Petty Cash Management for Construction Companies
Track project costs, manage subcontractor payments, and control petty cash across multiple job sites — all in one place.
The Challenge
Construction companies operate across multiple job sites, each needing cash for small purchases: materials, tools, fuel, and worker supplies. Traditional petty cash management with envelopes and spreadsheets leads to lost receipts, untracked spending, and no visibility into per-project costs until month-end — if at all.
How PettyCash Helps
Multi-site funds: Each job site gets its own petty cash fund with a designated custodian and spending limits.
Project tagging: Every expense is tagged to a project, giving you real-time per-project cost visibility.
Subcontractor tracking: Subcontractors submit receipts via a simple link. No more chasing paper receipts across sites.
Mobilization costs: Track fuel, equipment rental, and site setup expenses separately for accurate job costing.
Case Study Example
A mid-sized construction company with 5 active job sites was losing an estimated 15,000 SAR per month in untracked petty cash spending. After implementing PettyCash, they gained real-time visibility into every site's cash, reduced receipt loss by 90%, and could accurately allocate costs to projects. Month-end reconciliation that took 3 days now takes 30 minutes.
