Integrations
Connect Procore, accounting, scheduling, and CRM so the numbers agree
Most contractors run project management, accounting, scheduling, and CRM in separate systems that share no common ID. We build the integrations between them: API extraction, a crosswalk that links jobs, vendors, and cost codes, validation before anything moves, and monitoring that says when a sync fails. Unmatched records stay visible on an exceptions list instead of disappearing.
The value it creates
Time saved
Stop re-keying between systems
Jobs, commitments, costs, and milestones move on a schedule instead of being copied by hand. We measure the hours spent on manual entry and reconciliation before and after.
Cost saved
Fewer errors to chase
Validation rules catch mismatched job numbers, missing cost codes, and duplicate vendors before they reach the ledger or the report, so less time goes into rework.
Better decisions
One set of numbers
When Procore, accounting, and the schedule are linked through one crosswalk, finance and operations discuss the job, not whose spreadsheet is right.
Early warning
Failures surface, not hide
Every run records what loaded, what was rejected, and why. A failed sync or a stale source is flagged before someone makes a decision on old data.
Standardization
Master data that stays consistent
A maintained crosswalk for projects, vendors, and cost codes means every downstream report and workflow uses the same mapping, every time.
Collective intelligence
Field, finance, and sales on one record
CRM pipeline, project management, and accounting connect to the same project identity, so each team sees the same job from its own system.
What we build
API extraction and sync
Scheduled or event-driven pulls from Procore, Sage, QuickBooks Online, HubSpot, P6, and other systems, with paging, rate limits, and incremental loads handled.
Project, vendor, and cost-code crosswalks
Mapping tables that link the same job, vendor, or cost code across systems that share no common ID, with documented match rules in order of trust.
Validation and exception handling
Rules that check records before they move. Anything that fails is flagged with a reason and kept on an exceptions list, never silently dropped.
Run logging and monitoring
Each run records row counts, rejects, and timing, with alerts when a source is stale or a sync fails, so the system finds problems before the report reader does.
Webhooks and event triggers
Integrations that react when something changes, such as a deal marked won or a document uploaded, using n8n, Power Automate, Zapier, or custom services.
Data lake landing for reporting
Raw extracts land in a Microsoft Fabric or Azure store with history kept, so reporting and AI tools read from one governed copy instead of hitting every API.
Secure credentials and access
OAuth and service accounts with least-privilege scopes, secrets kept out of code, and access reviewed with your IT team.
How it works
1.Reporting
Bring the information together and define what the numbers mean.
2.Automation
Reduce repeatable handoffs, reminders, and data entry across your systems.
3.AI
Help people investigate questions, prepare drafts, and use approved tools with clear access boundaries.
Shared data foundation
- Connected sources
- Crosswalk (project ↔ job ↔ deal)
- Quality checks
- 1
Inventory systems and identifiers
We list each source, its API or export, who owns it, and which fields identify a job, vendor, and cost code in each one.
- 2
Agree the crosswalk and match rules
We define how records link across systems and which rule wins when they disagree, and we review sample matches with your team.
- 3
Build extraction, validation, and loads
Pipelines pull data, check it against the rules, load what passes, and route what fails to an exceptions list with the reason attached.
- 4
Add monitoring and alerts
Run logs, freshness checks, and failure alerts go in before go-live, so an expired token or a changed field shows up the same day.
- 5
Hand over and document
You get the mapping, the rules, the runbook, and the code, so your team can see exactly how a number got from source to destination.

How we measure the value
We agree a baseline before we build and measure the same things after go-live. Use the monthly report cost calculator to put your own numbers on it.
| What we measure | How baseline and after are captured |
|---|---|
| Manual hours spent re-keying and reconciling between systems | We time the current process with the people who do it for one full cycle, then record the same tasks after go-live. |
| Unmatched or rejected records per run | The exceptions list counts unmatched jobs, vendors, and cost codes from the first run, and we track that count as fixes are made at the source. |
| Data freshness | Run logs record when each source last loaded successfully, compared with how old the data was in the manual process. |
| Sync failures caught by monitoring versus found by users | We log each failure and note whether an alert caught it or a report reader noticed it first. |
Use cases
- Built and shown
Procore and Sage integration for reporting you can reconcile
Procore projects matched to Sage jobs in a governed lakehouse, so cost, billing, and AP line up in one report and every mismatch lands on a worklist.
- Built and shown
Procore and QuickBooks Online integration for WIP and cash reporting
Procore forecasts and QuickBooks actuals joined through a trust-ordered crosswalk, so the WIP schedule builds itself and unmapped jobs stay visible.
- We design and build this
CRM to Procore integration: one job record from pursuit to closeout
Stamp the CRM deal ID onto the Procore project, keep company and contact records aligned, and report pipeline next to backlog without retyping anything.
- Built and shown
Schedule data in your reporting: P6 and Outbuild next to cost
Milestones and activities from P6 XER files or Outbuild land in the same model as cost and project records, mapped to the right project.
- Built and shown
Cost-code crosswalk and master data that every report agrees on
Projects, cost codes, and vendors mapped once in versioned reference data, so every report uses the same answer and gaps go back to the owner.
- Built and shown
Get Procore data into Power BI, reliably
A repeatable pipeline from the Procore API into a Power BI model, with validation, history and refresh you can rely on.
- We design and build this
ERP migration data mapping without losing history
A versioned map from old ERP to new, reconciled before cutover, so job history, cost codes, and vendors carry over and reports read across both.
- We design and build this
Won deal to project setup across CRM, Procore and accounting
A won deal in the CRM becomes a set-up project in Procore and a job in accounting, with matching identifiers and no re-typing.

Ways to start
Frequently asked questions
Which construction systems have you integrated?
Our production builds connect Procore, Sage 100 Contractor, QuickBooks Online, HubSpot, Outbuild, and SharePoint through Microsoft Fabric. Reference builds and open-source work cover Primavera P6, Autodesk, HCSS, and Salesforce. For other systems, such as Viewpoint or Sage Intacct, we confirm what the API or export supports during discovery before we agree a scope.
What is a crosswalk and why does an integration need one?
A crosswalk is a mapping table that links the same project, vendor, or cost code across systems that use different identifiers. Procore, accounting, and CRM rarely share a common ID, so without a crosswalk records either fail to match or match wrongly. We document the match rules and keep unmatched records visible on an exceptions list.
What happens when a sync fails or a record is wrong?
Records that fail validation are flagged with a reason and kept, not dropped. Each run logs what loaded and what was rejected, and alerts fire when a source is stale or a run fails. Where possible we fix the problem in the source system so it does not recur.
Do you write data back into Procore or accounting, or only read from them?
Both are possible. Many projects start read-only into a reporting store, which carries the least risk. Write-back, such as creating a project from a won CRM deal, uses scoped permissions, validation before each write, and a log of every change, and we agree it explicitly with your team.
Should we use n8n, Power Automate, Zapier, or custom code?
It depends on volume, complexity, and what your IT team already supports. Low-code tools suit event-driven workflows and simple syncs; larger data loads and complex mapping usually belong in pipelines such as Microsoft Fabric. We recommend the option your team can maintain.
How is an integration project priced?
Integration work is fixed scope and price, agreed after discovery. The Integration Sprint offer is a common starting point: one important flow between your systems, with defined mappings, access, validation, monitoring, and operating ownership.
