Outsourced Procore Accounting For General Contractors & Specialty Trades

REA provides outsourced accounting built around Procore, for general contractors and specialty trade contractors running mid-size to large projects. We work directly inside your Procore instance to keep commitments, change events, and job costs tied to your general ledger, so your numbers never drift from what is happening in the field.

Procore tracks budgets, commitments, and change events by cost code. Your accounting system tracks cash, AP, and the financial statements. When Procore financials and your general ledger are reconciled by hand, or not at all, the job cost report says one thing and the balance sheet says another, and nobody knows which number to trust at month end.

We reconcile Procore commitments against accounts payable, match change events to approved change orders, and tie Procore's budget vs actual to your general ledger, whether that ledger is QuickBooks, Sage 300 CRE, Sage Intacct, Viewpoint Vista, or another system connected through the Procore ERP Connector. We do not implement or configure Procore. We own the accounting underneath it.

Why Top Construction Professionals Choose REA

Procore, Run By People Who Already Run It

Procore Experts

Our Procore consultants work inside cost management and commitments modules every week, not once a quarter. We know how change events, budget modifications, and cost codes actually move through the platform.

Assigned Resources

You get a dedicated accounting team that learns your job structure, your cost code list, and your subcontractor base. They show up consistently in your Procore instance and your general ledger, not a rotating help desk.

Accurate Financials

Every commitment, change event, and draw gets tied back to the general ledger before your financial statements go out. Your job cost report and your P&L finally tell the same story.

Procore Financial Management Services from REA

Job-Level Work, Inside Your Own Instance

Commitment & Change Event Reconciliation

We match every Procore commitment to the vendor invoices hitting accounts payable, and every change event to an approved change order before it hits the budget. Nothing moves from the field to the financials without a paper trail.

See how it works

Budget vs. Actual Reporting

We tie Procore's budget vs actual by cost code to your general ledger, so project managers and your CFO are reading the same numbers. Cost-to-complete projections come from data that has already been reconciled, not from two spreadsheets that disagree.

AIA Draw & Billing Support

We prepare Procore AIA billing draw packages and pay applications pulled from Procore invoicing, checked against retainage and contract terms before they go to the owner or lender. Draws go out accurate the first time, not resubmitted.

Procore ERP Connector Oversight

Whether you're running a Procore QuickBooks integration, a Procore Sage 300 integration, or another system linked through the Procore ERP Connector, we monitor what actually synced versus what should have synced. A failed sync gets caught before it becomes a missing cost code at month end.

Retainage & Subcontractor Compliance

We track retainage held and released against each commitment, and keep subcontractor compliance documents, lien waivers and insurance certificates, tied to the payments Procore is authorizing. Nothing gets paid against an expired certificate.

Why Choose REA to Handle Your Procore Accounting?

Three Things Contractors Tell Us They Need

Construction accounting is not traditional bookkeeping. Job costing, retainage, WIP schedules and draw tracking all have to reflect how projects actually run, and Procore only helps if someone is running it properly.

What it does well

You need your job cost reports and your financial statements to agree.

When Procore and your general ledger are reconciled by different people, on different schedules, the numbers drift apart. We own both sides of that reconciliation, so the report your PM pulls from Procore matches the statement your CFO signs off on.

Where it breaks

You need someone who understands cost codes, not just debits and credits.

Generalist bookkeepers reconcile a bank account. We reconcile a commitment against a cost code against a change order against a draw. That is a different skill, and it is the one your Procore setup actually requires.

How we work it

You need change events caught before they blow the budget, not after.

A change event sitting unapproved in Procore for three weeks is a budget variance nobody has explained yet. We flag unresolved change events and unreconciled commitments before they surface as a surprise in your monthly numbers.

How REA's Procore Process Works

Review the Setup, Then Own the Monthly Close

Start With a Call
  1. 1

    We audit your Procore instance and your current books together.

    We review your cost code structure, open commitments, unresolved change events, and how, or whether, Procore is currently connected to your accounting system. We flag what is out of sync before we touch a single entry.

  2. 2

    We take over the reconciliation between Procore and your general ledger.

    We reconcile commitments to AP, change events to approved change orders, and Procore's budget vs actual to your GL on a set monthly schedule. Your existing accounting system stays in place. We do not migrate you off it.

  3. 3

    We deliver reporting your project managers and your CFO can both use.

    You get monthly job cost reports, WIP schedules, and financial statements that are already reconciled against Procore, not built from a spreadsheet pulled together the night before a meeting.

What Each Service Actually Covers

Every function below is performed inside a Procore engagement, and each one can be scoped on its own if that is all you need.

Catch-Up & Cleanup
If your Procore commitments, change events, and general ledger have drifted apart for months, we rebuild the reconciliation from the last clean period forward. You get a current, trustworthy job cost report before we set up ongoing monthly service.
Bank, Credit, & Funding Reconciliations
We reconcile every bank and credit account against the draws, retainage releases, and vendor payments Procore is tracking by project. Construction loan draws get matched to actual cost-to-date, not estimated figures.
Job Costing & Cost-to-Complete Tracking
We tie Procore's cost codes to your chart of accounts and keep cost-to-complete projections current as commitments and change events move. Your project managers see the same cost-to-complete number your accountant is reporting.
Corporate & Project-Level Bookkeeping
We keep both your corporate books and your individual project ledgers current, reconciled against the commitments and budgets Procore is tracking for each job. Overhead allocation and project-level costs stay separated correctly.
Accounts Payable & Subcontractor Management
We match subcontractor invoices to Procore commitments before they are paid, checking retainage terms and compliance documents along the way. Nothing gets paid against a commitment that does not match what was approved.
Accurate Financial Statements & KPI Reporting
Your financial statements are built from numbers already reconciled against Procore, not adjusted after the fact. We report the KPIs general contractors and specialty trades actually track: gross margin by job, backlog, and cost-to-complete.
Monthly WIP & Reporting Packages
We prepare a monthly WIP schedule pulled from Procore's budget vs actual and tied to your general ledger, so over billings and under billings are calculated from reconciled data. Your bonding agent and your lender get numbers that hold up.
Fixed Asset, Equipment & Depreciation Support
We track equipment costs and depreciation separately from job costs, so equipment expense stops distorting your project margins in Procore's cost reports. Fixed asset schedules stay current and audit ready.
Construction Loan & Draw Management
We prepare draw packages and pay applications sourced from Procore invoicing, checked against retainage and the approved budget before they go to the lender or owner. Draws are backed by numbers that already reconcile to the GL.

You Get a Team With Names, Not a Ticket Queue

Outsourced accounting fails when nobody owns the account. At REA you are assigned a property accounting team and a client success lead who knows your portfolio, your owners, and your quirks. They stay on your account, so you are never re-explaining your chart of accounts to someone new.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Procore accounting software, or do we still need QuickBooks or Sage too?

Procore is construction management software. It handles project execution, budgets, commitments, and change events, but it is not a general ledger and does not replace an accounting system. You still need QuickBooks, Sage, or another platform behind it, and that is the layer REA manages.

Which accounting systems does REA connect Procore to?

We work with Procore alongside QuickBooks Online and Desktop, Sage 300 CRE, Sage Intacct, Viewpoint Vista, NetSuite, Acumatica, CMiC, and Foundation, including instances linked through the Procore ERP Connector. If your systems are already connected, we reconcile what is syncing. If they are not, we work with what you have.

What does REA actually do inside Procore each month?

We reconcile Procore commitments against accounts payable, match change events to approved change orders, and tie Procore's budget vs actual by cost code to your general ledger. We are not configuring Procore or managing your project data, we are making sure the accounting behind it is correct.

Do you implement or configure Procore for us?

No. We do not sell Procore implementation, training, or configuration. Our work is the accounting layer underneath Procore, reconciling what the platform is tracking against your books.

Our Procore data and our books do not match right now. Can you fix that?

Yes. Catch up and cleanup is one of our core services. We rebuild the reconciliation between Procore commitments, change events, and your general ledger from the last clean period forward, then hand you a current job cost report before moving to ongoing monthly service.

What reporting do we get each month?

You get a monthly WIP schedule, job cost reports by cost code, and financial statements that are already reconciled against Procore's budget vs actual, along with cost-to-complete projections. Project managers and ownership work from the same numbers.

How does onboarding work?

We start by reviewing your current Procore setup, cost code structure, open commitments, and how your accounting system is connected today. From there we take over the monthly reconciliation on a set schedule, without migrating you off any system you are already using.

Will REA work with our existing CPA or tax preparer?

Yes. We handle the monthly accounting and reconciliation, and we provide your CPA with reconciled, tax-ready financials at year end. We are not a replacement for your CPA relationship, we make their job easier by handing over books that already tie out.

Do you work with specialty trade contractors, or only general contractors?

Both. We work with general contractors and specialty trade subcontractors running commitments and change events through Procore, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other trades billing against draws and retainage.

Do you work with other construction platforms?

Yes. REA runs construction and development accounting across the whole stack, including Buildertrend, Premier Construction Software, Sage, Northspyre, and QuickBooks. If your team runs more than one platform, we reconcile between them so every system reports the same numbers.
