Stop Losing Billable Dollars: How MEC General Contractors Automated Lowe’s & Home Depot Expenses

Screenshot 2025-09-11 at 4.24.53 PM

MEC General Contractors faced a costly challenge: field employees had to juggle receipts, photos, and manual expense reports for job site purchases. Administrators then re-entered and coded everything by hand, slowing billing, creating missed charges, and leaving the company exposed during audits.

By automating expense reporting, especially for Lowe’s and Home Depot purchases, MEC cut its billing cycle from a full week to just 24 hours, boosted general ledger accuracy above 90%, and freed employees from hours of manual work each week.

This transformation shows the power of DATABASICS Expense Reporting to keep construction projects moving faster, improve financial accuracy, and recover billable dollars that used to slip away.
