Most builders run the business twice: once on the job site, and again at the kitchen table at night. ConstructionFront is being built to do the office work as the job happens.
Construction software exists, but it is a second job too: someone has to keep feeding it. In a small company, that someone is the owner.
A missed call can be the next job, and it calls the next builder.
Then it comes back for a missing photo, invoice, or lien waiver, and the money arrives late.
Some never become a signed, billed change order.
If at all, and the same losing job gets bid the same way next spring.
Information goes in as a side effect of work you already do: a call, a photo, a voice note, an invoice.
Calls and messages answered, leads captured, and site visits booked.
Draw requests and pay applications assembled with their backup and lien waivers.
Job cost, change orders, lien waivers, and subcontractor payments kept current as the work happens.
A record of who approved what, and at what cost, that holds up with the lender, the homeowner, and the subs.
The system does the paperwork and proposes. You decide. Nothing that touches money is committed until you approve it, with the cost in front of you.
The commercial-grade back office runs today in our test environment.
Everything else on this page is in development.
We're starting with a small group of Virginia builders who want the office work off their plate and will tell us what works. Founding builders get a direct line to the people building it and a say in what comes first.
