Site Diary vs Aphex

Site Diary app replaces the existing paper construction daily reports, site journal or daily logs, where field workers make a report of things that occurred on their projects. With Site Diary app, we make the whole process quick, fun and simple so you both have a detailed daily report and time left to focus on building more. We developed Site Diary to address the needs of site engineers, foremen and site managers working in construction organizations, contractors and installation teams both large and small. "Site Diary allowed me to keep track of construction progress and emerging issues in real time” - Christopher Pletcher, Municipal Engineering Manager, Ayres Associates Task management/allocations feature The first product to integrate daily reports and task management. Users can create a task, add information about the task (manpower, equipment & materials to be used) and the persons it assigned to. Report progress on a task by creating a work log. The diary form will be automatically filled with all the task info which will make it a lot quicker for users to fill their daily reports. Site Diary Features include - Real-time site progress and monitoring, whereby users have visibility of work being done by site staff. Submitted reports are immediately available for review and approval by off-site personnel. - Share information. The app will allow field workers to send an email after they create an event. (This is optional) - Local weather report automatically included - every report entry is automatically linked with the prevailing weather conditions for that site at the time, which is important information to include in a daily construction report app. - Added images - photos and other images can be attached to reports. - Offline support - Sites with limited connectivity are not a problem as the app continues to perform seamlessly off-line. Data captured is saved on the device and synchronized to the cloud as soon as a connection becomes available. - User management - Add and remove users in your team - Set up site resources (labour, equipment, materials, contractors, tags) that you will use on your construction site. Tags are used to determine the type of event that is recorded, example: Safety. - Export Reports - This can be used as shift updates or project summaries and shared with staff, contractors and clients. These are done in either PDF, Excel or CSV format.

Aphex is the proven construction delivery platform. Site teams use it to plan the weeks ahead, run daily coordination and capture the record of what happened, all from one live plan. Think about everything it takes to run a site: the lookahead, staging plans, crew briefs, progress tracking and the daily diary. On most sites that's spread across spreadsheets, whiteboards and WhatsApp. The plan and what's actually happening drift apart, and the team absorbs the avoidable delay and cost. Aphex is one place to run the site. The mobile app puts it in your pocket. SEE TODAY'S WORK FROM THE LIVE PLAN • Your tasks come straight from the lookahead the whole team builds in Aphex • See your work, your team's or everything across the project, filtered by subcontractor, shift, location or user • See where work is happening on the site map, spot clashes and bring in your ArcGIS layers TRACK PROGRESS AS IT HAPPENS • Thumbs up when a task is on track, thumbs down to log a delay and the reason • Log progress as % complete, or in units like metres of pipe laid • Updates reach the office straight away, so the morning coordination meeting starts from where things really stand • @mention colleagues and get notified when work that affects you changes THE SITE DIARY THAT WRITES ITSELF • Talk or type through the shift, and add photos, voice notes or a snap of a handwritten page • Record labour, plant and materials against the tasks they belong to • Aphex compiles everything into a draft that starts from the day's plan. Review and approve it in under five minutes • Keep capturing offline.
