Field Manager | Forms and Workflows

Configure field workflows. Capture inspections and issues in context.

Thinkproject Field Manager is a mobile-first construction field management software solution that lets teams configure forms, inspections, approvals, and field processes without custom development. It helps organisations standardise site operations, capture information like defects, observations, and RFIs in context, and keep field-to-office collaboration traceable with an instant and seamless data exchange.

Why execution consistency matters

Standardise site execution. Reduce rework. Stay complaince ready.

Field Manager helps teams move from paper forms, spreadsheets, and disconnected mobile tools to configurable processes, contextual field capture, and traceable field- to- office collaboration with one construction site management software solution.

Let business users configure site processes themselves

Create forms, inspections, checklists, approvals, and escalation rules without custom development so teams can adapt processes faster.

Form builder and workflow design

Location and 2D contextual capture

Capture issues and inspections in context

Record defects, observations, RFIs, and site data with metadata, linked to physical locations and positioned on associated 2D Plans. So the right location and asset context are never lost.

Keep field teams productive on mobile

All configured web forms and processes can be used in native mobile apps with photos and attachments. Data updates are instantly sync between the site and office.

Seamless interaction between office and site

Create audit ready records for quality, safety, and compliance

Create audit-ready records for quality, safety, and compliance

Maintain time-stamped actions, comments, attachments, approvals, and evidence so every field process is traceable from submission to close out using adaptable construction inspection software workflows.

For every stakeholder

Built for project, asset, and site teams

Field Manager supports the priorities of office and field stakeholders with one environment for configurable workflows, site coordination, and accountability.

For asset owners, project managers, and QSHE managers

Standardise inspections and site processes across all projects while keeping evidence, approvals, and escalation paths consistent without custom development.

Standardise operations and reporting across teams

Maintain audit ready records for quality, safety, and compliance

Improve oversight across projects, sites, and field processes

For site managers and contractors

Use mobile forms and tasks to capture issues, observations, and RFIs in context and keep activities moving from field to office.

Capture data on-site with photos, attachments, and location context

Exchange data instantly between site and office teams

Enhance efficiency by reducing delays and miscommunication with clear follow- up and ownership

Recognise the problem

Keep every field process, observation, and follow up under control

In field operations, the issue is not lack of activity. It is lack of standardisation and traceability. When inspections, QSHE checks, defects, observations, and RFIs are managed through paper forms, spreadsheets, and disconnected apps, teams lose control of process quality, evidence, and follow-up. That makes it harder to scale operational workflows, maintain compliance, and keep site and office teams aligned.

Field Manager helps teams collaborate through one digital platform for field processes without creating IT dependency.

  • Paper forms do not scale

    Manual capture creates inconsistency, delay, and rework across sites and teams.

  • Templates are hard to standardise

    Local or hard coded templates make process changes difficult to roll out across projects.

  • Records lose context

    Issues captured without plan, GIS, model, or asset context are harder to understand and resolve.

  • Follow up is manual

    Without clear workflow steps and responsibilities, processes stall between submission, review, and action.

  • Audit evidence is incomplete

    Missing time stamps, comments, and attachments weaken compliance and accountability.

How it works

Field Manager combines shared platform workflow services with mobile first-field execution to deliver scalable inspection, QSHE, and site process management for teams looking for flexible construction site management software capabilities.

Configure workflows once

Create forms, status models, responsibilities, notifications, and approval steps that can be reused across projects, sites, and portfolios.

Capture information in context

Record defects, observations, RFIs, and inspections with metadata or directly on 2D plans.

Run review, approvals, and follow up with traceability

Route field records through review, approval, and close out while maintaining audit ready evidence and clear ownership.

Platform control layer

Central identity, permissions, workflow services, and governance across applications.

Field Manager value layer

Self service forms, configurable processes, contextual field capture, mobile execution, and audit ready records for daily site operations.

Core use cases

Configurable field workflows for site execution and inspections

Focus on the workflows where self service configuration and contextual capture make the biggest difference.

Self-configured field inspections

  • Business users configure forms, inspections, status models, and approvals once, then deploy them consistently across projects and sites.
  • Outcome: Faster standardisation and insights across projects

Form builder and workflow logic

QSHE checklist and evidence capture

QSHE execution on site

  • Run quality, safety, and environmental inspections with standardised checklists, evidence, comments, and escalation paths.
  • Outcome: Stronger compliance and more consistent field execution.

Defects, observations, and RFIs in context

  • Capture information with metadata or directly on plans, GIS maps, or 3D models so issues are tied to the right location and asset context.
  • Outcome: Faster clarification and better operational accuracy.

Tagged to locations, positioned on 2D plans

Review, approval, and task follow up

Pre configured workflows drive complaint collaboration

  • Route submissions through review, approval, and follow up so site teams and office stakeholders stay aligned on status and responsibilities.
  • Outcome: Close collaboration and minimise delays & miscommunication.

Seamless data exchange between site and office based teams

  • Use the mobile app to run configured forms and processes on site, capture evidence, and data is instantly shared back to the web.
  • Outcome: Higher field productivity without losing traceability.

Frequently asked questions

Field Manager is a mobile-first construction field management solution that lets organisations configure forms, inspections, approvals, and workflows without custom development and run them consistently across sites.

It supports asset owners, project managers, QSHE managers, site managers, and contractors who need structured field operations and information capture.

Yes. Business users can configure forms, checklists, workflow steps, status models, escalations, notifications, and reusable templates without heavy IT dependency.

Any field based data capture process such as Inspections, QSHE processes, observations, defects, RFIs, approvals, escalations, and related site workflows.

Records can be captured with metadata and linked visual context on plans, GIS maps, or 3D models, with photos, attachments, and location data where enabled.

Today Field Manager is ‘always on’ and allows instant exchange of data for connected sites. We will shortly expand this to allow Field Manager to work offline and to auto-sync once the connection is restored.
