Synopsis
This builder's manual features a hundred pages of blank forms for the construction office and building site. Includes complete instructions and a computer disk containing all the forms for use on the builder's own printer.

Book Info
Nearly every contract and form you're going to need is here ready for reproduction on your copy machine. The authors are construction contractors and have used these forms for many years. They're good. They're complete. They're going to save you time and money day after day. By themselves, they're worth the price of the book. But that's just the beginning if you have a computer and a printer.

With that combination and the CD inside the back cover of this book, you're going to be a paperwork wizard. You can lay these forms open on your computer screen and customize them to fit your needs exactly:

-	Add your company name and address
-	Add whatever you feel is missing
-	Delete what doesn't suit your operation
-	Change the column headings or row widths

If you know how to use any of the popular word processing or spreadsheet programs, you'll have no trouble using the disk included. Even if you don't have a word processing program, you'll be able to use these forms on your computer. Full instructions in the book explain how to open and use any of these forms:

-	Estimating forms, checklists, job and equipment logs and time sheets
-	Contracts and change orders for remodeling, new construction and T&M jobs
-	Progress billing sheets, purchase orders, time and material invoices
-	Lien notices, time cards, cover letters, transmittals and memos

The compact disk has a version of all 125 forms exactly right for anyone who uses:

-	Ami Pro 3.0 for Windows
-	Lotus Word Pro
-	WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS, & 6.0
-	Claris Works 5.0
-	NCU Edit for DOS
-	Corel WordPerfect
-	Excel for Windows 3.1, 95, NT & 98

No Word Processor or Spreadsheet Program Needed

If you don't have any of these programs, there's another version of all 125 forms that will work on any computer that operates on DOS, Windows or Mac systems. If you don't have a CD drive, a 31/2" disk is also available.

Craig Savage is a contractor with over 30 years of construction experience and in appreciation for what the computer can do in the builder's office. In this book he draws on these skills to help builders with a marked dislike for paper-shuffling resolve the age-old dilemma of how to achieve the accurate, through records every business requires, while not spending the entire work week doing it.

Karen Jones-Mitchell has 1 5 years experience as a general contractor and finance consultant. Between her two careers, she's become a seasoned pro in building, in construction accounting, and in computers. Karen knows inside and out the special problems of construction record-keeping and construction offices. In this book she has combined that knowledge to help create the most user-friendly set of forms you've ever seen or used.
