Clarity around the buyer’s choices
Organize the home’s plans, design sheets, packages, and selections. Review the agreed choice against the original allowance or cost expectation so the next team knows what changed.
Custom homebuilders
Build the home they imagine.
Know where the job stands.
Bring the buyer’s choices, the work you commit to, and the financial record into one connected process. Every custom home has its own scope; your team needs a clear record of what was chosen, approved, and committed.
BUILT INTO THE WORK
From the buyer’s decision to the financial record.
Changes with a record
Manage proposed changes, builder and customer approvals, change-order batches, and contract signatures. A requested option becomes agreed work through the documented review and finalization steps.
Purchasing tied to the project
Give vendors the quantities, prices, and project details behind the work you expect. Compare takeoff and budget revisions before updating POs; record exceptions through variants and their reasons.
Financial visibility throughout the build
Review budgets, commitments, invoices, and actual costs with the home’s projected margin. Include the costs to build, hold, and sell; keep the buyer’s price distinct from your cost.
WORKING EXAMPLES

01What changes when a buyer changes a selection?
The problem
Requested selection
A different kitchen finish affects the buyer’s price, the purchasing scope, and the home’s expected cost.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
- Home
- Lot 42
- Original cost allowance
- $8,000
- Revised selection cost
- $9,200
What you do in TK
Review before committing
Record the choice in the home’s design and pricing context. Review pricing and approval, then update the scope and purchasing records for the agreed work.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
- Buyer price
- Review separately from cost
- Approval
- Document the agreed change
- Purchasing
- Review revised scope
What you see
Follow the change
Follow the selection into purchasing, construction context, and job cost. The cost difference remains visible alongside the budget; a commitment is not a payment.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
- Cost difference
- +$1,200
- Field execution
- Use the agreed scope
- Job-cost review
- Compare with the budget
The decision it supports
Agree the handoff
Confirm the buyer’s agreement, coordinate the revised work, and review whether the change affects the home’s expected margin.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
- Sales / design
- Confirm the choice and price
- Purchasing / construction
- Coordinate the revised work
- Finance
- Review the margin effect
THE HANDOFF
Keep the decision with the home.
Sales and design document the buyer’s choice, price, and approval. Purchasing reviews the revised scope and commitment, construction coordinates the agreed work, and accounting reviews its effect on expected cost and margin. An invoice and a payment remain separate records.
