Construction finance is more than just closing the books. It’s juggling change orders, managing cash flow across dozens of jobs, and spotting risk before it becomes reality. For too long, controllers and finance leads have been stuck in reactive mode: reconciling numbers, hunting for variances, and living inside spreadsheets.
That’s changing fast.
Meet Sage Copilot, your AI-powered assistant built into Sage Intacct. It’s not just a flashy tool. It’s a practical, finance-first co-pilot designed to help construction companies move faster, close smarter, and spend more time leading, not cleaning up.
Why AI Is a Game Changer for Construction Finance
Sage Copilot is already transforming workflows for Ledgerable clients. With SmartCare’s hands-on support, construction teams are seeing real results in less time. Here’s what that looks like on the ground:
⦁ Accelerated Close Cycles
The month-end crunch doesn’t have to feel like a fire drill. Copilot’s Close Assistant gives you guided task management across AR, AP, GL, and cash. It flags what’s missing, what’s delayed, and what’s done, so your team stays in control from day one to deadline.
Ledgerable SmartCare teams help you implement and customize Close Assistant to match your construction workflow, whether you’re tracking dozens of jobs or reconciling complex intercompany activity.
⦁ Real-Time Variance Analysis
No more waiting for someone to run a report. Variance Analysis tracks budget deviations across jobs, cost codes, and timelines, then serves up real-time insights so you can catch problems early. Whether it’s an unexpected labor spike or unbilled change orders, you see it before it hits your cash flow.
⦁ Faster Reconciliations
One of the biggest drains on finance teams? Manual subledger reconciliation. Copilot helps automate the process, speeding up GL cleanup and reducing costly errors.
With Ledgerable’s help, clients are reducing reconciliation times by up to 40%, freeing up senior finance leaders to focus on strategy instead of spreadsheets.
⦁ Instant Answers, Inside Intacct
Search Help is now rolling out to all users, and it’s a game changer. Instead of hunting through help docs or waiting for support, you can ask Copilot a question right inside Sage Intacct and get contextual, reliable answers fast.
Imagine your AP manager typing: “How do I update a vendor’s payment method for a specific entity?” and getting the right steps immediately.

AI is everywhere, but Sage Copilot is trained for finance, and even more importantly, it’s trained for you. This isn’t generic automation. It’s built into your actual workflows, monitoring the tools and tasks your construction finance team uses every day.
