Question 1

What is construction technology software?

Accepted Answer

Construction technology software (ConTech) refers to digital tools built specifically for the construction industry — project management platforms, field reporting apps, procurement systems, safety compliance tools, and BIM (Building Information Modelling) integrations. The global ConTech market is projected to reach $35.2 billion by 2030, driven by the need to reduce project delays, cost overruns, and rework.

Question 2

How much does custom construction software cost?

Accepted Answer

Custom construction software costs $50,000–$300,000 depending on scope. A field reporting app with offline capability runs $50,000–$100,000. A full project management platform with resource planning, procurement, and reporting costs $150,000–$300,000. Custom software pays for itself when it reduces rework (which accounts for 30% of construction costs industry-wide).

Question 3

Why do construction companies need custom software?

Accepted Answer

Off-the-shelf tools often don't fit construction workflows — they're too generic, don't work offline on remote sites, or can't integrate with existing ERP and accounting systems. Custom software matches your exact processes, reduces double entry, and provides real-time visibility across projects, sites, and teams. McKinsey reports that large construction projects typically run 80% over budget — better software directly addresses this.

Question 4

Can construction apps work offline on job sites?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We build mobile apps with offline-first architecture — data is stored locally on the device and syncs automatically when connectivity is restored. This is essential for construction where many job sites have limited or no internet. Offline support covers forms, photos, inspections, timesheets, and task updates.

Question 5

How long does it take to build construction management software?

Accepted Answer

A focused tool (e.g., field reporting or daily logs) takes 8–12 weeks. A comprehensive project management platform takes 4–8 months. We recommend starting with the highest-pain workflow, proving value with real users, then expanding. This approach accelerates adoption and reduces risk.

Question 6

What integrations do construction software products need?

Accepted Answer

Common integrations include accounting systems (Sage, QuickBooks, Xero), ERP platforms (Procore, Viewpoint, Oracle), BIM tools (Revit, Navisworks), document management, GPS and equipment tracking, and payroll systems. At Baaz, we handle API integrations as part of the build, ensuring data flows between your existing tools and the new software.
