Three sites on the go and you’re the only one who knows what’s happening on all of them.

Where a small firm’s week goes.

1. The problem

   You spend the morning ringing round to find out what got done.

   One lad says the footings are poured, another says they’re waiting on the pump. You only find out who’s right when you drive over.

   With Banksman

   Set the tasks for each site from your phone. The lads tick them off and add a photo, so you can see the job moving without leaving the one you’re stood on.

   • Tasks with photo proof
   • Photo library
2. The problem

   Friday’s hours turn into Monday’s argument.

   Hours written on a scrap of paper, texted late, or just remembered. Then someone’s short and it’s your word against theirs.

   With Banksman

   Everyone logs their hours against the site on the day. You approve them, or query them with a reason and they fix it. It’s grouped by week ending, and the CSV goes straight to whoever does your wages.

   • Timesheets
3. The problem

   Orders get placed by text and lost somewhere between the merchant and the site.

   Nobody’s sure if the lintels and the steel were ordered, who ordered them, or when the wagon’s turning up.

   With Banksman

   The lads request what they need on the app with a needed-by date. You approve it and add the supplier and order ref, and everyone can see it go from ordered to delivered, with a photo of the drop.

   • Material requests

• Tasks with photo proof

  The manager sets the task for each site, with a trade, priority and due date. The worker ticks it off and adds the photo to prove it. Filter by site, trade, status or priority.

• Photo library

  Every photo is stamped with the upload time from our server, the site, the task and who took it. Location is optional, set by the company.

• Timesheets

  Daywork hours or price work per site or plot. The manager approves or queries with a reason, the worker fixes and resubmits. Grouped by week ending, CSV export, archived when paid.

• Material requests

  The worker asks for the item, quantity, unit and needed-by date. Tracked from requested to approved, ordered, dispatched and delivered (or declined), with supplier, order ref, expected delivery and a delivery photo.

• Drawings for every site

  Drawings on every phone, labelled by version, sorted by site and downloadable on site.

• Site group chats and direct messages

  A group chat for every site, plus direct messages, kept apart from your personal phone chats.

• Manager dashboard

  Who’s on site now, hours waiting for approval, deliveries on the way and how far along every site is, on one screen.

• Your logo and colours

  Upload your logo and app icon and pick your colours from the settings, with a readability check as you go. The lads see your name, not ours.

• Installs like an app

  Add it to the home screen and it opens like any other app. No app store needed.

• Labour cost per job

  Approved hours times each worker’s rate, so you can see what a job is costing in labour.

• Site sign-in and sign-out

  Sign in and out with a QR poster on site, with an optional location check at that moment only, and a fire roll call of who’s on site right now.

• Health and safety documents with sign-off

  Inductions, RAMS and safety procedures on every phone. Each worker reads and signs with their finger, a new revision asks everyone to sign again, and you see who has signed what.
