Nutshell’s construction planning toolkit includes all the essential reports and processes that site managers and planners alike need to bridge the communication gap between frontline workers and back office.

While customers often reach out to us looking for one particular solution, they nearly always end up choosing additional apps from our library.

Once you’ve discovered the speed and ease in which these apps can be up and running, as well as how they streamline reporting and improve data quality, it makes sense to manage all of your processes on Nutshell.

That’s why we’re now offering these apps as a bundle — you can take safety and project management fully digital from day one, with seamlessly integrated apps where essential data can be pushed and pulled from one report to another, then exported wherever you wish.

Nutshell makes it incredibly quick and easy to customise mobile apps to your organisation. Not just the colours and logos either — you can change everything, from the information you capture to the entire tracking and sign-off workflow.

If you’d like these apps integrated with the rest of your back-office software, that’s easy too. Nutshell comes with a range of plug ‘n’ play connectors to back-office products such as MS Office 365.

Send your details to our Customer Success team today and someone will be in touch soon to show you these apps in action, give your free access to a trial version and provide information on Nutshell’s subscriptions.

“Users are now forced to fill in every form and they’re legible too, which minimises human error. We export the data weekly, which alone saves around one full admin salary a year.”
