Profit Engine

Construction cash flow software

Construction cash flow software that shows your money weeks ahead

Payroll on Friday, a late payer on Monday, a retention you had forgotten about. For UK contractors, cash flow is often the real reason for stress – even when the order book is full. Profit Engine builds a live cash flow forecast for the whole company, automatically, from your jobs.

A forecast that builds itself

Every accepted quote comes with a payment plan – deposit, stage payments, final payment and any retention. Profit Engine places each payment on your cash flow timeline and sets it against the costs of the job: materials, wages, subcontractors, plant and scaffold.

  • 13-week cash forecast for the whole company
  • Stage payments linked to the work schedule
  • Retentions held and their release dates
  • VAT and CIS amounts visible before they are due

See problems before they happen

Because the forecast updates as jobs move, you see a tight week coming a month in advance. That gives you time to chase a payment, move a start date or delay a purchase – instead of finding out when the bank balance is already red.

Quote in minutes. Profit on every project.

Profit Engine launches on 28 October. The first 100 UK roofing companies get 50% off for 12 months, a free month, and free onboarding.

Frequently asked questions

Why do profitable construction companies run out of cash?
Because costs (wages, materials, scaffold) are paid before clients pay, and retentions and slow payers stretch the gap. A forecast shows the gap in advance so you can manage it.
Does the forecast include retentions?
Yes. Retentions are tracked per job with their expected release dates.
Do I need to enter cash flow data by hand?
No. The forecast is built from your quotes, payment plans and job costs automatically.
