Project profitability and cash control for construction SMEs
From WIP and variation orders to retention and subcontractor costs—get clean books, tighter controls, and visibility into true project margins.
Challenges we understand
Project profitability is unclear due to weak cost coding or inconsistent job costing
Cash flow volatility from milestone billing, retention, and delayed collections
Variation orders and claims not tracked clearly, impacting revenue recognition
Subcontractor and material costs leak due to poor purchase controls and approvals
VAT treatment confusion on progress billing, retentions, and cross-border services
Lack of WIP (work-in-progress) reporting and accurate project status reporting
How Daira helps
Daira sets up construction-ready accounting that separates costs and revenue by project, enabling accurate job costing and margin tracking. We implement a predictable month-end close and produce WIP and project performance views so management can act early when margins slip. We support VAT and Corporate Tax compliance with proper documentation and schedules aligned to project billing, retentions, and subcontractor invoices. We identify cost leakage (materials, rentals, subcontractors) and build a spend-control cadence with clear approval and procurement workflows.
