Cuddy Group have utilised Pegasus CIS,software solution specifically designed for the construction and contracting industries, in order to manage contracts and costs ease
Keeping you on the level
When you consider that the average construction project suffers 150% cost overruns and completes more than 175% late, there’s clearly a great need for software that can help you to deliver projects on time and within budget – and transform your profitability.
Pegasus CIS is a software solution specifically designed for the construction and contracting industries. Not only will it make you fully compliant with the taxman, it’ll also bring astonishing efficiencies to your contract management.
Pegasus CIS recognises the complex business requirements of the construction sector, offering an unparalleled level of management control over contracts and subcontractors. It integrates with Opera 3, Opera II, Sage 50 and Sage 200.
Overview
Cuddy are specialists in complex fields such as integrated decommissioning, demolition, land remediation, environmental risk assessment, asbestos management, environmental and civil engineering services, and can provide complete land regeneration working with UK and international clients.
Cuddy had no interaction between existing systems and no specialist construction package, which made the accessing of data, contracts, job costings and generating reports very time consuming.
Their system was unable to deal with retentions, applications for payment and certificates for payment. All the business dealings with sub-contractors were kept on spreadsheets which created duplications and increased the workload.
Solution
CSG recommended Pegasus CIS. The implementation of CIS would allow Cuddy to grow the system within the organisation, where additional users, companies and applications could be added via a software license. The new software made the job performance monitoring much quicker. It also improved the visibility of the contracts costs and the payments. The new system ensures that all sub-contractor management is in one place, from application, payments, production of CIS Tax Returns and Sub Contractor Vouchers. The Pegasus CIS system is an integral application for the organisation and has delivered return on the investment.
Benefits
In four years since the implementation, Cuddy saw the steady business growth, improved productivity and increased efficiency. Improvements to the accounts system have freed individuals to deal with the extra volume of work as a direct result of the increase in turnover.
The Pegasus investment is proactively supported by CSG’s fully accredited and trained support staff to ensure that it continues delivering value for Cuddy.
“We required a flexible system that could cope with the way the construction industry works and manage applications for payments, retentions, purchasing for jobs, subcontractors, special VAT scheme, and the various CIS taxation schemes. We are very happy with Pegasus CIS and Opera 3 as its suits our needs. CSG managed the implementation and have a recently upgraded our systems to the SQL software version. Whenever there is a query, CSG’s team are there to provide support as required. We would recommend CSG to any company thinking of implementing business critical software.” Aled Davies, Management Accountant, Cuddy Group
