U.K.-based building materials company Hanson has developed a free construction app that is designed to give contractors the information and tools that they need to stay on top of concrete deliveries and pours, which are considered vital and fundamental to any construction project.
The 'OnSite' construction app makes it possible for users to view the location and status of delivery trucks in real time, whilst also keeping tabs on their orders for the foreseeable future. Contractors can also use the 'OnSite' app to track their various projects, sites and deliveries in order to coordinate tasks efficiently and relay information to crews who are working on site.
With the advent of this innovative construction app, it's apparent that Hanson is not content with its existing reputation as one of the world's top concrete suppliers, but is now looking to tap into digital tools to provide streamlined project management capabilities to its customers.
