Construction companies face three primary visibility challenges in predicting the timing of job margin: Understanding how work backlog translates into margin, determining if the project is behind in dollars, and having forward visibility in how gross margin will end up for the year. Most construction companies know their work backlog and do not know when exactly it will be earned. To help businesses overcome these obstacles, S-Curve forecasting is a powerful tool that provides margin visibility and timing.
