Know exactly where every job stands.

Production tracking means measuring the quantities your crews actually install against what was budgeted. In construction, that usually looks like square feet of drywall, cubic yards of concrete, or linear feet of pipe completed per day. Production tracking tools let foremen log those quantities by job and cost code, so the office can compare actual progress to estimates and catch issues before they hit margin.

You can build production quantity budgets in Miter by importing your existing estimate from Excel or CSV, or by entering line items directly in the dashboard. Each line item ties a quantity to a job and cost code, with your choice of unit of measure: square feet, cubic yards, linear feet, tons, each, and so on. Once budgets are loaded, your team can start tracking construction projects against real numbers from day one, with no separate setup required for the field app.

Every quantity logged in Miter is tied to a job and a cost code (also called an activity). That same cost code structure links to labor hours and budgets, so when a foreman logs 200 square feet of drywall under cost code 09 29 00, Miter’s progress tracking software automatically compares it to the budgeted quantity and the hours behind it.

Yes. Miter’s production tracking app is built for real job site conditions, including locations with no cell service. Foremen can keep logging quantities while offline, and entries sync automatically once the device reconnects. That matters on rural sites, in basements, and anywhere coverage drops. Production data, time entries, and notes are saved safely on the device until they reach the server, so nothing is lost on the way back from the job.

Yes. Quantity logs in Miter support notes, so foremen can add context like “rain delay on east elevation” or “short on rebar today” right alongside the quantity. Photos attach to the daily report tied to the same job and date, keeping visual documentation, time, and production data together in one place. Together they give the office a complete picture of what happened on site, not just the raw numbers.

Miter’s Field Productivity report can be sliced by job, cost code, crew, individual team member, or date. Because quantity logs connect to timesheets, you see actual quantities installed alongside the hours behind them. Group by whichever cut helps you act: daily crew output, weekly phase progress, or per-employee productivity. That granularity is what separates real construction productivity software from a spreadsheet, especially for union contractors tracking crews across multiple classifications.

Yes. Production data from Miter exports to CSV, Excel, or PDF, so you can share clean reports with project owners, general contractors, or auditors without rebuilding them in another tool. Field productivity, quantity logs, and daily reports can all be filtered to a specific job and date range before export. For contractors on public or prevailing wage projects, see our overview of workforce reporting requirements for contractors.

Yes. Quantity logs can be edited inline from the dashboard, updated in bulk, archived, or deleted to clean up mistakes. If a log is linked to a timesheet, the quantity and notes can still be edited directly, with other fields adjusted on the timesheet itself to keep records consistent. Every change is timestamped and tied to the user, so you keep a complete audit trail across production, time, and payroll.
