Apps for the Construction Industry
Businesses in the construction industry are empowering their employees with mobile apps to streamline planning, automate project documentation, and improve health and safety reporting to keep people safe when out on site.
Nutshell is a trusted software partner to some of the world’s safest brands
Streamline construction planning and safety reporting
Communication is imperative in construction, but outdated manual and paper processes are diluting the planning process and disrupting frontline reporting. This is a huge problem, as stringent health and safety protocol is imperative to running a safe and compliant construction business. Last year, £35.8 million in fines were issued to duty holders found guilty of health and safety offences by the HSE.
The solution is technology that can distribute project- and safety-critical information throughout an entire workforce in real-time via personal devices, which can be accessed anywhere no matter how remote.
Enter Nutshell; fit-for-purpose apps for construction.
Your workforce will be instantly updated with all safety-relevant and revised planning information on their mobile device. And with our offline mode, your team can still log, edit, read, or distribute relevant information, ensuring nothing gets missed.

Less time form filling, more time working
Construction work timelines can be severely hampered by admin.
Working in construction typically goes hand-in-hand with a mountain of paperwork, whether this is for inspections, safety briefings, planning… the list goes on. When time is money, who wants to be creating, filling out and distributing forms manually?
Having saved templates in one digital, accessible space, which can be easily edited and distributed in real-time, is a huge saving on time, effort and ultimately, costs. An app solution leaves your team more time to get on with the job at hand, creating a more motivated workforce.
Our Construction toolkits — only available with a Nutshell subscription
Very rarely do Nutshell customers settle for just one app — once they discover what can be achieved on the platform, they soon want to do everything on Nutshell! That’s why we’ve bundled together some of our most popular Construction apps in the following toolkits…
Construction Reporting Toolkit

Don't get left behind
The pandemic has accelerated digital adoption across the board – this is no different for the construction industry. In such a manual field, it has been impossible to carry out the same paper-and-pen processes that require physical completion and distribution from person to person. Increasingly, construction businesses are realising they can complete the same processes, safely and quickly, through apps.
Technology is the future of the construction industry. If you want to stay relevant to your clients, you need to incorporate more technology into your everyday processes and procedures.
