Intuit Launches AI-Powered Construction Edition for Enterprise Suite
Intuit, the global financial technology platform behind TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, Mailchimp, and Intuit Enterprise Suite, has introduced a new Construction Edition for Intuit Enterprise Suite. This AI-native, end-to-end ERP is purpose-built to address the unique complexities of the $2 trillion construction industry.
Designed for mid-market construction businesses, the solution centralizes project, financial, and operational workflows in a single platform. It helps companies streamline operations, enhance cash flow, and gain real-time visibility into performance—driving profitable growth at scale. These construction-specific features are also available as a module for QuickBooks Online Advanced customers.
Industry-Specific ERP for Construction
Intuit Enterprise Suite is already recognized for helping businesses operate efficiently with customizable, industry-specific KPIs and dashboards across field services, healthcare, nonprofit, and manufacturing. The launch of the Construction Edition marks Intuit’s first industry-specific ERP, reflecting a broader strategy to deliver tailored, end-to-end solutions for each industry.
Construction businesses are naturally complex, with multiple projects to manage, rising material costs, and limited visibility into overall performance,” said Ashley Still, EVP and GM, Mid-Market, Intuit. “Data is often siloed, and spotting trends is difficult. Our AI-native ERP automates workflows, delivers actionable insights, and manages all aspects of a project—from proposal to payment—accelerating deal closure and growth.
Addressing the Challenges of Construction
Construction is plagued by disconnected systems, manual processes, and limited financial visibility across projects and entities. Yet, a recent Intuit report highlights that 93% of construction leaders believe technology can significantly increase productivity and mitigate rising costs.
Unlike other ERP systems retrofitted for vertical use, Intuit Enterprise Suite Construction Edition is purpose-built for the way construction companies actually operate. Leveraging AI-native capabilities, it helps finance and operations leaders:
- Unify workflows across projects and financial management
- Automate key processes, reducing manual tasks and errors
- Deliver AI-driven insights for faster, more informed decisions
The platform also provides robust ERP functionalities, including multi-entity dashboards and advanced financial controls, essential for modern construction finance teams.
If you don’t understand your business, you are flying blind,” said Chad Shaules, CEO, Cornerstone Development Company. “Intuit Enterprise Suite gives you that foundation to understand your business.
Scaling mid-market companies need a financial platform that keeps up with operational complexity,” added Jordan Fladell, Partner, Aprio. “The Construction Edition delivers real value for industries with multi-entity operations.
