More than 75% of civil construction companies here in Australia use pen and paper to record and track daily activities on site. This information then needs to be entered manually into spreadsheets and databases to capture important cost information. Can you imagine that this would still be the way companies operate in 5 or 10 years? – We at Site Diary Pty Ltd don’t - and we want to be the ones that change it! Site Diary is a mobile web app that is used by supervisors and engineers in the civil and engineering construction industries. It is designed specifically to record actual plant and man hours of work done out in the field along with information on materials used, subcontractor activities and progress on site. The app can be accessed via a tablet out in the work field and is designed to make it easy, quick and painless for supervisors to record activities that happen on the work site. The information is then uploaded onto an online server and can be accessed by the management staff that utilise the information to track costs and site progress. This approach addresses the following problems: • Making recording information less painful – by providing an easy to use online site diary. • The need to double enter information – eliminated through synchronisation of data. • Down time for supervisors to fill out paper diaries - The Site Diary is mobile and can be done from the field.
