App summary

No more paper in the field! 👷 🚧 👊 Work faster and smarter with this easy-to-use yet robust app designed for the heavy civil construction workforce. The HCSS Field app is the mobile component of HCSS HeavyJob and HCSS Safety software. It helps crews easily log events in the field, understand job performance, work safely, and stay connected to the office.


CAPTURE FIELD EVENTS


Collect and share better data with less effort (requires HCSS HeavyJob).

✔️ Time Cards: We make time cards super easy! Save hours each month by ditching pen and paper for an app foremen actually want to use. All it takes is a few taps to enter time and production, even without an Internet connection.
✔️ Diary: Record weather with one tap from GPS, tag days with searchable keywords, and note events with speech-to-text.
✔️ Photos: Take photos, draw notes on them, and share with the office.
✔️ Materials and Subs: Track materials received and installed on site to improve invoicing accuracy and boost timely payments.
✔️ Forms (tablet only): Collect owner-requested info using PDF forms, or fill in any form custom-built by the office.
✔️ Multilingual: We support English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French.


STAY ON TRACK


Keep the job on schedule and within budget every day.

💲 Daily Analysis: Don’t wait until it’s too late. Know how you did at the end of each day so you can make the proper adjustments tomorrow.
💲 Job Analysis: Get the big picture as well as the details. Review your overall job health, drill in to identify factors causing the biggest impact, and take action.


WORK SAFELY


Put safety where it matters most—in the hands of those in the field (requires HCSS Safety).

Meetings: Hold meetings, record attendance, and capture digital signatures. Use our library of 1,000+ templates influenced by OSHA, the AGC, DOD, and Army Corps of Engineers, or access your company’s custom-built templates.
Observations: See a hazard? Report it to keep everyone safe on the job. See a stellar example of safety? We make it easy to provide positive reinforcement, too.
Near Miss: Capture near misses in real time so your safety team can develop timely training and prevent incidents before they occur.
Incidents (tablet only): Report incidents faster and with more accuracy. Send reports directly to the office, where they can be easily referenced at any time for OSHA and insurance purposes.
Inspections: Perform inspections in the field with ease by using our robust library or accessing your company’s custom-built library.
JHA/AHA/JSA: We’ll step you through each job hazard analysis. Use our pre-built templates or access custom-built templates that are specific to your job.
Skills and Certs: Always put the right person on the job when you have instant access to crew qualifications, documentation, and expiration dates.


CONNECT WITH YOUR TEAM


Communicate with your project team without leaving the app. Chat with other users in the field or in the office to get answers quickly and efficiently.

Doing anything on this app(at least with iPad) is a nightmare. Every minute, the app freezes and takes upwards to 2 minutes to unfreeze. It takes so long to input hours and notes. Its extra irritating considering im already working 10-14 hours a day. Now I have to spend 2 hours doing something that should take 20 minutes. Ive fallen asleep waiting for it to unfreeze and missed deadlines. Horrible experience. I wrote this while waiting for it to unfreeze, thats how bad it is.
