Project Name:

Shalimar Belvedere Suites (GH-12), Shalimar One World Township

Location:

Lucknow

Project Category:

Residential High-Rise (Group Housing)

Belvedere Suites is a premium high-rise development involving complex structural execution and high-precision finishing works. With a total project value of ~₹60 Cr and over 350 critical BOQ line items, the scope covered the entire construction lifecycle, from large-scale earthwork and concrete pours to detailed flooring and dado execution. The vertical scale and pace of execution demanded tight financial control, making real-time, BOQ-linked tracking essential to manage cash flow and cost accuracy across the project.

Complexity of the Project

  • The “Micro-Billing” Avalanche: The project suffers from extreme invoice fragmentation. While there are only 60+ Master Orders, vendors have submitted a staggering 1,200 partial invoices. Manually reconciling an average of 20 invoices per Purchase Order creates a massive administrative burden and high risk of duplicate billing.
  • High-Burn Site Operations: The site operates with enormous liquidity requirements. The team has raised ₹11 Crores in “Imprest” (Petty Cash) requests to fuel daily labour and material needs. Tracking ₹10 Cr of miscellaneous cash flow without a digital audit trail is a significant financial risk.
  • Complex Scope Transition: The project is pivoting from “Structure” (Shuttering, Reinforcement) to “Finishes” (Flooring, Skirting). This shift changes the tracking metric from “Cubic Meters” to “Square Feet,” requiring a flexible system that can track installed revenue accurately across different units of measurement to ensure the client’s billing (~₹50 Cr) remains accurate.

How RDash Helped

The Strategy: Taming the Paper Trail – We deployed RDash to act as the “Financial CNS” (Central Nervous System) of the project, specifically targeting the chaos of high-volume invoicing and site expenses.

Conquering the ~1200 Invoice Mountain

The biggest challenge was the sheer volume of paper. We digitised the ₹31.5 Crores of Vendor Orders, creating a rigid “Price & Quantity” lock.

When vendors flooded the system with ~1200 separate invoices (totalling ~₹30Cr), RDash acted as the gatekeeper. The system allowed the commercial team to process and approve ~₹5 Crores of verified work while holding back discrepancies. This “Liability Control” ensured that, despite the flood of bills, not a single rupee was approved without a 3-way match.

Auditing the ₹11 Cr Site Wallet

Managing ~₹11 Cr in petty cash is usually a black box. We implemented the Imprest Control Module, requiring every cash request to be tagged to a specific cost head.

The system successfully tracked and approved ~₹11 Crores of operational spend, flagging ~₹50 Lakhs for review. This ensured that the site had the funds to run fast, but Finance retained the brakes.

Driving Client Collections

By tracking installed revenue against the ~350 BOQ line items in real-time, the project team could raise accurate, substantiated bills to the developer.

Total Invoiced to Client: ~₹50 Crores.

Total Collected: ~₹40 Crores.

Impact: ~90% collection efficiency, driven by the transparency of the backup data provided by RDash.
