GroundWorks

GroundWorks is project management software designed for excavation, subsurface utility engineering, and construction trades. It brings jobs, crews, equipment, test holes, permits, and locate tickets into one centralized platform, configured around how each industry actually works rather than forcing work into generic templates.

The platform addresses the limitations of office-focused project management tools by understanding field operations. It supports configurable job types that capture industry-specific requirements, tracks utility-locate documentation with GPS coordinates and field data, maps test hole locations, manages locate requests from ticket submission through clearance, handles permits with approval tracking and workflow gates that prevent work before paperwork is complete, tracks equipment by category with rates and assignments, logs daily field reports with weather and crew data, and maintains centralized document storage.

GroundWorks serves solo operators and small crews, growing teams managing multiple jobs and equipment, and multi-site operations, adapting to construction, excavation, electrical, mechanical, landscaping, subsurface utility engineering, and general contracting workflows.
