Built for Kenyan Construction
Project Cost Accounting
Track every shilling spent on each project — materials, labour, subcontractors, and overheads — using TallyPrime cost centres. Know your project profitability in real time.
Bill of Quantities (BOQ) Tracking
Map your BOQ to TallyPrime cost categories. Compare actual spend against budgeted quantities at every stage of the project.
Subcontractor Payment Management
Manage retention amounts, milestone payments, and withholding tax deductions for subcontractors. Generate payment certificates directly from TallyPrime.
Withholding Tax Compliance
Construction companies are subject to 3% withholding tax on payments to contractors. TallyPrime calculates and tracks WHT automatically on every applicable payment.
Multi-Project Reporting
Run profitability reports across all active projects simultaneously. Identify which projects are on budget and which need attention — before it's too late.
KRA eTIMS for All Invoices
All client invoices and supplier bills are eTIMS-validated. Stay compliant with KRA's 2026 expense validation requirements.
Construction FAQs
Can TallyPrime track retention amounts?
Yes. Retention amounts can be tracked as separate ledgers in TallyPrime. When retention is released, a credit note or payment is applied against the retention ledger.
How does TallyPrime handle progress billing?
Progress invoices (interim certificates) are recorded as partial invoices against the project. TallyPrime tracks the total contract value, amount billed to date, and balance remaining.
Can we track plant and equipment costs per project?
Yes. Using cost centres and job costing, you can allocate plant hire, fuel, and maintenance costs to specific projects for accurate project profitability reporting.
