Case Study: Mid-State Paving & Excavation achieves real-time job costing, faster bids, and streamlined payroll with Viewpoint ProContractor

Mid-State Paving & Excavation Replaces Generic Accounting Software and Manual Processes with ProContractor for Complete Control

Mid-State Paving & Excavation, a $3 million central Pennsylvania contractor founded in 1999, expanded from paving into site work but faced growing competition, tighter bids, and fragmented back-office systems. Operating with QuickBooks, a separate payroll package, spreadsheets and estimating tools, the roughly 40-person firm dealt with time-consuming, error-prone processes and needed better job-cost visibility and payroll compliance for public works.

They implemented ProContractor by Viewpoint as an end-to-end solution for estimating, job costing and payroll (including Davis-Bacon reporting), eliminating duplicate data entry and providing real‑time cost tracking. Results included faster, more accurate bids, consolidated reporting and audit trails, payroll processing cut from two days to half a day (about a 30% time savings), and the ability to see daily costs earlier and better manage profitability on larger projects.
