Digitization for accounting in the construction and real estate industry

Digitization for the construction and real estate industry

The construction industry is a key sector in Germany. According to the Federal Office for Building and Regional Planning, it is one of the sectors that has so far come through the crisis best and is playing a key role in supporting the German economy. Demand for construction services remains high.

And yet German construction companies are facing major challenges. Digitization is also one of the keywords here; a topic that does not stop at the construction industry.

Nowadays, it is difficult to imagine construction without software programs. This applies not only to project planning and costing, but also to the administrative area.

The challenge of e-invoicing

The topic of electronic invoicing or digital invoicing plays a special role here. Since November 2020, all suppliers have been required to submit invoices electronically to the federal authorities in accordance with certain format specifications (XInvoice). And this primarily affects the construction and trades industries. Those who have not adapted their invoicing processes accordingly here run the risk of not being able to participate in tenders. In the worst case, even that invoices will not be paid.
