InEight Releases HD Field Solution to Simplify Construction Crew Planning and Jobsite Data Collection With Mobile Technology

SCOTTSDALE, AZ--(Marketwired - Sep 22, 2015) - InEight Inc., a leading provider of software solutions for project-driven companies, today announced the release of HD Field Solution, a mobility solution that delivers construction project execution alignment and visibility by connecting real-time jobsite activity to the InEight HD suite via a modern tablet interface.

"The HD Field Solution is an important addition to our Hard Dollar project estimating and control solution," said Bill Ponseti, president and CEO of InEight. "Foremen can walk onto the jobsite with a tablet and see exactly what the plan is for the day, then capture and submit critical information at the end of the shift such as timesheets, quantities completed, notes, and more. The HD Field Solution makes it easier than ever for managers, planners and foremen to share information and get the visibility they need to avoid project surprises." 

The HD Field Solution consists of two tightly integrated components:

1. HD Field Manager - project engineers, superintendents and planners can plan daily work for crews, then review daily jobsite performance in this Windows-based program
2. HD Field Mobile - foremen can easily view their work plans and track field progress and timesheets using Android, Apple iOS, and Windows tablets

Key features include:

• Create crew plans for specific shifts - Align daily work assignments with the overall plan
• Track actual hours of all crew members - Collect time cards and drive payroll systems with built-in integration with leading accounting and payroll systems
• Monitor equipment usage - Understand resource utilization for better planning and forecasting
• Record quantities completed - Track task-level performance to update the project's percent complete and earned values
• Add new tasks or modify existing tasks - Respond to real-world situations that require on-the-fly changes to work plans and crew assignments
• Review and approve completed plans - Verify data accuracy with a formal approval process
• Offline mode - Capture field data at disconnected jobsites for later synchronization when a network connection is available
• International support - Allow users to work in the language of their choice, with built-in support for English, Spanish and French
  
  

The HD Field Solution integrates seamlessly with the Hard Dollar platform to provide an end-to-end solution for project estimating, budgeting, field data collection, cost control, forecasting and change management.
