Boost productivity on site
Everyday presents new challenges on a construction site. Keep everyone informed and aligned by digitizing quality control checks, site safety assessments, and equipment usage manuals. The moment something changes, you can adapt processes and procedures in a few clicks, with changes rolling out instantly to everyone on site.
“SafetyCulture has saved us about 1,500 man hours per year. That’s a huge efficiency gain.”
Prevent incidents and promote a safety culture
Encourage a supportive and inclusive culture where teams are comfortable reporting safety concerns and addressing potential risks. By making it easy for anyone to report observations, hazards, near misses, and incidents, you can respond quickly and put the right measures in place.
“Today, we’re at 2.5 million hours without a lost time injury. SafetyCulture allows us to achieve that. You don’t work 2.5 million hours and just be lucky.”
Conduct routine quality checks with ease
Ensure that all materials and processes across all construction phases are up to standard through consistent inspections. Use daily logs to document the construction project lifecycle and keep a detailed record of all quality-related activities for future reference.
Implement corrective actions across teams
Address quality issues promptly before they create a domino effect within construction processes. Monitor quality control and assurance trends using analytics and use this data to identify areas for improvement. Assign corrective actions accordingly to keep construction progress on track.
Enhance skills and knowledge for quality management
Ensure teams are equipped with the right skills and knowledge to maintain the expected quality throughout the project lifecycle. Use the platform to conduct training and deliver instructions that improve the abilities of team members to assess the quality of materials and processes.
Drive improvement across every jobsite
“You are going to get better quality out in the field if you run a clean, quality and safe job. That’s just the way we see it.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Generally, construction quality management aligns closely with project planning and design phases to define the expectations and standards for the project. It also overlaps a lot with procurement and supply chain management to get materials and subcontractors that satisfy quality criteria.
Other processes it integrates with include stakeholder management, resource allocation, and project closeout to verify all quality standards have been satisfied or corrective actions taken.
Using software to evaluate construction quality improves overall accuracy through standardizing processes for inspections while also facilitating real-time monitoring and reporting. This allowed for more consistency across the application of quality standards since there is better visibility over the process.
Moreover, using software makes it easier to address any issues that arise through reports and promotes transparency by centralizing data. This enhances project outcomes and supports a culture of continuous improvement for quality assurance and control throughout the construction process.
Implementing technology for construction quality management improves the efficiency and accuracy of quality processes. Existing technologies such as sensors and building information modeling (BIM) can be used to detect potential defects and streamline approaches to checking for quality. Moreover, technology enhances the possibility of visualizing project goals, leading to reduced errors and better attention to detail.
All stakeholders in a construction project benefit from using software designed for quality management, as it helps minimize risks and fosters a more transparent environment. However, quality managers gain the most out of using construction quality management software.
Their responsibilities include ensuring quality standards are followed throughout the construction process through resource management and similar processes, which can be streamlined by the right software.
Some common challenges in construction quality management consist of miscommunication between teams, lack of structure, inadequate expectation setting, and documentation failures.
SafetyCulture is a platform that aims to streamline information and communication channels across all stakeholders, making it more convenient for everyone to be on the same page. It also allows for easier documentation and provides a framework for delegating tasks and responsibilities to help with role expectations.
