Core Plus includes everything in Core, plus budgeting and procurement tools that allow your team to manage project budgets, create purchase orders, and track orders and shipments through delivery, all within Gather.

Start budgeting earlier in the project and continue refining the numbers as selections, pricing, and purchasing decisions become more concrete.

Preliminary Estimate → Working Budget → Actuals

Build early estimates using areas, schedules, types, and allowances, then move into a working budget as the project develops. As purchasing begins, you can compare your budget against actual project costs in the same place you’re already managing your specifications.

Keep estimates, working budgets, and actual costs connected as the project progresses.

When it’s time to purchase, Core Plus provides your team with a dedicated ordering workflow within Gather.

Create and manage purchase orders while keeping them connected to the products and project information your team has already developed.

From the Orders workspace, you can quickly see purchase orders, suppliers, order statuses, totals, and related shipments.

Manage purchase orders across all your projects from one view.

Core Plus gives your team visibility into shipments as orders move toward delivery.

Track shipment status, tracking information, ship-to locations, shipped dates, estimated arrival dates, and received dates from one place.

That makes it easier for your team to understand what has shipped, what has arrived, and what still needs attention.

Follow shipments from order through delivery and receiving.

The Gather Clipper can now do more than create new items.

With the upgraded Clipper, you can update product information on items that already exist in Gather, making it easier to keep specifications current as product details change. The upgraded Clipper is included in both Core and Core Plus.

Update existing Gather items directly from the Clipper.

Core and Core Plus both include access to Gather’s Public API and MCP, giving firms more flexibility in how they work with their Gather data.

The Public API can be used to connect Gather with other tools and build custom workflows around your project information.

MCP opens up new ways to work with Gather through supported AI tools, including querying project data and incorporating Gather information into AI-assisted workflows.

For firms with technical teams or more customized workflows, these tools create opportunities to connect Gather with the systems you already use rather than keeping your project data isolated.
