West Coast Build ditched the spreadsheets and cut their billing time from days to hours.

Before Beam, our billing process was entirely manual—managed through countless emails and spreadsheets, with reports pieced together using the limited data we had. Payment applications took days to process, and tracking subcontractor billing, retention, and lien waivers was cumbersome and time-consuming.

Beam has massively sped up and simplified our billing process for us and our subcontractors. The super intuitive interface lets us easily manage our entire workflow, from awarding subcontracts and managing change orders to processing final retention payments. Our subcontractors submit all billing requests through Beam, which automatically tracks against their contracts and change orders, calculates and applies retention, and handles the entire lien waiver process. We can then send payments directly through the platform, eliminating the need to manually write and send paper checks.

The QuickBooks Online integration is a game-changer for us. Everything we do in Beam automatically syncs with QuickBooks, saving us hours of manual bookkeeping work.

What once took days now takes just a couple of hours.

One of our painting subcontractors recently called me and said, “In 25 years of doing this, your platform is my favorite for submitting and receiving payments! It's the easiest platform I've ever used with any GC!”
