Retail Construction Project Management Software

The construction platform built for multi-site retail expansion

Retail expansion doesn’t happen one project at a time. Manage openings, remodels, relocations, and rollout programs in parallel across regions.

What’s slowing down retail and QSR rollouts?

Multi-site work moves fast

Retail and quick-service restaurant (QSR) organizations oversee openings and remodel programs happening across regions at the same time.

Outdated and fragmented systems

Many companies rely on old, custom, or legacy systems like Oracle EBS or homegrown tools which are at their end of life and often fail. Disconnected systems cause extra work for users.

Regional reporting varies

Each region, vendor, and project team may track work differently. But when updates come from spreadsheets and contractor tools, leaders spend too much time rebuilding reports.

Forecasts drift across programs

Forecasts can fall behind when openings, remodels, and relocations change faster than reporting can keep up. By the time leaders see the impact, budgets and timelines may have shifted.

The Kahua Platform

Built for retail and QSR portfolios

Portfolio-level visibility

Location, location, location. When opening, remodeling, or refreshing, monitor activity by market and rollout phase. See where work is on track and what’s at risk.

Portfolio management

Forecasting you can trust

Connect cost and project updates close to the work. That way, when permits stall, a kitchen package shifts, or a drive-through is delayed, you can see what changed before it impacts the budget.

Analytics and dashboards Cost management

Standardized delivery

QSR teams need repeatable delivery—even though each location is different. Use consistent workflows and reporting, while still accounting for the site conditions, local requirements, and partner handoffs that affect each market.

Portfolio Management

Connect teams and workflows

QSR programs go through many team handoffs before doors open. Keep data, changes, and approvals connected between contractors, vendors, equipment partners, and internal teams—so you're not starting from scratch at each location.

Collaboration and workflows

Asset-centric project management

Capture and maintain project and asset information from construction through operations, so O&M teams get complete, structured data at handover and for ongoing maintenance.
