Margin is calculated while the job is open
Earned revenue minus full cost: five words that change how you run a job.

Many companies learn a job’s margin only when it is closed. That is too late to act, and it is why the same mistake repeats on the next job.
One chain, from quote to margin
In CantiVera data is entered once: quote, job, report or plan, hours, costs, analysis. Each link feeds the next without retyping anything.
Full cost, not pay
An hour’s cost is not the pay: there are contributions, travel and surcharges for overtime and holidays. When the system does not know a cost, it says so instead of showing a plausible, wrong margin.
- Fixed price: revenue earned on declared physical progress.
- Hourly: revenue from per-person billing rates.
- Either way, margin visible every week.
