Bringing construction site management into the digital age, WEMAS Absperrtechnik GmbH has launched a groundbreaking app-based solution in collaboration with Mobile2b GmbH. The construction site management system ("BMS") allows for faster, more reliable processes, while reducing costs and increasing operational transparency.
Recognizing the potential of smartphones and tablets, WEMAS decided to innovate its business processes by developing a digital construction site management system. In just three months, Mobile2b created a mobile software solution that integrates smartphone or tablet-based construction site checks with inventory management.
Alexander Moosbrugger, Sales Director D-A-CH at WEMAS, emphasizes:
"We’re giving our customers future-ready technology that not only strengthens their market position but also reinforces WEMAS’s leadership in the industry."
The app guides employees step-by-step through site inspections, offering unparalleled efficiency and accuracy. Key features include:
Customizable Inspection Parameters: Users set up sites and define parameters such as inspection frequency or special operations (e.g., storm response) without needing programming skills.
Real-Time Job Assignments: Employees receive assignments via the app, which includes an optional navigation feature to plan their daily routes effectively.
On-Site Verification: Employees register at the site using NFC tags, which log GPS coordinates for tamper-proof documentation.
Integrated Damage Reporting: Damage can be photographed and documented directly in the app.
Offline Functionality: Data collected offline is automatically uploaded to the company’s IT system when connectivity is restored.
Managers can track site inspections in real-time through a backend dashboard. This system provides insights into task completion, identifies bottlenecks, and ensures accountability. By tracking the duration of inspections, the app also generates performance records and billing data, which can be exported as PDFs.
"For managers, the app provides total oversight and eliminates manual paperwork," says Moosbrugger.
Additionally, the guest account feature enables clients to access inspection records, fostering greater transparency.
The app includes a robust inventory module that ensures the availability of essential components like barricades and cones. The system automatically checks stock levels across multiple warehouses and facilitates rapid reordering if needed. This functionality helps customers:
Determine material needs for upcoming projects.
Allocate resources effectively across warehouses.
Avoid project delays due to inventory shortages.
"Customers always know how many projects they can take on and where adjustments are needed," notes Moosbrugger.
The digital system significantly reduces documentation costs. Traditional paper-based methods involved extensive manual input, archiving, and error-checking, which required dedicated personnel and physical storage. By digitizing these processes, the app:
Eliminates paperwork entirely.
Improves workflows from inspection to billing.
Frees up staff to focus on higher-value tasks.
The construction site management app offers a distinct advantage in the competitive landscape. By adopting this digital solution, customers can:
Achieve faster project turnaround times.
Ensure data accuracy and improved reporting.
Improve client satisfaction with real-time updates and transparency.
As Moosbrugger explains:
"Once customers use the app, their doubts disappear, and it quickly becomes an integral part of their operations."
