General Contractors

Coordinate every sub. Keep the paper trail. Bill every dollar.

A general contractor's job is other people's work — and proving what happened when someone asks. Field PM puts sub reporting, RFIs, submittals, change orders, drawing control, job costing, and AIA billing in one system, so the record builds itself while the job is being built. Same core capabilities as Procore, at roughly half the price and no annual contract.

→You find out what a sub did yesterday by calling them
→RFIs and submittals stall with no log of who has the ball
→Crews build from a superseded drawing
→Change orders get performed but not billed
→Sub invoices get approved without checking them against the contract
→Closeout means a week of chasing photos, sign-offs, and paperwork
01

Know what every sub did, every day

Subcontractors file their own daily report from a phone — manpower, work performed, delays, and photos — at no cost to you or to them. Your superintendent's report and your foremen's reports sit beside it on the same project, so the daily picture of the job is one page instead of six phone calls.

02

A paper trail that keeps itself

RFIs, submittals, transmittals, change orders, and meeting minutes each have a numbered log with status and ball-in-court. Drawings and specifications carry revisions, so the current set is the one in the field and the superseded ones are still on file. When a dispute comes up eight months later, the answer is a search, not a box in storage.

03

Control the subcontract, not just the sub

Send subcontracts for e-signature, then track each sub's invoices against their contract value and approved changes. Purchase orders and vendor invoices post to the same budget, so committed cost and actual cost are visible on the cost code before the money is gone.

04

Bill everything you are owed

Approved change orders flow into the schedule of values, and AIA-style G702/G703 pay applications bill straight from the budget with percent complete and retainage. The extra scope you performed shows up on the next pay app instead of at final accounting.

05

See a losing job in week 3

Manhours from the daily reports roll into cost codes automatically. Productivity by cost code, projected cost at completion, an S-curve, and a lookahead schedule show a code drifting while there is still time to recover it — and roll up across every project in your portfolio.

06

Closeout that is already done

QA/QC inspections, the punch list, safety records, closeout items, and the Job Book accumulate as the work happens. By the time the job wraps, the turnover package is assembled and exportable — not a week of collating binders.

FAQ — Field PM for General Contractors

Can Field PM replace Procore for a GC?+

For most general contractors, yes — it covers the daily-report workflow, job costing, RFIs, submittals, change orders, drawing control, QA/QC, safety, and AIA billing that the large majority of Procore customers actually use, at about half the price with no annual contract. Where Procore wins is enterprise preconstruction and BIM; if those are core to how you work, weigh that.

Do my subcontractors have to buy anything?+

No. Subcontractors, foremen, QA/QC officers, and safety officers are always free and unlimited. A sub gets a login that lets them file their daily report on your project. You pay only for licensed office and PM seats, which is usually 20–30% of headcount.

How do you keep crews off superseded drawings?+

Drawings and specifications are stored with revisions. Uploading a new revision makes it the current one and keeps the earlier revisions on file, so the field opens the current set and the history is still there when someone asks what changed.

Does it do AIA progress billing?+

Yes — G702/G703-style pay applications with schedule of values, percent complete, retainage, and approved change orders, exported as a branded PDF for the owner.

How fast can we get started?+

Most GCs set up their first project in an afternoon and import projects, employees, cost codes, RFIs, and change orders by CSV. There is a 30-day free trial with no credit card, and we will load your data for you if you ask.
