Stop Chasing Month-End: New Tools to Reclaim Your Cash Flow

Linarc April Release: Fresh Features, Fewer Headaches

Spring brings new beginnings: to keep up with the complex, always-changing and challenging environment of the construction jobsite. Which is why we focus on continuously developing enhancements and features that drive efficiency, improve accuracy, and precisely align financials, timelines, visibility, and dynamic integrations.

We know how chaotic the end of the month can be: rushing to reconcile costs with budgets, complete billing, meet project milestones, and maintain (accurate) visibility. Which is why we worked to create features and tools that give you back genuine control, transparency, and speed over your projects and cash flow.  

Now you can draft billing applications instantly as milestones are hit with Progressive Pay Apps, enabling quick final batch submission and faster payments. Easy Retainage Claim recovers withheld funds by simply adjusting a billing percentage to calculate the precise release. Flexible Budget Adjustments ensure financial agility by enabling the seamless reallocation of surplus funds without difficult change orders that delay work.

To mitigate project inefficiency caused by data fragmentation and manual input, we established a singular, authoritative source of seamless truth with our Bidirectional Sync with Google Drive and easy integration with QuickBooks Online.

The Bidirectional Sync automatically aligns Linarc and drive project folders, guaranteeing universal file access and secure partner collaboration, no more manual alignment headaches. Plus, the QuickBooks Integration centralizes financial management with continuous, automated ledger syncs, giving you instant, accurate project cost tracking for smarter, faster financial decisions.

We are committed to UI/UX improvements and community engagement. Join us at the CMAA PNW Conference on April 17th in Seattle, WA, and register for our April Webinar on the current state of Construction Technology.
