Job costing maturity assessment
Eight questions. Honest answers. See where the gaps are — and what closing them is worth.
1. Do you know the gross margin of each individual job within 30 days of completion?
2. Are direct labor hours tracked per job, with employer burden loaded in?
3. Do you allocate office/admin overhead to every job using a documented rate?
4. Are materials and subcontractor costs assigned to specific jobs (not lumped)?
5. Do you track change orders as separate billable items with their own cost-revenue profile?
6. Is there a Work-in-Progress (WIP) schedule updated at least monthly for multi-period jobs?
7. Are estimated vs. actual costs compared on every job at completion?
8. Can you produce a job-level P&L for a lender, surety, or buyer on request?
