The whole commercial picture on one screen. Contract sum, what is certified, what you are owed, retention, what you have spent and the profit, with the next thing to do spelled out.
Won, lost and out to tender, your hit rate, and what you have allowed against what you have spent, across the whole book. Set a period and it all reworks.
Set the percentage complete on each item and the portal does the rest. Retention off, VAT on, previously certified taken away, all worked out as you go.

| Substructure | 48,000 | 100% | 0 |

| Roof | 36,200 | 45% | 16,290 |
| External walls | 54,000 | 30% | 16,200 |
Additions and omissions kept apart, priced on your rates. Only an approved variation moves the contract sum, so the figure you quote is the figure that stands.

|---|---|---|---|
| VO-01 | Upgrade to steel beam at grid B | Approved | +4,250 |
| VO-02 | Omit rear canopy | Approved | -3,100 |

| VO-04 | Change to roof covering | Pending | +5,400 |
What you allowed against what you have spent, on labour, materials and subbies. You see the margin holding or slipping while there is still time to do something about it.
Certify each subcontractor the same way you value your own work. Retention off, VAT on, what they have had and what is left, per trade, on one screen.
The contract sum adjusted for every approved variation, then everything already paid taken off, retention released, and any deposit or advance credited back. Nothing counted twice.
Under your own branding, straight from the job. Print one or save it as a PDF. The figures come from the workbook, so there is nothing to type up and nothing to get wrong.
Send it to the architect straight from the job, with the date you need an answer by. A late reply is marked, so if it costs you time or money the record is already there.
The estimate is where it starts. Once you win the job, everything above runs on the same numbers, priced to NRM2, on your rates, from the first valuation to the final account.
