How Can Commercial Contractors Leverage Beacon PRO+?
With Beacon PRO+ in your back pocket, you'll have access to a variety of tools and features you can use to level up your business.
Ordering and Tracking Supplies
Beacon contractors can rely on Beacon PRO+ to place orders from the jobsite, the office or from home, from any device at any time. Your favorite Beacon products are available for online purchase, and deliveries can be scheduled directly to the jobsite. Beacon PRO+ users can track deliveries, pay bills online, save their order history and reorder materials. You can create an order template for your standard orders, so you don't have to spend time picking and choosing materials for similar jobs.
Automating Estimates
Beacon contractors who have Beacon PRO+ have integrated access to EagleView, an aerial measurement service that gives a visualization of a project, and The EDGE® Estimator, a commercial estimating software that provides an end-to-end automated solution for both takeoff and estimating through the project. Similarly, SumoQuote connects with Beacon PRO+ to give contractors access to live material pricing and quickly generate and send orders from anywhere.
Project Management
Beacon PRO+ includes the top project management platform, JobNimbus. JobNimbus lets contractors manage contacts, jobs, tasks and documents. The Beacon PRO+ partnership also allows users access to unique features including integrated scheduling capability, location-based supply availability, real-time pricing and direct ordering. Another option is Acculynx, an all-in-one management software purpose-built for roofing and exterior services. Acculynx also integrates with Beacon PRO+.
Promotion Tracking
Beacon PRO+ digital suite includes promotion tracking, making it easier for contractors to keep track of manufacturer promotions, view projected rebates and see when they are on their way back to you, keeping them all organized in one place.
Take Your Commercial Roofing Business to the Next Level
Increased operating costs and competition in the commercial roofing and commercial roof repair markets make it imperative that contractors maximize productivity and take advantage of new business technologies that will push them to the front of the pack. Having Beacon PRO+ in your toolkit can help get you there.
