Streamline your construction operations with GoFormz

In the construction world, efficiency and accuracy are paramount. The adoption of digital forms has revolutionized the industry, providing significant benefits over traditional paper forms. Online forms not only enhance construction safety but also streamline communication, elevate professionalism, and reduce the inefficiencies associated with paper-based processes. By leveraging digital forms, construction companies can ensure real-time data collection, minimize errors, and promote a culture of safety and accountability on job sites. In this blog post, we will explore the top three construction use cases for GoFormz, highlighting how digital forms can transform your operations and drive success in every aspect of the construction industry.

Collaborate with Subcontractors

Collaborating with subcontractors on a job site can be streamlined and more efficient with GoFormz. For instance, using a digital hot work permit form, subcontractors can easily complete and submit their permits directly from their mobile devices. This immediate access ensures that all necessary safety protocols are followed without delay, and the real-time submission of forms enhances communication and accountability. By eliminating the need for paper forms, the process becomes faster and more reliable, reducing the risk of misplaced documents and ensuring that all safety measures are thoroughly documented and accessible to everyone involved in the project. Additionally, once completed, forms can be automatically routed to specific project folders in Acumatica, Procore, Google Drive, and other platforms. With access to an open API, you can ensure that information from subcontractors is seamlessly directed to the necessary destinations, providing real-time data access and a streamlined flow of information.

Tracking Equipment

GoFormz can significantly enhance the way construction companies track equipment thanks to some of our unique features. By incorporating QR codes onto equipment, workers can easily access and update equipment records from their mobile devices, ensuring that information is always current and accurate. When a piece of equipment needs maintenance or inspection, scanning the QR code can instantly bring up its history and status, allowing for timely updates and actions. This not only elevates safety by ensuring that only well-maintained equipment is in use but also streamlines maintenance processes, reducing downtime and improving overall operational efficiency. The ability to share and access these forms online fosters better communication and accountability, ensuring that everyone on the job site has the information they need to maintain a safe and productive working environment.

Manage Payroll

GoFormz can greatly simplify payroll management within construction operations by digitizing and automating the payroll process. For example, contractors can submit their work hours, invoices, and other necessary documentation through customized digital forms on their mobile devices. These forms can be automatically routed to the payroll department, ensuring timely and accurate processing, eliminating the need for manual data entry, reducing the risk of errors and delays. Additionally, GoFormz can integrate with accounting software, streamlining the invoicing process and ensuring that contractors are paid promptly. 

Construction Customer Use-Cases

There are numerous ways GoFormz can enhance your construction operations. Here are some key examples of how current GoFormz users are leveraging the platform across their job sites.

• The Conlan Company: This globally recognized contractor needed a digital form solution integrated with Procore to centralize data collection and facilitate seamless collaboration between subcontractors and owners. Utilizing GoFormz integrated with Procore, automation, and QR codes, The Conlan Company achieves significant time savings, centralizes record-keeping, streamlines communication, and elevates processes and productivity.

• Takitimu North Link: The environmental team for the Takitimu North Link Project faced difficulties with on-site reporting when using traditional paper forms, which were neither efficient nor sustainable. After turning to GoFormz, the Takitimu North Link team can now capture data, take photos, and fill out forms in real time using mobile devices. This digital transformation not only eliminates the inefficiencies resulting from paper-based processes but also provides a streamlined and sustainable solution for their on-site reporting needs.

• A-C Electric Company: A-C Electric Company’s in-house form solution was faced with a few key limitations, notably its dependence on internet connectivity for form completion. This resulted in A-C Electric Company staff having to redo forms whenever an internet connection was lost. Additionally, field personnel were required to complete certain forms on paper, requiring manual phone-in submissions to centralize data. Leveraging SQL and Data Sources, A-C Electric Company digitized and streamlined their approval workflows, collaboration, and communication. The ability to fill out and complete forms offline empowers field personnel to digitally complete documentation even from remote locations, ensuring real-time access to data and effectively centralizing data management across the entire organization.

Whether you want to use digital forms to digitize a construction invoice template or a collection of safety documentation, GoFormz is here to enhance your construction team’s digital transformation process.
