The back-and-forth communication between site staff and backoffice personnel is key for a construction company to deliver a project on time, and with quality. The COVID-19 pandemic, however, dealt a major blow to this collaborative workflow, limiting the capabilities of the construction crew. With an exclusive focus to help builders execute plans and adjust their operations to the new normal, Fieldwire, a jobsite management solution provider, offers a platform that allows contractors to maintain an adequate headcount with the right connectivity throughout the firm and jobsite. Fieldwire enables building companies to monitor every person on-site, allowing general and subcontractors to deliver the right plans to the foreman and field workers. Contractors with the capability to oversee the project remotely can assure that buildings are made according to the latest schematics and avoid severe losses due to miscommunication between the various stakeholders.

As site crews must stay up-to-date and receive accurate information, Fieldwire ensures that any changes to a plan are delivered to them automatically.

The foreman can compare drawings to view any differences and assure that a project is complete according to the right specifications. Fieldwire also empowers skilled or specialist personnel such as mechanical, electrical, or civil sub-contractors to track the progress of a project, further improving the quality of operation. For clients utilizing Fieldwire’s platform, the process of tracking and reporting allows them to save time while submitting the dayend report to a general contractor.

Fieldwire allows general contractors working off-site to monitor every aspect of a construction project and increase the precision with which they work. While a major part of being a GC is to effectively communicate with their subordinates, they must also make sure that the information is delivered to the right person on-site. “Our focus is to enable efficient jobsite management and deliver the content into the hands of the foreman, or even the skilled professionals that require the information to complete a project with unmatched quality and accuracy,” expresses Yves Frinault, Founder and CEO at Fieldwire.

As construction companies begin returning to normalcy and are deploying new technology for construction management, Fieldwire will continue to deploy a ‘jobsite first focus’ to empower users with a holistic view of their projects. “Our focus is on the execution of a plan rather than just the plan itself,” comments Frinault. To eliminate any possibilities of miscommunication between the back-office and site personnel, Fieldwire is adding a module to its jobsite management platform that will allow back-office staff to directly enter information and documents into the system. “The recent shift of contractors to a more digitized operational workflow has not only allowed us to grow but also to rebuild the technology from the ground up, in terms of understanding the changes happening around a job site and then delivering the solution based on a contractors requirement,” says Frinault. As back-office and other key staff continue to work remotely, Fieldwire will also focus on adding more off-site operations to its platform in fully closing the gap between the boardroom, off-site staff, engineers table and field-crew members. With a plan to completely overhaul the construction technology industry, Fieldwire is on a constant quest to physically identify changes that are happening to the plan of a project site and design a solution that is up-to-date in solving any issue that could arise.
