The software we started developing in 1991 as a “Tender – Estimate – Progress Payment” programme provided over 1000 firms, the function of preparing tender documents and progress payments until 2000’s.

Since 2000 it has being used with our consultancy for various projects as an ERP system focusing on Construction Project Management.
We have contributed to Avinal ERP sources equivalent to 14.000 book pages (650000 lines of source code), 500 months/software labor, as well as our experience of 35 years of construction and our practical experience of dozens of various projects.
This software, which is an ERP for the Construction field, provides you the easy access and control over the databases that you need at every stage of a construction. The graph on the main page defines the philosophy and the content of our software.
One of the features of this software is the availability of data exchange as needed amongst well-known planning software (CPM) like Primavera – Suretrak – Microsoft Project, 3D architecture drawing pack ALLPLAN, various bookkeeping software like LOGO, LİNK, ETA and an institutional ERP solution such as SAP that is known worldwide.
