Previously, a self-developed Excel sheet was used to calculate and track costs. Both the manual input and maintenance of data and the import of highly specific, machine-readable binary data proved to be time-consuming. In addition, the formulas and cross-references contained in the Excel sheet were overly complex due to the many specifics. The evaluation of data was therefore lengthy and inconvenient. In order to save this effort and to replace the hardly maintainable Excel sheet, the civil engineering department decided to hire 4Soft, a cplace partner for many years, to develop a customised software based on cplace.

4Soft GmbH designed and developed a cplace system for faster and easier cost accounting and cost tracking at the City of Munich. It saves the processors many time-consuming steps in the process. Even the evaluation of data now happens for the most part automatically and those responsible at the City of Munich do not have to worry about transmission errors.
