Go Mobile
Empower the Field Team
Mobile technology continues to revolutionize heavy construction and is
pivotal to field-centric cost management. Step one is the electronic field
log. Equipped with tablets, employees can capture field performance
data where and when it happens and communicate it in real time. That
increases the accuracy, quality and timeliness of the data.
Mobile devices can also provide the field team with easier access to
vital information. Everything they need to work more efficiently and
make better, data-driven decisions – from the latest forms and
documents to business intelligence reports and dashboards – is literally
at their fingertips.
Avoiding the complexities of financial/ERP systems is key to the
acceptance and effectiveness of mobile technology in the field.
Applications must be easy to learn and intuitive to use in a
construction environment, with a logic built for field construction users,
not accountants.

MOBILE TECHNOLOGY IS
VITAL TO DATA-DRIVEN
DECISION MAKING
"…it's been transformative to move from
paper to online tools and put the information
in the hands of our team members so that
they're not submitting a piece of paper and
a week later getting a report back."
