Business Intelligence for Contractors

You're building great work.
Your numbers should show it.

Most contractors run their business out of their head and their QuickBooks. Ando Systems connects the two — giving you a clear executive dashboard that shows exactly where your money is going, where it's leaking, and what to do about it.

18 days
Average time contractors wait to invoice after job completion — and it's costing you.
$40K+
Typical annual cash flow impact from slow invoicing alone. We find it in the first report.
1 hour
Setup time. You connect QuickBooks, we configure everything, you get your first insight within 7 days.
The Problem

What you don't know is costing you.

You know how to run a job. But most contractors have no clear view of their business health until tax season — and by then, the damage is done.

📋
Cash flow blind spots
Winter slowdowns hit harder than they should because nobody flagged the pattern in time to adjust. You find out when the bank account is thin, not before.
📬
A/R aging silently
Invoices sitting 60+ days out aren't just annoying — they're a line of credit you're extending to clients for free. Most contractors don't know how many they have.
🔁
Repeat business left on the table
Most GCs get less than 25% of revenue from repeat clients. A simple follow-up process changes that number fast — but only if you're tracking it.
What You Get

A dashboard built for how you actually work.

Not a generic accounting report. A live view of your business — connected to QuickBooks, configured around your jobs, and explained in plain English every month.

1
Financial Overview
Revenue, gross margins, cash on hand, and A/R aging — connected directly to QuickBooks and updated automatically. No more waiting for your bookkeeper to tell you where you stand.
2
Job Performance Layer
Revenue by job type, quote-to-close rate, and average job value. See which work is actually profitable and which job types are quietly dragging your margins down.
3
Business Health Metrics
Retention rate, repeat client revenue, and days to invoice. The numbers most contractors never track — but that quietly determine whether you're building a business or just staying busy.
4
Ando Insights — Monthly
Not just data. Every month you get a one-page plain-English summary: what changed, what to watch, and one specific action to take. Written by a real person who knows your business.
