ECOSIRE Construction Management
The ECOSIRE Construction Management module is the foundation of the ECOSIRE Construction & Contracting Suite. It brings multi-discipline Bills of Quantities, rate analysis (labour, material, equipment, and subcontract), committed-cost job costing, project P&L with cost-to-complete forecasting, an earned-value cockpit (CPI / SPI / VAC), inspection workflows, Gantt-style phase scheduling, and RFI + transmittal registers into Odoo — in a single module that every other pack in the suite builds on.
Install this module first. Every other pack (Billing, Subcontract, Estimation, Field Operations) requires it.
Compatibility: Odoo 17 / 18 / 19 (Community or Enterprise) Price: $899 (one-time) License: LGPL-3 — up to 3 domain activations Category: Industries

What it does
- Multi-discipline BOQ — structured Bills of Quantities organised by discipline and work section, each item carrying a unit rate and quantity.
- Rate analysis — break each BOQ rate down to its components: labour, material, equipment, and subcontract costs, with quantities and unit rates.
- Job costing with committed-cost tracking — records actual costs (purchase orders, vendor bills, timesheets, attendance, stock moves) against the BOQ and flags committed-but-not-yet-invoiced spend so the project never surprises the finance team.
- Project P&L and cost-to-complete — live comparison of budget vs actual vs forecast-to-complete across every cost category.
- Earned-value cockpit — CPI (Cost Performance Index), SPI (Schedule Performance Index), and VAC (Variance at Completion) tiles updated in real time as costs and progress are posted.
- Inspection workflows — define inspection types with checklist templates, raise inspection records against project phases or BOQ items, and record sign-off with date and responsible party.
- Phase scheduling (Gantt) — define project phases with planned start/end dates and sequence dependencies; a Gantt view tracks actual vs planned progress.
- RFI register — raise, route, and close Requests for Information (RFI) with a full correspondence trail and due-date tracking.
- Transmittal register — log document transmittals (drawings, specifications, submittals) with revision tracking and recipient acknowledgement.
- Multi-company and analytic integration — each project maps to an Odoo analytic account; all cost postings flow through the standard analytic framework.
