Stay in control of your project, from start to finish

Everyone knows what needs to be done and where

All action items are linked to a location on the drawing, along with a photo, a description, and the name of the person responsible for them. This way, it’s immediately clear to everyone what is expected of them.

Collaborate without the hassle, even outside your own organization

No endless email exchanges or phone calls about who’s supposed to do what. Your project partners receive their action items directly in the app and mark them as complete themselves.

Ensuring quality while the work is being done, not afterward

No need to search for photos and forms at the time of handover. Your inspections are recorded as soon as you perform them, and the file grows automatically as you go.

Preventing rework costs starts with a clear overview

See at a glance which issues are still open, who is responsible for them, and how long they've been pending. This way, you can take corrective action before a minor problem turns into a costly repair job.

How do you find the right quality assurance software for the construction industry?

Find out how to choose the right quality assurance software for the construction industry. Focus on pain points, involve the team, and measure results to ensure success.

No. The trial period lasts 30 days; you don't need to enter any payment information, and it ends automatically. If you want to continue after that, you can choose a plan yourself.

No, certain roles in Ed Controls are free. For example, subcontractors can close tickets in the app at no cost.

Yes. You can't always count on having a connection at the construction site, but that's not a problem: the app works offline and syncs automatically as soon as you have a signal again.

Your data is stored in two places: on your own phone, tablet, or laptop, and on our secure server. Even if your device crashes or gets lost, you won’t lose anything. We’re ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certified, so this has been verified by an independent third party—it’s not just our word.

Open the drawing in the app, tap the spot where the issue is and add a photo and description. Assign the item to the responsible subcontractor, who gets it directly in the app and marks it as done. Everyone sees the status in real time.

Yes. You run inspections with digital checklists on site, add photos and notes, and any issues become punch list items on the drawing. Every inspection is documented the moment you complete it, so your closeout documentation builds up as you go.

Subcontractors receive their items directly in the app, fix them and close them out themselves. You always see what is open with which company. The subcontractor role is free, so there’s no extra cost when your project partners join.
