Jobpac Overview and Core Concepts
Jobpac brings project and financial information together in one system so your teams can work with consistent, accurate data. This article introduces the core concepts that Jobpac is built on and explains how its project and accounting modules work together across your business.
What Jobpac covers
Jobpac supports the operational and financial needs of construction and engineering businesses, including:
- commercial, industrial and civil construction
- engineering and infrastructure projects
- medium to large residential building
- subcontracting and specialist trades
Key project and financial activities come together in one system, including:
- Project costing and WIP control – track budgets, commitments and work in progress.
- Forecasting and budgeting – manage current budgets and future projections.
- Contract variations and head contract claims – keep scope changes, claims and revenue aligned.
- Cash flow and revenue management – see when work will bill and when payments fall due.
- Core accounting and compliance reporting – general ledger, tax and statutory reporting.

Why this matters
With project and accounting information in one place, Jobpac gives teams a shared, aligned view of:
- Project performance – budgets, costs, revenue and margin.
- Commitments and expenditure – purchase orders, subcontracts and actual costs.
- How project activity flows into the general ledger – keeping your P&L and project reporting consistent.
This helps you plan more accurately, control costs more tightly and make confident decisions across your projects and business.
