HCSS’ Mobile Apps for collecting and reviewing construction field data has been named as a Top Rollout by Better Roads magazine. The Top Rollouts appeared in the December issue of the publication.

The magazine’s editors researched many companies to identify the market’s outstanding products. They wrote, “We looked for ingenuity, for engineering boldness and excellence, the wow factor, evidence of critical thinking and evidence that people had gone out of their way to address problems or advance techniques.” They continued to say, “It is a way for us to acknowledge some of the industry leaders, some of the companies, some of the engineers and designers who did something special to bring us outstanding products.”

These HCSS Mobile Apps can be run anywhere using iPhones^®, iPads^® and Android^™-based phones and tablets. Contractors can record an entire time card including diaries, photographs and cost-coded employee and equipment hours, as well as production quantities, and transmit it electronically to the office. These apps integrate with HCSS’s back-end databases, which allow them to integrate with more than 40 accounting and payroll systems, eliminating double-entry of data to save time and reduce errors.

“Since 1986 when we introduced HeavyBid for construction estimating, we have been committed to bringing companies innovative business solutions to make their job easier,” said HCSS founder and President Mike Rydin. “We pride ourselves on identifying contractor needs and addressing them with new technology.”
