Why Choose Us
In the high-stakes world of general contracting, where every delay can cascade into lost revenue, our custom KPI dashboards cut through the chaos. We integrate your field management tools, ERP systems, and on-site IoT sensors into a unified platform. No more piecing together spreadsheets after hours. Real-time data flows seamlessly, highlighting bottlenecks before they derail your schedule. Think of it as installing a central command center for your job sites—much like a well-orchestrated build sequence that anticipates every step.

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Informed Decision-Making at Every Job Site
Real-Time Project Visibility
Real-Time Project Visibility: Track KPIs like on-site hours for framing crews and material usage for drywall deliveries live, reducing delays by up to 40%. Contractors report completing kitchen remodels two days ahead of schedule by monitoring tile installation progress, turning tight deadlines into competitive advantages for residential flips.
Optimized Resource Allocation
Optimized Resource Allocation: Dashboards reveal underutilized crews on siding installs and overstocked supplies like roofing shingles, cutting waste by 25%. One firm slashed overtime costs on roofing projects by reallocating teams to high-margin deck additions without hiring extras, based on weekly inventory scans.
Enhanced Client Relationships
Enhanced Client Relationships: Share secure, real-time progress reports on foundation pours and cabinetry installs that build trust and reduce disputes. General contractors see 35% fewer change order fights, as clients get accurate timelines for bathroom overhauls and full-home renovations, including photo-verified milestones.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were chasing shadows on our multi-site custom home builds—spreadsheets everywhere, and we'd miss material shortages for electrical rough-ins until it was too late. Now, the dashboard pings us on low inventory for HVAC installs mid-project, and we've shaved a full week off average timelines for three-bedroom renovations. It's like having an extra foreman who's always watching the numbers on labor and supply runs."
Mike Rivera
Senior Project Manager, Apex Home Builders LLC
"Our team juggled three apps just to track subcontractor bids and punch lists for outdoor patios. After implementing their KPI platform, we caught a billing error on a composite deck project that saved us $8K in overcharged lumber. The real-time insights have made our client walkthroughs a breeze—no more surprises during final inspections for fencing tie-ins."
Sarah Chen
Operations Director, Coastal Renovations Inc.
"Weather delays used to eat into our margins on exterior siding and window installations, but this system forecasts impacts based on site data from rain gauges and crew logs. Last season, we adjusted schedules proactively for a $150K attached garage conversion, avoiding a 10-day setback and keeping it on budget despite two storms. Finally, tech that gets construction realities like soil compaction delays."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this KPI platform integrate with my existing tools like Buildertrend or CoConstruct?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations that pull data from your preferred platforms without disrupting workflows. For instance, we'll sync job schedules from Buildertrend directly into the dashboard, updating crew assignments in real-time as changes occur on-site. Our custom API connections ensure data accuracy, reducing manual entries that often lead to errors in tracking drywall deliveries or electrical rough-ins. Unlike superficial links that break during updates, our engineered solutions maintain reliability even as your software evolves. Setup typically takes 2-4 weeks, with full testing to confirm seamless flow for your general contracting operations.
Can the dashboards handle multiple simultaneous projects, like ongoing remodels and new constructions?
Absolutely—our enterprise-grade architecture is designed for scalability, supporting dozens of concurrent projects without lag. Imagine overseeing a full-home renovation in one tab while monitoring a commercial addition in another; the platform aggregates KPIs across all sites, highlighting cross-project efficiencies like shared equipment usage. We've helped contractors manage up to 50 active jobs, reducing oversight time by 40%. It starts with a baseline setup for your current volume, then scales effortlessly as you bid on more contracts, ensuring no bottlenecks during peak building seasons.
What specific KPIs are tracked for general contractors?
We tailor KPIs to your operations, focusing on home services essentials like crew utilization rates (aiming for 85% efficiency), material cost variance (alerting at 10% over budget), project completion timelines versus estimates, subcontractor compliance scores, and client satisfaction metrics from post-job surveys. For a roofing project, this might include shingle waste percentages or weather-adjusted progress bars. Our dashboards visualize these in customizable widgets, backed by industry benchmarks—such as the 22-day average for kitchen remodels—to help you spot deviations early and adjust bids for future work.
Is the platform secure for sharing data with clients and subs?
Security is paramount in construction, where sensitive site plans and budgets are involved. We implement role-based access controls, ensuring clients see only progress photos and timelines for their bathroom upgrade, while subs access punch lists without viewing full financials. Data is encrypted end-to-end, compliant with standards like GDPR and construction-specific regs for permits. We've audited our systems to prevent breaches, which affect 30% of SMB contractors annually. Plus, audit logs track every view, giving you peace of mind during disputes over change orders or delays.
How much customization is involved, and what's the timeline?
Every dashboard is 100% custom-built to match your workflows, from color-coding electrical vs. plumbing phases to integrating custom fields for permit statuses. The process begins with a 1-week audit of your needs, followed by 4-6 weeks of development and testing—faster for simpler setups. We've delivered for a contractor tracking 20 remodels in under a month, incorporating unique metrics like energy-efficient material ROI. Post-launch, we provide ongoing tweaks to adapt as your business grows, ensuring the system remains a strategic asset rather than a static tool.
Will this help with bidding more accurately on future jobs?
Yes, by leveraging historical data from past projects, our AI analyzes patterns like labor hours for foundation work or cost overruns on custom cabinetry, enabling precise bid forecasts. Contractors using our platform report 25% more accurate estimates, winning 15% more bids without underpricing. The dashboard generates reports comparing actuals vs. bids, refining your pricing model over time. For example, if delays from inspections averaged 3 days last year, it factors that into future quotes for similar home additions, directly boosting your win rate and margins.
