic Builder® lets you start with the core modules of Job Cost, Accounts Payable and General Ledger.
Easy to Learn, Simple to Use Point and click and you're in. It's that easy. The graphic interface in Basic Builder® is as beautiful as it is practical. "Cyber surfers", those who are more experienced in the ways of the Internet and the World Wide Web, will recognize the advances built into Basic Builder Windows immediately. The icons and the hot spots are similar to those used on the most advanced web site. The point and click interface and the drag and drop capability makes this so easy to begin and such a snap to master, that even less experienced computer users will become confirmed "Basic Builder builders" in no time. Our best estimate is one day, max. Many will get where they want to be in much less time. "Easy" is the operative word with Basic Builder®. The easier a program is to use, the more you'll use it and the more you'll get out of it! Learning Companion Documentation Straightforward, step-by-step instructional manuals lead you through setup and normal operation. The manuals are rich in example and screen captures to clearly illustrate daily and monthly procedures. You can learn at your own pace without the requirement to know accounting conventions. If you don't know a debit from a credit, you will be at home with this system. Once setup, the general ledger account numbers auto-fill in most entries. You charge the invoices and payroll to jobs and the general ledger account numbers auto-fill. It is the simple things that make life easier: an automatic backup prior to posting, fast restore when required, a calculator button on entry menus to check math and on and on. The more you look at Basic Builder®, the more you will be convinced that learning the program is a fun experience. GAAP With Full Audit Trails Generally accepted accounting procedures are followed throughout the system. It is an auditor's dream without being a bookkeeping nightmare. What the auditor needs is already there without effort; it is a by-product of the system. Posting detail is kept by month and can be printed or exported to spreadsheet for use by your CPA. You don't even need to know how it got there. Open System Basic Builder® was developed with industry standard tools (Microsoft Visual Basic) and data bases (Microsoft Access) so that you can be assured of compliance with standards. Third party developers and client IT personnel have extracted and fed data to Basic Builder® from a variety of custom applications. We feel that the more you can use your data the better you will like our software.  Export to Common Formats Every report can be sent to a word processing or spreadsheet file (Excel, Word, Lotus, etc). You can then modify the report or data to suit you. Customize Reports with Crystal The system uses Crystal Reports by Seagate to produce all reports. Clients who purchase the Crystal software package can modify the reports to fit their needs. It does take an experienced technical person to make these types of changes. CDCI offers this as a service if your company requires report modification. Internet Reporting Considered by modern business authorities as the required tool for profit in the near future, the Internet is an integral part of the growth path for Basic Builder®. Part of the project management collaborative solution, WIPNet allows you to access your Basic Builder® data (with proper security clearance) via reports on the Internet.
