Bahrain construction lives on tight margins and tighter MoWHU deadlines, contractors who run Gantt schedules in Excel and chase subcontractors in WhatsApp burn weeks of PM time monthly. Zoho Projects + Books gives Manama contractors a working PMO stack at a fraction of Procore. Here's how to deploy it.
Build Gantt schedules tied to BoQ
Import the bill of quantities and link each line to project tasks. Zoho Projects' Gantt shows dependencies, critical path and slack. MoWHU (Ministry of Works) milestone reports export as PDF directly from the schedule, no separate spreadsheets needed.
Track RFIs, submittals and subcontractor compliance
Custom modules for RFI, submittals and Bahrainisation roster sit alongside the schedule. Each RFI has a 10-day SLA. Subcontractors log into a guest portal to update progress, submit invoices linked to BoQ progress, and upload daily HSE reports.
Budget vs actual with Zoho Books integration
POs, subcontractor invoices and timesheets in Zoho Books push directly into project cost. PMs see committed cost, actual cost and BoQ variance per work package. Variances over 5% trigger Cliq alerts so management intervenes before margin erosion.
