    See the work coming before you need it.

    Track every project from bid to award in one place. Coltivar shows you backlog and pipeline by phase with contract value, gross margin, and probability of award, so you can see a slow quarter forming months out instead of taking bad work to stay busy.

    Know exactly where your cash stands.

    Every owner wants to know their cash, what is coming in, what is going out, and what is left after payroll and the vendors are paid. Coltivar lays it out week by week and flags the moment your balance runs tight, so the answer is always in front of you instead of a number you are guessing at.
