Site Diary
A daily site diary that takes minutes, not hours.
Foreman's digital site diary lets Australian builders record what happened on every job, every day, straight from their phone. Capture progress photos, hours worked and work completed without paperwork piling up in the ute.
A site diary is a daily record of everything that happens on a construction site: who was on site, the hours they worked, the weather, deliveries, delays and the work completed. Builders use site diaries to track progress, manage subcontractors and protect themselves if a dispute or variation comes up later.
Foreman turns the site diary into a 2-minute job done on a phone. Instead of a paper book that gets lost or a spreadsheet nobody updates, your whole team logs the day as it happens.
