CFMA 2026 — Phoenix
We heard it from you directly.
Cash flow pressure. Fear of switching. Frustration with implementation timelines. We were listening at Booth 216.
Most contractors don't lose margin in one catastrophic moment. They lose it through information delays from the field, lack of visibility into labor, and incomplete job cost discovered after payroll closes — when the damage is already done.
See for yourself how Trayd helps you stay ahead of margin erosion.
The margin problem
It's not a single mistake. It's a slow bleed — and it's happening on every job right now.
When your first signal of a labor overrun is a closed payroll run, the overrun has already happened. There's nothing left to fix and only margin left to recover.
"If payroll is when you discover labor overruns, the damage is already done." — Anna Berger, CEO of Trayd
Paper time cards, labor allocations, and job cost data all flow in after the fact. What looks on track in your system often isn't in the field.
Payroll in one place. HR in another. Job costing somewhere else. Tightening economic conditions make this patchwork the single biggest cash flow risk you're carrying.

How Trayd solves it
One platform for payroll, HR, compliance, and job costing — built specifically for specialty contractors.
Field time data flows directly into job costing at the cost code level with no delays, no manual entry, and no waiting for payroll to see where you stand.
See fully burdened labor costs, budgets and potential overruns by project while the job is running. Catch cost problems before they erode your margin.
Certified payroll, prevailing wage, HR, and compliance all live in the same system as your field data. No surprises at closeout.

What contractors tell us
The feedback from Phoenix was consistent: cash flow pressure is real, legacy platforms are failing them, and the cost of doing nothing is getting higher.
Why Trayd
Your back office deserves better than a 12-month implementation and a platform that wasn't built for how you work. Trayd is live in weeks — with $0 implementation fee.
Designed from the ground up for certified payroll, prevailing wage, multi-job crews, and compliance. Not retrofitted from a generic HR platform.
We heard the frustration with Vista to Viewpoint. Trayd goes live in weeks, not months. Our implementation team treats go-live as the beginning, not the deliverable. $0 implementation fee.
When CFOs can see labor cost exposure in real time, before payroll closes, they make better calls on hiring, bidding, and working capital management.
Payroll, HR, compliance, time tracking, and job costing in a single platform. No syncing errors, no reconciliation overhead, no data that's a week old.
See how much Trayd can give back to your bottom line.
