How Teams Use ProStack

See how construction and field service organizations use ProStack tools to solve real operational challenges on Acumatica.

Use Case 1

HVAC Contractors

A mid-size HVAC company running 40+ technicians struggled with inconsistent pricing on T&M calls, delayed visibility into job profitability, and crew scheduling across 12 active commercial projects.

FS ProFS Pro
  • Tiered markup engine eliminated manual repricing across 200+ monthly service orders
  • Real-time margin dashboards gave management visibility before invoicing
  • One-click Extras toggle reduced scope leakage on fixed-fee maintenance contracts
PM ProPM Pro
  • Visual crew scheduler replaced whiteboard planning for installation crews
  • Budget awareness at the task level caught over-allocated projects early
  • Six-month forecasting view improved hiring and subcontractor planning
Use Case 2

Electrical Contractors

A growing electrical contractor managing commercial and industrial projects needed better coordination between project managers scheduling crews and dispatchers assigning service calls, all while tracking employee time off and certifications.

PM ProPM Pro
  • Drag-and-drop scheduling gave project managers real-time control over crew assignments
  • Cross-project workforce sharing reduced idle time between jobs
  • Time activity history helped supervisors identify missing time entries
HR ProHR Pro
  • Employee absences automatically reflected on the PM Pro scheduling board
  • Configurable leave policies replaced spreadsheet-based PTO tracking
  • Automated payroll sync eliminated manual time-off entry
Use Case 3

General Contractors

A general contractor running 20+ simultaneous projects across multiple branches had no centralized view of workforce allocation. Project managers competed for the same crews, and finance lacked real-time budget visibility.

PM ProPM Pro
  • Operations leadership gained a single view of all crew assignments across projects
  • Branch and department filtering let regional managers focus on their teams
  • Color-coded budget indicators surfaced at-risk projects before cost overruns
FS ProFS Pro
  • Service work tied to projects was priced consistently with automated markup
  • Field-captured costs flowed back into project budgets in real time
  • Site-first workflow standardized call intake for warranty and punch-list work
Use Case 4

Mechanical Service Providers

A mechanical services firm with 60 employees needed to modernize their HR processes. Time-off requests went through email, payroll adjustments were manual, and dispatchers had no visibility into who was actually available.

HR ProHR Pro
  • Interactive absence calendar replaced email-based time-off requests
  • Multi-level approval workflows routed requests through the correct managers
  • Approved absences auto-populated payroll time activities, eliminating manual entry
FS ProFS Pro
  • Technician availability on the dispatch board updated automatically from HR Pro
  • Reduced scheduling conflicts and last-minute crew changes
  • Consistent fixed-fee execution improved margins on service agreements
