Construction Tech & Estimating Software Development
Executive Architecture Spec
Milestone-based SOW · 100% Day-1 Title
Eliminating Structural Operational Inefficiencies.
Purpose-built estimating pipelines, submittal workflows, and offline field-sync engines engineered specifically for general contractors, civil engineering teams, and MEP specialty trades.
The Operational Bottlenecks
Manual Takeoff & Estimating Bottlenecks
Estimators spend 20+ hours per bid manually measuring blueprints with digital rulers or spreadsheets, resulting in costly under-bidding, omitted line items, and lost tenders.
Field-to-Office Communication Silos
Foremen, project managers, and trade subcontractors operate across disparate text messages, paper punch lists, and WhatsApp groups, causing severe schedule delays and untracked change orders.
Excessive Per-Seat Licensing on Clunky ERPs
Commercial platforms like Procore, PlanGrid, and Buildertrend charge exorbitant recurring seat fees while forcing rigid workflows that do not match specialized trade operations.
Material Price Volatility & Budget Overruns
Without live supplier distributor API integrations, sudden lumber, concrete, and steel price fluctuations erode contracted profit margins before procurement begins.
Our Custom Engineered Solutions
AI Blueprint Takeoff & Architectural OCR
Custom computer vision pipelines (powered by SmartSite Vision) that automatically ingest multi-page architectural PDFs, segment structural layers, and extract exact linear footage, square footage, and bill-of-materials in seconds.
Real-Time Field-to-Office PWA with Offline Sync
Offline-first mobile applications built with custom SaaS platform architecture enabling superintendents to log daily reports, capture GPS-tagged photos, manage punch lists, and track time without cellular coverage.
Dynamic Bid Estimating & Supplier Price Sync
Automated estimating engines (featured in our BuildBot platform) integrated directly with distributor pricing APIs to calculate material costs, labor rates, and overhead margins with instant quote exports.
Custom Construction ERP & AIA Billing Engine
End-to-end enterprise portals handling progress payments (AIA G702/G703), conditional/unconditional lien waivers, change order approvals, and two-way QuickBooks / Sage Intacct synchronization via custom API engineering.
Custom Systems We Engineer.
Scalable cloud architectures built for high-throughput enterprise operations and regulatory compliance.
Computer Vision Jobsite Hazard & Progress Monitoring
Edge AI and drone video pipelines that cross-reference live site cameras against 4D BIM models to automatically detect progress milestones, PPE compliance, and perimeter security.
Subcontractor Prequalification & Bid Portals
Centralized vendor portals with automated COI (Certificate of Insurance) verification, W-9 tracking, and secure bid-level document sharing with granular role-based access.
Equipment Telematics & Tool Tracking
IoT gateway integrations monitoring heavy equipment runtimes, maintenance scheduling, GPS geo-fencing, and idle fuel waste to maximize fleet efficiency.
Automated Change Order & Dispute Management
Digital audit trails capturing photo evidence, electronic signatures, and automated cost variance notifications to eliminate contractor disputes.
