Software for excavation, paving and site work.

We build simple field apps that let a crew fill in the day's log, hours, inspections and photos on a phone, with no signal, and have it land in the office ready to bill and file. Hours and safety records are captured once, job cost is visible while the job is running, and audit prep is a report instead of a week.

Two people in Newfoundland build it, fitted to how your operation already runs, at a fixed price you get in writing before anything starts. 2 of the 7 things below are already built and tested, and they say so.

01Where the day goes

The same few places, in most operations we look at.

Patterns across excavation, paving and site work, not claims about yours. If none of these is you, the call is a short one and we will say so.

01Site paperwork still lives on paper and gets keyed in at the office.
02Job cost and hours are only clear at the end of the job.
03Safety records are kept in binders and audit prep takes days.
04Equipment location and hours are tracked by memory.

The paperwork today: daily logs, timesheets, safety forms (hazard assessments, inspections, incident reports, COR audits), change orders, purchase orders and progress claims
Where the money or the time goes: unbilled changes, equipment sitting idle or unaccounted, hours re-typed into payroll and COR audit prep

02What we would build

For excavation, paving and site work, most useful first.

Two kinds of line on this list, and the difference matters. Built and tested means a tested package or a live route exists in our repository today and you can go and poke at it. Built to order means we have scoped it and have the engines to support it, and it has not shipped. We would rather you know which is which before the call than after.

Synthetic data, real code. The closest of the 7 demos to this trade, and what they were written for.

Dockside

Offline catch capture

Record the landing, signal or none.

Cut the connection and keep recording. Records queue on the device, the list keeps reading from what the phone already holds, and one of them gets refused by the server on the way back in.

Live stock position

Where every pound is, right now.

Product and quantity per site, the way a whiteboard shows it. Stock in transit sits outside the totals on purpose, aged stock flags itself, and the same numbers reflow onto a wall screen.
