Who it is for

Contractors and tradespeople who want to know which jobs actually make money before the next bid.

Not the right fit if

You already use job-costing or estimating software, or you need a bidding tool rather than tracking after the job starts.

Why it is different

- Margin is shown per job, not just for the whole business.
- Flags appear when costs near the contract or margin falls below your target.
- A filled example with three jobs and a blank copy.

What is inside

- **Setup.** Your target margin and the point where a job's costs get a warning flag.
- **Jobs.** One row per job: contract price and approved change orders.
- **Costs.** Labor, materials, subcontractors, equipment, permits and other, tagged to a job.
- **Invoices.** What you billed and what has been paid, per job.
- **Job summary.** Margin, cost mix, billed, paid and owed for every job, with flags.
