Even if they are operating digitally, it usually means countless email chains with outdated spreadsheets lost in their inboxes. While there are still those who use these offline tools, most management has adopted digital tools and technologies as they’ve become available.
Where do these digital tools fail?
While most of the processes needed to run an efficient construction site have moved to cloud-based digital software and tools, there has been a massive disconnect between those providing the data and those who need the information for planning. Or even worse, because the software was created to manage a specific problem in a silo, the tools do not communicate with each other leading to unnecessary (error-prone) manual intervention.
Bad data causes big problems—for every department.
Not just a problem for project managers, flawed software can cause issues for those working with the administrative systems. The disconnect between digital tools often leads to double-entry errors, differences in numbers between employees (if you can read their chicken scratch at all), and lost time due to the redundant manual processes.
Management’s problems don’t stop at the job site either – inefficient and incorrect timesheets lead to false project invoices and project financials. When dealing with the moving parts of a construction project, having up to date data and reports at your team’s fingertips is that much more crucial. Not having that information, in turn, creates problems for other departments who then make decisions for the company while limited in their ability to understand the complete financial picture.
While Traqspera seamlessly integrates with several third-party platforms like Viewpoint’s Spectrum and Vista products, Quickbooks, and Microsoft Dynamics, it is also a fully functional standalone product perfect for small and midsized construction companies. Traqspera features timesheets, project management, asset and resource management, robust reporting, and safety management. All built right in. House your entire team, worksite to office, in one simple to use app.
