TenSoR Features

Small-works contract management tool allowing schedule-of-rates based bills of quantity to be fully specified, contracts awarded through tender comparison report, and works followed through valuation stages to final account. By highlighting best pre-tendered prices it is a smooth process to identify the most appropriate contractor for a job - thus making the tender process unnecessary.
Tensor is easy to use and flexible - any situation can be dealt with simply.

Developed for a UK City Council, direct savings of over £40,000 were made on the first year's contracts alone by means of the pre-tendering process. It enabled unforeseen works costs to be reduced after pre-tendered prices were compared with a submitted bill - a far more reasonable compromise cost was reached.

But money saving isn't the only aspect that pleased the council officers. We work closely with our software users to meet their requirements, so the benefits are ongoing - time spent on job preparation is considerably reduced - giving the knock-on benefit of increased staff productivity and job satisfaction!

Who it is for

It can be used by clients, contractors and sub-contractors.

Engineers, surveyors, administrators - all will find the straightforward presentation, and overview and analysis, provides a reliable base. Bill of quantity creation and contract management becomes transparent and cost effective.
