Cost Code

Job Costing

A standardized numerical or alphanumerical code used to categorize construction costs by type of work (e.g., 03-Concrete, 26-Electrical). Cost codes are used in project management software like Buildertrend and Procore to track expenses against budgets. Commercial contractors typically align cost codes with the CSI MasterFormat system.
