How does the money come from?"What do you do with the money?"How's the money spent?"It is the most important issue for every engineering consulting company in the process of managing engineering projects.

With the continuous expansion of the business scale of Yongxin and Rui, the original extensive management has been unable to keep up with the pace, and the work efficiency and per capita output value are declining. At the same time, the architecture of the original system is relatively backward and needs to be updated.
Yongxin and Rui tried to hire a third-party company to customize the business scenario, but due to the continuous change of business, the customized products could not meet the demand. In 2019, Yongxin and Rui found that the low** platform is simple to operate, and compared with other customized products, it can customize business processes and fields, and has high flexibility.
Since then, in the past four years, Yongxin Herui has built more than 30 applications such as bid management, bid winning management, operation management, contract management, asset management, full consulting cost calculation, and performance management through the low-level platform, saving nearly 400,000 yuan compared with the customized platform.
1.Quick calculation of the cost of full counseling.
Cost negotiation and bargaining are very important aspects of the construction consulting industry.
When Party A releases a housing construction project, it usually attracts a large number of companies to bid. In order to assess the cost of building the house and avoid the situation that the bidder is higher than the actual cost, Party A entrusts Yongxin and Rui to carry out project cost accounting.
In the past, the marketing staff of Yongxin Herui needed to contact the business department to assist in the calculation of the whole. However, due to the different building heights and engineering complexities of different projects, it takes a lot of time to calculate the cost each time. Excessive waiting time can easily lead to the loss of intending customers.
To this end, Yongxin Herui has built a quick calculation system for the cost of full consultation through the low-quality platform, first entered a large number of basic information of previous cooperative customers, and set the calculation formula of engineering consulting fees according to the document charging standards of the country, provinces and cities.
Employees in the marketing department who go out only need to open the Quick Calculation System on their mobile phones, enter the name of the project, and select the specific professional type to get the basic expenses. At the same time, according to the complexity of the project, elevation and other parameters, the system automatically calculates the detailed amount. Previously, it took a day for the cost to calculate;Now, it only takes a minute to get the exact cost.
In addition, not only supervision consulting, the cost of the full consultation is also applied to the preliminary consultation, design consulting, cost consulting and other all-round consulting services, through the rapid calculation of the project, so that the cost of each project construction is clearer and more transparent, and timely feedback also improves customer satisfaction.
2.Whole process management of the project.
In order to solve the problem that the project progress and project quality are difficult to control, Yongxin Herui realizes online management of the whole process of customer management, contract management, project cost, collection management and performance management through the low-quality platform.
Once the project is awarded, the customer information is entered first. After entry, the system will automatically associate the information with the contract management section, generate a contract ledger, and the process will automatically flow to the project cost section.
So far, Yongxin Herui has accumulated 1,600 customer files and saved more than 3,300 contract ledgers on the low-level platform, helping the company track each customer and contract more efficiently and accurately.
How to ensure the quality of the project?The core is ** review.
When receiving the cost contract task, the project leader will prepare the implementation plan according to the task file, and go to the site to investigate, collect basic data such as building structure, area, floor height, etc., and send it back to the low ** platform for the preparation of working papers, issue a project report, and start the review process.
Level 1: The project leader checks the program information.
Level 2: The project director, regional director, and deputy general manager of the business department will conduct the review, focusing on whether the key data such as the amount submitted for review, the amount of the verification point, and the nuclear inspection rate are correct
After the audit is passed, the data will be synchronized with the external construction unit, the amount and cost of materials will be reviewed, and the intermediate difference will be communicated and checkedWhen the review record is passed, summarize the pricing, measurement or other related typical problems, and hold a meeting to discuss and solve.
Section: The process will be assigned to the technical department for a final review, after which a formal project report will be generated and submitted to the client. When the customer confirms the report, the process will automatically go to financial collection and performance accounting.
Through different levels of approval and information review, it helps to find and correct potential problems and defects in a timely manner, and ensure the integrity of project reports and the accuracy of data. This ensures the quality of the project and ensures that all phases are carried out as planned.
3.Automate performance management.
In the past, Yongxin Herui needed to spend 20,000 yuan a year to buy a performance management software to manage the performance of the whole company. However, since the system did not quite meet the company's personalized performance management needs, it was decided to abandon it and opt for a low** platform.
Yongxin Herui has built a performance management system through a low** platform and defined different levels of evaluation criteria, among which the coefficient of B+ level is 1.
Considering that the leadership needs to evaluate a large number of employees, and the performance level of the vast majority of employees is B+, Yongxin and Rui set B+ as the default level. Leaders only need to rate the high-performing A-level employees and the low-performing C- and D-level employees.
When the assessment deadline is reached, the employees who have obtained a B+ grade will automatically pass the assessment, thus saving a lot of assessment time.
In addition, Yongxin Herui stipulates that the proportion of employees at grade A and above shall not exceed 10%. Through the business rule setting of the low-level platform, when the leader evaluates and scores the employees, the system will automatically calculate the proportion of A-level employees. Once the proportion exceeds 10%, an early warning reminder will be automatically issued, which greatly saves HR time and improves work efficiency.
1.Standardized work processes.
More than 30 enterprise applications have been built through the low-level platform, and various business approvals have been standardized and promoted to 16 subsidiaries. Each step is set up with corresponding templates and detailed operation manuals for new employees to refer to to help them quickly get started with business.
2.Customer satisfaction continues to improve.
Through the low-level platform, a full range of consulting services such as pre-consultation, design consulting, cost consulting, and establishment consulting are managed online, so that the billing process is standardized. The staff of the marketing department can quickly and accurately provide customers with cost estimates, which helps customers to quickly compare prices and provide strong support for subsequent negotiations with the construction party.
3.Project progress & quality are both grasped.
The first-class review system is implemented in the project management approval process, and through different levels of approval and information review, it helps to find and correct potential problems and defects in a timely manner, which not only ensures the quality of the project, but also ensures that all stages can be carried out as planned.
