Quality control is a critical function in construction projects. By ensuring that projects are built to specifications, conform with building codes, and meet safety requirements, construction companies can satisfy clients, build a solid reputation, reduce costs, and avoid mistakes and rework.
While quality control in construction can be complicated and time-consuming, the right construction quality control software can help by automating processes and streamlining communication. By managing inspection checklists and punch lists, facilitating communication with subcontractors, and producing reports to track quality improvement, superior software provides tools that bring greater consistency and efficiency to the job of quality control.
As a no-code application development platform, Quickbase offers key capabilities in construction quality control software, and can be easily customized to the requirements of any project and the needs of any team. With Quickbase, construction firms can manage quality processes by creating and adapting software tools – without incurring the cost and delays of traditional development frameworks.
What to look for in construction quality control software
When choosing construction management system software, there are several key features that can ensure your solution will deliver on expectations.
Automation. The right software should automate processes across the board, from documenting deficiencies and producing progress reports to updating checklists and tracking engineering tests. The more steps that can be automated, the more time construction management teams will have to devote to higher value, strategic tasks.
Integration. Construction quality control software should consolidate data from disparate sources and integrate easily with other construction software and back-office systems. This ensures that quality control processes have access to real-time data and can deliver a 360° view of quality processes throughout the business.
Customization. Out-of-the-box quality control software will inevitably be too rigid and too limited to meet the needs of each project, workflow, and construction team. Choosing fully customizable tools ensures that construction quality control software can deliver the exact capabilities that management teams need, both today and tomorrow.
