WorkMax is a cloud-based mobile workforce platform that collects live field data in one app to provide actionable insights into labor, job costs, production, equipment inventory and assignment, and field reporting. WorkMax’s integrated platform has unique workflows to prompt employees to enter critical field data on clock in or out or on task change to empower businesses to confidently make better decisions with accurate field data.

The WorkMax platform includes:

WorkMax TIME provides accurate labor answers on any mobile device for any size construction business. WorkMax TIME tracks employee hours, tasks, and production with live field data to simplify job costing to complete projects on time and on budget. Due to COVID risks, more job sites went paperless and chose WorkMax TIME. Features include:
-Patented face recognition and GPS to eliminate time theft
-Rear-facing camera option for socially distant face recognition
-Live labor and production tracking with or without service
-Flexibility to collect and allocate labor costs with three workflow options
-Job-specific, task-specific, or prevailing wage pay codes for accurate payroll

WorkMax FORMS simplifies paperless collecting and sharing of data for safety, daily log reports, change orders, work orders and more. Forms are the cornerstone of COVID-19 safety by providing automatic employee health screenings on clock in and automated workflows to present COVID training videos with esignatures for safety training documentation. Mobile forms replaced in person group safety training. WorkMax FORMS help construction leaders to:
-Prompt employees to complete required safety forms, equipment maintenance forms, or employee feedback questions on clock in or out to collect accurate and timely field data
-Trigger follow up forms based on responses to expedite critical business data collection.
-Get the right forms to the right people to drive efficiency

WorkMax ASSETS manages tools and equipment. At any point, anyone can see who has checked out an asset, its last known location and usage to eliminate loss. With WorkMax ASSETS, contractors can:
-Clock in, check out equipment, and track maintenance in the same app
-Keep inventory accurate and projects on schedule with mobile-to-mobile equipment transfers
-Reduce ghost assets and insurance overpayments for lost equipment

In the midst of a global pandemic and the worst economic recession since the Great Depression, there were construction business closures, projects shut downs, project cancellations and project delays. WorkMax acted quickly to update the platform so users could meet the requirements to keep their job sites safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. WorkMax FORMS revenue grew 66% from 2019 to 2020 and total revenue for all WorkMax solutions grew by 43% with a net revenue retention of 85% for 2020. Countless operations around the country were able to remain open and productive thanks to the platform’s ability to track, manage, train and screen everyone on the job site to reduce COVID risks.

 

Users regularly attest to the effectiveness of the WorkMax platform and how it has changed their businesses for the better.

“We cut our field employees’ labor cost by $141,440 with WorkMax,” said Amber Madrigal, Manager of Operational Excellence at Archer Mechanical. “WorkMax not only reduced our labor costs significantly; it helped us create more accurate bids and reduce our administrators payroll processing time by 75%”

Nayland Scaffold eliminated paper time cards and forms by switching to WorkMax TIME and FORMS. The required fields, multiple choice pick lists, and Crew Clock IN/OUT features available in WorkMax FORMS and WorkMax TIME had the most significant impact on time savings and accuracy. The company reported saving $172,476 and an ROI of 2926%.
