About Smart Contractor
The designers of SmartContractor software have worked in the construction and software industries for over 30 years. We’ve been through it all, so we know exactly what you’re dealing with. And we work with construction professionals who use SmartContractor every day, to constantly improve and enhance the program to meet your needs. Integrated construction estimating, accounting, and project management software specifically designed for small to medium construction businesses. Integrated software means that you only enter data once, and data entered in one part of the program is available to all other parts of the system. The data that you enter in a job estimate is used in everything that SmartContractor does, so the estimate is the core of the SmartContractor system. This is what we mean when we say that SmartContractor is “integrated” construction estimating software. You enter the data once, and then use it in everything the program does.
