ICB is delighted to have accredited NextMinute, a sector-specific app that can be used by bookkeepers servicing construction and trade businesses. The software enables construction industry workers and tradespeople to manage their jobs from their mobile phones, tablets and desktops giving total accessibility to their information.

Software review by ICB Certified Bookkeeper

The software review was undertaken by Lara Manton MICB PM.Dip, winner of the 2021 LUCA Award for Small Practice of the Year and owner of LJM Bookkeeping. Lara says,

"Any bookkeeper that works with construction clients knows how disorganised they can be, from paper timesheets to envelopes of receipts that come with added sand. Getting them on a system isn’t always the easiest thing, so having everything in one place, easy to use, and integrated is ideal.

"This app means that if they’re on the go then they don’t have the excuse of not being able to do anything until they’re at their computer, and real-time information means nothing is forgotten or delayed. It should help us to have a better idea of what is going on and help clients quote based on accurate figures, invoice quicker, and get paid quicker. It should reduce admin time spent, whether that be the bookkeeper, internal administrator, or by the business owner.

"Everyone has access to the same information and team members can only see what they are allocated to, meaning subbies (who can be averse to new technology) only have their own tasks and timesheets to submit."
