How to Streamline Your Cash Flow Management

Maintaining a healthy cash flow can be a daunting task for construction companies. Long project timelines, delayed payments, and substantial upfront costs make it challenging to manage cash flow successfully. And poor cash flow management often leads to delayed projects, strained relationships with vendors and suppliers, and in the more extreme situations project shut down. Fortunately, your construction company doesn’t have to manage your cash flow alone.  Outpave’s sophisticated finance management platform can help by providing real-time insights, automating payment processes, and quickly generating invoices.

The first step in good cash flow management is understanding where the money is going.  That’s why Outpave’s software provides you with real-time data on how the project budget is being spent. Every card comes with a 1% cash-back reward for every purchase.

Benefits of Outpave Expense Cards

  • Employee Cards: You can issue Outpave expense cards for contractors and general managers. Any expenses on these cards will appear in the Outpave dashboard within a few minutes.
