Smart Site Case Study
1. Dash Technologies assisted SmartSite USA to Redesign their
Workforce Management Platform
Case History Info: Roy Ford, Founder & CEO at SmartSite
Business Website URL: https://smartsiteusa.com
Sector: Construction
Company Overview:
SmartSite USA offers a subcontractor overview software system that enables general
contractors to better manage sub-contracted resources for large, labor-intensive
construction projects.
2. Challenge:
CEO Roy Ford was looking for ways to propel the business forward by creating a custom
analytics dashboard that construction industry leaders could leverage to capture, organize,
and track their subcontractor labor resources. He was working with a technology vendor to
build the app but wound up disappointed by the poor user interface, long time frame, and
complex platform. Mid-way through the project he had to start from the scratch and look
for a new vendor.
Solution:
After vetting several technology providers, Roy Ford hired Dash Technologies who guided
her every step of the way to ensure her goals were exceeded. Dash built a custom analytics
dashboard accessible from any smart device. Their solution included a proprietary S.A.F.E™
form application to help sub-contractors filter out unfit candidates and collect real-time
data such as:
Average hours worked by subcontractor and/or associates
Actual subcontractor timeline progress against the projected scheduled timeline
Weather App history
Dash even built an associate safety violation report and a live alert banner that managers
can customize according to their needs.
Results:
“In three-and-a-half months, they built the system from the ground-up based on the
requirements I gave them. It’s amazing what Dash has been able to do in such a short
timeframe and with such a high level of quality. They’ve given us a very user-friendly
application that contractors can embrace. We couldn’t have found a better group to work
with,” says Roy Ford.
The innovative SmartSite dashboard, launching in 2021 will provide:
Actionable data insights and a more holistic view of project resource performance
A scalable and easy-to-use tool for owners, general contractors, managers, and
subcontractors
A reduction in undocumented and cash labor and other undesirable practices
prevalent in the construction industry
Improved management of subcontractor resources
