According to Jobpac CEO, Steve Ironside, Release 8 has delivered over 250 enhancements and additions to core business modules, all in direct response to consultation with industry customers.

“Our customers have told us what they need to remain competitive, cost focused and compliant in the current market. Jobpac Release 8 comprehensively delivers,” said Mr. Ironside.  “Jobpac will present brilliantly on tablets, which are becoming the out-of-office productivity tool of choice, industry wide. Reporting and analytics have improved visibility of company and project information and we now have solutions on board that specifically address the needs of civil contractors.”

Enhancements have already been completed to core business modules such as procurement, project cost control, business forecasting, accounting, property and asset management as well as HR and payroll. The new Release 8 platform also means it will be much faster for Jobpac to innovate and go to market with new and enhanced modules, features and mobile functions.

“The improvements and addition of new modules and mobility all ensures Jobpac is positioned to compete very aggressively as the market leading software solution for ANZ construction companies,” Mr Ironside concludes.

Jobpac is widely utilised in the construction sector by commercial and civil contractors and subcontractors giving customers powerful management features for workflow, cash flow, forecasting, time phased planning, business intelligence, analytics and document management. Jobpac has been SaaS available for over five years as well as being licenced as an on-premise solution.
