Most contractors are aware of the fine line that exists between making money and losing money on the equipment their company owns. That’s why smart construction organizations rely on equipment management software that helps them track every detail of usage and maintenance of the equipment on their jobsites.
Viewpoint’s Equipment Management, a key component of Vista™ by Viewpoint, was created to deliver equipment revenue and cost information to all profit centers from a single point of entry. Vista Equipment Management features:
- Seamless integration with Payroll, Purchase Order, Inventory, Job Cost, Job Billing, and General Ledger.

- A maintenance and work order sub-system for contractors with in- house maintenance and repair.
Sanford Contractors, located in Sanford, North Carolina made the switch to Vista to implement a software suite that could keep up with their business growth and had an equipment solution in place. Sanford controller, Barbara Angell explained, “We were looking for a partner that our company could grow with and we wanted something that would help with our equipment management.” She was pleased to find that Vista’s feature-rich Equipment Management module easily tracks location, equipment transfers, detailed cost and revenue reporting.
