Metal Fabrication Job Costing and Profit Tracking
Compare estimated and actual fabrication costs to see which jobs, disciplines, and quotes make money.
What the workflow should include
- Capture material, labor, outside work, and overhead.
- Record deposits and payments against the estimate.
- Compare quoted revenue with actual job cost.
A practical shop example
When actual grinding or installation time runs over, the variance becomes visible instead of disappearing into payroll.
Price the work. Protect the margin.
