How Fulcrum optimizes construction field operations

Eliminate costly rework

Validate conformance to plan specifications as work is performed to spot and correct issues early. Inspect materials as they come in, perform checks of jobs in progress, and examine and approve work as it moves from one phase to the next for consistent quality – all in real time.

Optimize safety and reduce EMR

Ensure site-wide adherence to safety procedures with intuitive digital inspection processes that go beyond checklists with easy-to-use picklists, photos, and references. Avoid confusion by showing only the steps needed based on current conditions. Reduce accident risk and lower your EMR.

Make quality your brand

Track inspections, issues, and remediation in real time to provide company-wide visibility into quality initiatives. Give everyone a stake in quality by letting anyone report issues simply by scanning QR codes. Easily share quality data with prospects, customers, contractors, and other stakeholders.

Demonstrate OSHA compliance

Save time on regulatory reporting with data that is easily accessed, collated, and shared. Prove that your team follows safety procedures, your worksite is OSHA-compliant, and ensure you have all the data you need readily available in case of a rapid response investigation or OSHA inspection.
