How it works
From the schedule to the job cost.
Four steps, on the screens your office and crews already carry.
FieldCrew · iPhone and iPad app
Crews get their assignments, drawings and job details on their device.
Each crew member sees their tasks for the day with directions, notes, the job's files and the marked-up drawings. Drawings can be marked up on site with field symbols, cable routes and measurements.
Day ticketCrew · iPhone and iPad app
Crews submit a day ticket from the site.
A day ticket records who worked, work and travel hours, materials used, photos, what was done, and anything left unfinished. Tickets can be corrected later and every change is kept.
CostingOffice · web app
The office reviews tickets and sees job costs.
Submitted hours and materials become labor and material costs by job, task and ticket. Missing tickets, missing hours, unscheduled work and open items show up on one list.
Day tickets
What a day ticket records.
Crews fill in a day ticket on their phone or iPad before leaving the site: crew, hours, travel, materials, photos, and any open items. The office gets it right away.
