A Better Way of Field Reporting

Ensuring that a job is completed effectively is not based solely on a finished product; there are lots of factors that need to be considered.  Managing a job requires the collection of field information at every stage throughout the project.

This single task can be a very time consuming process that involves creating hand written reports, which then have to be submitted back to the main office.  This process makes it difficult for construction companies to review different stages in the project life cycle because they do not have immediate access to the data.

Through technology and the use of hh2 Web Services, construction companies can better assess their jobs through web based field reports.  Hh2 Field Reports enables field workers to replace paper with netbooks and tablet PC's.  Valuable job information along with photos and other project -critical data is shared remotely using the web.  Company management is then  able to analyze the daily information in  real-time  and print out the reports using Adobe PDF or Microsoft Excel.



Having field reports is an important component when analyzing project quality and safety.  Incidents and safety issues can be documented instantly.  This information can be very useful in future projects and occurrences of litigation.  With the ability to collect job information from the field in real-time, construction companies can be more effective at identifying performance trends as they occur.

In conclusion, there is no longer a need to fill out handwritten reports … be sure to visit http://www.hh2.com and see how hh2 Field Reports can help your construction company better manage field reporting over the web.
