THE PROBLEM
On lagging jobs, small communication gaps cause big delays. Snags aren’t logged, RFIs sit unanswered, and drawings move between teams without the latest revision reaching site. Progress on heating, H&CWS, Supply Air slows, while rework and wasted labour eat into margins. Without a clear link between site and office, insulation projects quickly fall behind schedule and profit slips away.
THE SOLUTION
Site Commander connects site and office, giving insulation contractors real-time visibility of every job. Snags, RFIs, photos, and drawing markups are logged on site and shared instantly, so teams always work from the latest information.
Every issue is tracked with burn-down visibility, making it clear what’s open, resolved, or overdue. From lagging H&CWS to cladding plantrooms, Site Commander keeps insulation projects moving smoothly, on time, and profitable.
