One list of who you have, and where they are
A crew directory with the trade each person works, their hourly rate and whether they are currently active — connected to the schedule they are assigned to and the hours they log against each job.
The problem
On a small builder's site the crew list lives in one person's phone. Who is qualified for what, who costs what, and who is on which job this week are three answers held in one head, and none of them survive that person taking a week off.
How BuildersBridge solves it
Crew directory with trade and rate
Name, trade, contact details and hourly rate per person, with inactive members kept rather than deleted so historical job costs stay intact.
Scheduled across jobs
Assign crew to work on the schedule so the week reads as a plan rather than a set of separate job calendars.
Hours and cost per person
Time logged by each crew member rolls into the job it belongs to, so the cost of a person on a project is a number you can look up.
Utilisation you can report on
The crew productivity report shows utilisation by member and exports to CSV, which is the answer to whether you are actually short-handed or just badly scheduled.
Frequently asked questions
- What is crew management software?
- A directory of the people who do the work, connected to the schedule they are assigned to and the hours they log, so who is available, what they cost and where they are this week are one answer rather than three.
- Does deleting a crew member remove their history?
- Crew members are marked inactive rather than deleted, so hours they logged and the job costs those hours produced stay intact.
- Can crew see their own schedule?
- Crew is a role in the platform with its own access, so a crew member sees the work assigned to them without seeing the whole business.
- Does it handle certifications and tickets?
- Not as structured fields on the crew member. Certificates can be stored as project or company documents, and subcontractor insurance and WCB expiry are tracked on the vendor record rather than here.
