Mobile technologies can help your building company remain agile and committed to high-quality work. Here are a few different tools and services that can help you.
Modern Tools Can Provide a Big Edge
To help meet modern job site challenges, a number of forward-thinking companies have developed new technologies specifically designed for construction. Here are some of the ways mobile technology can assist builders on the job.
Estimating
Estimating is one of the most critical and time-consuming parts of the bidding process. By providing spreadsheet-style layouts, construction calculator apps like BuildCalc help builders make efficient estimates. They also offer quick conversion tools for volume, area, distance, weight, and angles.
Customer Relations
2-10 Home Buyers Warranty (2-10) offers next-level post-closing customer support to 2-10 Builder Members. With Front Line Warranty Service, builders can better manage important post-closing customer relations for a more holistic customer experience from front to back.
Additionally, tools such as Improveit 360 make customer relationship management much easier for contractors. Builders can leverage tools for centralizing their lead databases, optimizing phone and email marketing, appointment scheduling, and sales. They can also track and manage leads while preventing duplicates.

Building Information Modeling
Modern digital information modeling is an especially useful technology for today’s builders. By allowing them to craft 3D models they can animate and rotate, Autodesk apps make it easier and less expensive to plan projects.
Safety
Modern technology has also made it much easier for builders to meet OSHA’s safety meeting regulations. With the Safety Meeting app, contractors can schedule and document meetings, pull up safety topics, and receive reports about incidents and near-misses.
Staying Ahead of the Competition
Nowadays, mobile devices can assist contractors in virtually any phase of construction, from client acquisition and bookkeeping to making estimates and managing projects. If you aren’t taking advantage of new technologies, now is a great time to start.
