Accountability systems for construction trades
Your daily report shouldn't depend on whether somebody remembered to write it.
Crew check-ins, task completion, and live job status across every project. Captured as the work happens, and kept in a record that holds up when a claim lands.

You already know what happened. You just can't prove it.
Three situations every builder recognizes.
The sub who says he was there.
He billed for six men on Tuesday. Your super remembers four. Nobody wrote it down, the pour is finished, and now you're negotiating a number based on two people's memories.
The safety file with a hole in it.
Everything was done right. The toolbox talk happened, the harnesses were on, the inspection got walked. None of it was documented, and the only version that exists now is the one in the incident report.
The rework nobody owns.
It got built wrong, it got torn out, and it got built again. Four days and $22,000 later, everyone at the table has a different account of who approved what. Every one of them is confident.
None of these are information problems. You knew what was happening on your own job. They're evidence problems. The record either exists at the moment it mattered, or it never exists at all.
What it does
Built for how a job site actually runs.
Crew check-in by shift — who claimed the shift, who started it, and when, rather than a signature sheet
Daily reports built from the log — manpower counts and work performed, assembled from what the field already recorded
Subcontractor accountability — headcount on shift by trade, compared against what got billed
Files attached to every task — the drawing, the sign-off, the note, filed against the phase
Safety and toolbox tracking — talks logged, attendance captured, inspections documented as they happen
Coverage gaps on one screen — a short crew or an unclaimed shift shows at 7:15 instead of at 4:30
A searchable project record — pull every log entry and attached file for a date range when the claim shows up
How it works
Tuesday morning, with the system running.
Crews check in. Your super opens one screen and sees headcount by trade across four jobs without making a call. The framing sub shows four men against a billed six. He sees it that morning, not six weeks later in billing review.
At the end of the day the daily report is already built. Your PM reviews it, adds a note, and it's filed. Nobody stays late writing it. Nobody skips it because they were tired.
Eleven months on, a claim arrives about work on the third floor. You pull the date range and hand over a complete manpower log with every file attached to it. The conversation is over in a week instead of a year.
Pricing
$22,000–$25,000, one time. Then $150 a year.
You own the system. Run it across every project you take on, and add crews and subs without adding cost. The records stay permanently, including the ones you need years after the job closes out.
A full construction platform runs $1,200–$2,500 a month for an operation your size, and the implementation is quoted on top. We're ahead of that inside two years, and $150 a year after. Hosting sits on your own cloud account, and it's a rounding error against either number.
Pay it monthly if that's easier.
Split the implementation fee across monthly installments, usually six, with no interest and no financing company involved. The system goes live at the start, not when the last payment clears.
Objections
- "My guys won't use it."
- They tap a button when they get to the site and check tasks off as they finish them. There's no data entry. If a rollout has failed on you before, it was almost certainly a system that asked the field to type.
- "We already have project management software."
- Most of it is built for the office. This is built for the field, and it feeds the office. The two are meant to run alongside each other.
- "I can't drop $25,000 in one quarter."
- Then don't. Split it over six or twelve months at no extra cost. You get the system on day one either way.
- "What happens if we stop working with you?"
- Nothing. You own it. The $150 a year is maintenance, not access, and the system keeps running whether or not you ever call us again. It sits on your own cloud account, so the only bill you can't walk away from is the provider's, and that one is small.
