Track hours by worker, cost code, and task directly from the field. Route timesheets through approval before they hit payroll, allocate labor costs to the right budget lines, and sync with your ERP — so your job cost reports reflect what actually happened on site.
A framing crew clocks 40 hours. Half of it gets coded to the wrong phase. By the time accounting catches it, the labor budget is off and nobody knows where the hours actually went.
Paper cards come in late, get rubber-stamped, and go straight to the payroll clerk. Your super never reviewed them. Overtime slips through. Errors become checks you can't take back.
You know your total payroll number. You don't know which project, which phase, or which cost code absorbed it. Job cost reports are guesswork until the accountant catches up.
Buildend puts labor cost visibility where it belongs — in the hands of the people running the job. From the first clock-in to the final payroll export, every hour is captured, coded, approved, and connected to the budget.
Every hour logged gets assigned to a cost code and project phase at the point of entry. Labor costs land in the right budget line automatically — no re-coding in the back office after the fact.
Break time down beyond the cost code. Track hours by specific task or work package so your PMs know exactly where labor is being consumed and where a phase is running long.
Route timesheets to the superintendent or PM for review before they move to payroll. Catch errors, flag unapproved overtime, and send back corrections without phone calls — all timestamped in the system.
See real-time labor cost by worker, crew, cost code, and project. Compare actual hours and cost against your original labor budget so you know weeks before closeout whether a phase is over.
Approved timesheets export directly to Sage 300, Sage 100, QuickBooks Desktop, or QuickBooks Online. No re-entry, no spreadsheet handoffs — hours flow from field approval to payroll with one export.
Workers clock in and out directly from the Buildend mobile app on iOS or Android. No time cards, no call-ins, no end-of-week scramble to reconstruct the week.
