There’s a lot more to construction work than just — well, constructing. Contractors and project managers are also responsible for meeting deadlines, construction standards, and safety regulations.
Construction management apps enable construction firms to collect and share information from job sites in real time so they can stay on schedule and in compliance.
By leveraging mobile technology, construction workers can spend less time on paperwork and more time on the high-value work that they’re trained for. And construction management apps — particularly on a robust platform with SAML SSO and audit logs (like Fulcrum) — give project managers more visibility and control over job site processes.
From access floors to zone valves, you can easily build a construction app for any type of inspection or reporting with Fulcrum’s drag-and-drop custom form builder. But to get you started, here are five construction app templates that every firm should download.
Asbestos Inspection App
One of the biggest risks to construction workers is exposure to asbestos, which can increase the risk of developing lung cancer. Download this app to indicate areas where asbestos is present to ensure contractors are protected from inhalation during demolition.
Building Inspection Checklist
Use this building inspection checklist to conduct a general overview of existing or new construction, including HVAC and electrical systems, even in areas without wifi or cellular connectivity. Document deficiencies that need attention and report inspection results to managers and other stakeholders.
Construction Equipment Inspection App
Download this construction equipment inspection app to conduct detailed checks of tractor-dozers, loaders, and excavators regularly. Maintain inspection and maintenance logs, noting when replacement parts should be ordered. This ensures continuous service of all machinery.
Construction Safety Audit
Did you know that 20% of worker deaths in the United States occur in the construction industry? Use this construction safety checklist to report hazardous materials, unsafe working conditions or misuse of equipment, including photo and video documentation.
Roof Inspection App
Use this roof inspection app to evaluate and document a roof’s condition based on materials, geometry, age, and damage. Take photos of damaged areas to ensure proper materials are ordered and timely reconstruction is completed.
Once downloaded, use these templates as is, modify them to fit your project, or find inspiration for other apps. With your Fulcrum subscription, you can build an unlimited number of custom apps for various projects.
Plus: Not only is the Fulcrum platform enterprise-ready, it’s user-friendly at every level. In fact, you can get your teams up and running in less than 15 minutes!
