BIS - Builder Information System

BIS - The LEADER in fully integrated, intuitive, scalable and complete accounting, job costing and management software for the construction industry.

CPA Software News: FIVE Star Rating

Recently, in an independent review, BIS software was awarded FIVE stars for construction accounting and job management functionality and capabilities by CPA Software News. This reflects our continual dedication to producing software that exceeds our customers' needs.

Integration

Because BIS is written with Visual Fox Pro, there is no need to purchase a separate reporting system (i.e. Crystal Reports) or a separate database (i.e. Oracle or SQL Server) in order to make your software work. BIS provides an all-inclusive, seamless and reliable solution, which saves our contractors money and their accountant's time.

Though we offer the most advanced construction accounting tool available, BIS is also recognized for its unparalleled ease of use. Upon review of our online demo, clients quickly discover how intuitive and straightforward BIS software is. The familiar Windows interface and well thought out software design allows for a learning curve measured not in days or weeks, but hours!

As your company grows, so does BIS. With three main product lines (Standard, Professional, and Enterprise) tailored to fit the exact size of your business, various add-on modules, company specific report formatting, remote user access, competitive pricing and enhanced security features that are second to none, BIS has an edition that is right for your company’s budget and needs.

The “Designed for Windows” logo means that BIS complies with all of Microsoft's current guidelines for stability, ease of use and product performance. In addition, BIS boasts ODBC compliance, meaning that BIS data can easily be exported or accessed through a variety of programs, such as Access, Crystal Reports, Excel and/or Word - to name a few.

BIS Technical Support is second to none in the industry. We believe that no one knows the software better than the people that write it. With BIS, our clients talk to support personnel that actually write portions of the software applications. Available five days per week by telephone and online.

One of the many features that sets BIS apart from our competitors is our true real-time accounting. All your books, ledgers, job cost, and financials are instantaneously updated. Some competitors claim to have real-time software even though they may actually be using outdated (much slower and more cumbersome) methods of batch processing.
