In construction, every delay, rework cycle, and subcontracted survey visit can impact project profitability. SiteMetrix® Grade gives contractors the tools to take greater control of site measurement, grade verification, and project layout activities, helping crews make faster decisions and keep projects moving forward. By bringing essential surveying and grade checking capabilities in-house, contractors can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and maintain greater control over project outcomes.
1. Reduce Surveying Costs
Many small- and medium-sized contractors rely on external survey providers for routine grade checks, stakeout work, and site measurements. SiteMetrix Grade allows your team to complete these tasks internally, reducing survey expenses and minimizing scheduling delays that can slow project progress.
2. Improve Jobsite Productivity
When crews can verify grades, collect field measurements, and access accurate site data without waiting for outside support, work continues uninterrupted. SiteMetrix Grade helps teams make informed decisions in real time, allowing projects to move forward more efficiently and with fewer disruptions.
3. Increase Accuracy and Reduce Rework
Grade errors and incorrect quantities can quickly become costly. SiteMetrix Grade helps contractors verify elevations, slopes, and project specifications throughout construction, reducing the risk of mistakes and helping ensure work is completed correctly the first time.
4. Take Ownership of Site Surveying
Contractors are increasingly adopting GNSS surveying technology to gain greater control over their operations. SiteMetrix Grade enables crews to perform stakeout, collect topographic data, record as-built information, and verify project progress without relying on external resources for every measurement task.
5. Measure Volumes with Confidence
Accurate volume calculations are critical for managing earthworks, aggregates, and material movement. SiteMetrix Grade can calculate stockpile volumes and compare surfaces, providing valuable data for estimating, planning, production tracking, and project reporting.
6. Support Machine Control Workflows
SiteMetrix Grade helps bridge the gap between surveying and machine control by enabling users to configure, convert, and manage project files for compatible GradeMetrix® machine control systems. This creates a more connected workflow between the office, field personnel, and equipment operators.
7. Complete Projects Faster
With access to real-time site information, contractors can reduce downtime, improve coordination, and make faster decisions throughout the project lifecycle. The result is improved productivity, reduced operational costs, and greater confidence in delivering projects on schedule and within budget.
