H.O.M.E.S. Construction Site System

Construction Site Management for Home Builders & Condo Developers

The H.O.M.E.S. Construction Site System is an optional component of the H.O.M.E.S. project management software system, designed to be used at construction site offices to provide access to information provided by the head office, as well as the sales office for the associated project, and to track the completion status of all work for each lot or unit.

The system provides a construction site office with real-time access to only the information pertinent to the construction process. Financial information collected by the main H.O.M.E.S. system is not displayed in the Construction Site System, since it is not considered pertinent or required by a construction department.

The H.O.M.E.S. Construction Site System also offers fully automated production scheduling to automatically generate the construction schedule, or re-schedule automatically when necessary.

The principle of the system is to maximize efficiency by ensuring construction site offices are kept connected and informed of all details pertaining to a project, as well as providing construction completion information back to head office, thereby helping to eliminate errors and omissions in the administration of construction.

• Helps you build faster, avoid costly errors, raise efficiency and profits, and increase customer satisfaction!

• Ensures construction site office is kept up-to-date on all project details.

• Displays all pertinent (non-financial) lot/unit information by project, including colour charts/finishes, floor plans, images etc.

• Tracks work completion status and prints completion certificates automatically when used with the H.O.M.E.S. Purchase Order System. Allows full or partial work completions and automatically relays completion information back to head office to assist the accounts payable department in avoiding duplicate or premature payments.

• Provides read-only access to all construction related information. Only work completion status information may be edited.

• Automatic Production Scheduling! The construction schedule can be automatically generated using customizable templates containing user-definable tasks for which the duration can be revised for each lot/unit. Scheduling takes into consideration the contractor hours per day available, (with hours exception handling for holidays etc,) the availability of necessary resources, prerequisite dependency tasks, lot/unit priority, number of workers/teams available etc. Rescheduling may be done automatically. Scheduled tasks may be reported filtered by contractor, task dates etc. even on Gantt charts!

• Contractors’ production schedules may be automatically distributed via email to contractors using a customizable MS-Word document template. (The emails may also be fully customized.)
• Contractors production schedules may be printed or previewed on-screen using a customizable MS-Word document template.

• Scheduled tasks may also be exported for importing into Google Calendar®.
