Overview
Sage Construction Management is a cloud-based preconstruction and project management solution for construction and real estate businesses, formerly known as Corecon before Sage acquired and rebranded it. It covers the project lifecycle from lead tracking and bidding through estimating, project operations, and financial reporting.
The product is designed to work alongside Sage's accounting and ERP systems -- Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate (CRE), Sage Intacct Construction, and Sage 100 Contractor -- using an integration layer called AccountingLink that syncs contacts, projects, cost codes, commitments (purchase orders, subcontracts, change orders), timecards, and invoices between the two systems. It is also sold as a standalone product that connects to non-Sage accounting platforms such as QuickBooks Desktop, QuickBooks Online, and Xero.
Sage positions the product for general contractors, subcontractors, and construction/real estate developers who need centralized bid management, field collaboration, and project financial visibility without replacing their existing accounting system.
