Smartapp.com^Ⓡ is transforming jobsites into smartsites with embedded technology that solves real-world problems on time and at the right price. In the construction industry, success hinges on unifying tasks, from initial planning to final reporting. Stakeholders and on-site teams must also be on the same page from day one, and collaborate while following a comprehensive plan to drive efficient project execution. Smartapp streamlines the journey to achieve this through its construction and operations platform with integrated AI.

Built with a ‘one input, many outputs’ philosophy, it eliminates redundancies and enhances jobsite productivity through innovative modules that are seamlessly integrated to support all stages of the built environment from construction through operations & maintenance of a single project or an entire portfolio of projects.

“We unify all construction processes and related operations into a single, unified platform,” says James Norris, VP.

In a market with escalating software costs and point solutions, Smartapp distinguishes itself by offering a comprehensive solution that eliminates the need for multiple costly platforms. As a privately held company free from external pressures, it maintains competitive pricing—offering twice the functionality at half the cost of many competitors.

Every day, it helps leading Engineering News-Record (ENR) Top 400 companies—including top general contractors, trades and owners—to reduce up to 83 percent of their manual entry work.

An All-In-One Platform for Smarter Construction

Intuitive and straightforward, the platform reduces the learning curve for jobsite teams that often face challenges when using multiple disconnected tools. It addresses the diverse needs of all project stakeholders, becoming the key driver for consistent growth.

Everything starts with what happens in the field; and allowing that field progress to easily and automatically update the schedule, safety forms, pay applications and so on leads to the most accurate project data possible because Smartapp is built for the field. It can be used online or offline for those pesky environments where you don’t have good wifi or cell signal which we found vital for the construction industry. Smartapp’s PLANNER module ensures team alignment with reliable scheduling and clear communication. Aligning with it is the Smartapp SAFETY module that safeguards workers and operations by enabling real-time safety compliance through automated safety workflows. Meanwhile, the Smartapp FIELD module allows users to view drawings, manage RFIs, handle submittals, view 3D models, review laser scans and even capture and store photos. Complementing these competencies is the Smartapp FINANCE module, which supports cost tracking and is imperative in helping users manage bids, draft contracts and navigate shifts in the budget at the project and company levels.

Taking it further, Smartapp provides a labor tracking feature that makes it easy for stakeholders to monitor who is on-site, how long they’ve been there and whether their presence aligns with safety protocols. At the same time, the platform’s performance tracking competency empowers leadership to evaluate key metrics such as cash flow, safety and timelines, ensuring the project stays on track and meets its objectives.

An overarching feature powering all Smartapp capabilities is its no-code, low-code engine. It empowers clients with a drag-and-drop AppStudio^TM that allows them to modify workflows in minutes without interacting with or understanding underlying code. This adaptability ensures users adjust their processes swiftly, maintaining operational excellence with minimal effort. In essence, Smartapp helps users glide through their daily tasks without memorizing complex procedures.

Smartapp consolidates these capabilities into one unified system that construction companies can use to operate efficiently, maintain safety, control costs and ultimately achieve profitability.

Modular Flexibility that Makes All the Difference

Beyond software, Smartapp provides impactful in-house hardware, from GPS antennas and RTLS systems to attendance tracking and access management solutions, to further streamline jobsite operations. These offerings are actively used across projects. A notable example is the safety kiosk, which can be installed at jobsite entrances to streamline attendance tracking and instantly flag safety concerns. This system has proven invaluable across numerous construction sites, reducing administrative workloads while ensuring safety standards are consistently upheld.
Smartapp also integrates augmented reality into its platform, enabling teams to visualize underground utilities and avoid costly errors like cutting into electrical or fiber optic lines. By simply holding up a mobile device, workers can see real-time data, dramatically improving safety and reducing delays. By embedding advanced functionalities directly into the platform, Smartapp eliminates the need for teams to switch between multiple tools and enables them to operate with peak efficiency.

Smartapp’s hardware and software solutions are backed by the optional Jobsite BOARD, a mobile 86-inch touchscreen that serves as an on-site command center. Relocating it across different areas of the job site allows team members to access up-to-date project data, view 3D models and stay in sync with their off-site counterparts without returning to a central office. Whether for a small company or one operating on a $30 billion scale with complex regulations, the Jobsite BOARD is a game-changer for fast-moving projects that require rapid access to information.

Transforming Construction Jobsites with AI

Smartapp delivers a user-friendly experience that enhances productivity, safeguards work sites and improves project outcomes. To achieve this, AI is embedded in the platform, offering a high level of automation and predictive insight. With AI at its core, Smartapp predicts future schedules by analyzing historical performance, offering labor and time estimates that optimize resource allocation. For example, it helps project managers fine-tune their schedules to prevent bottlenecks, saving valuable time and ensuring smoother project execution. It is important to note that AI can easily be “toggled off” for security reasons depending on the contract type, removing the fear of determining whether or not Smartapp will meet the security requirements for any project type.

AI also enhances safety management by analyzing images to monitor potential hazards and other unsafe conditions. It even streamlines communication with features like multilingual support and automatic meeting summaries, which convert conversations into actionable items. Equally impressive is AI’s role in improving cost control. Leveraging historical data from similar projects to recommend budget structures saves clients weeks of manual work and substantially reduces costs.

Ultimately, Smartapp’s AI strategy is designed to provide tangible value by automating routine tasks and equipping clients with tools that enhance decision-making and project outcomes. Integrating AI across all modules enables construction companies to operate more efficiently, safely and profitably while maintaining an intuitive and straightforward user experience.

Smartapp is revolutionizing the industry by offering an all-in-one platform that seamlessly integrates AI and modular flexibility to empower teams in completing projects efficiently, safely and within budget. Made evident by the ENR companies that rely on it, Smartapp’s impact in helping on- and off-site construction teams deliver complex projects on time and with fewer errors is only set to grow.
