RedTag helps construction managers document jobsite delays in seconds, notify trades instantly, and calculate backcharges based on real completion dates. Built for field speed: log a delay in 5–10 seconds and move on with your day. What you can do with RedTag • Create Red Tags fast: Address → Trade → Delay Type → Root Cause → (optional 120-char note + photo) • Send notices instantly: Use your phone’s native Text (SMS) and Email share sheet to send: • Backcharge Warning • Backcharge Notice • Non-billable Delay Notice (city/utility/permit/weather) • Track completion dates: Close items with an actual completion date so the timeline is documented. • Auto-calculate backcharge amounts: Set fee-per-day rates by delay type and RedTag calculates: • Days charged • Rate per day • Total amount due • Handle billable and non-billable delays: Track everything, but only bill what’s truly trade-caused. • Examples: city inspection delays, utility impact, permit/plan issues, weather, miscellaneous schedule blockers • Dashboard & reporting: View totals by day/week/month/quarter/year: • Number of delays • Average delays per timeframe • Total delay impact (time) • Backcharge due (money) • Open exposure vs completed/backcharged • Export for management: Export CSV and PDF reports for meetings and documentation. • Offline-first: Your data stays on your device. No server required. Common root causes included No show • Not ready / prior trade incomplete • Failed inspection • Rework required • Missing/wrong/damaged material • Plan/option conflict • Access blocked • Safety noncompliance (sent trade home) • City/utility/permit/weather • Other Designed for the field • Big buttons, fast defaults, minimal typing • Favorites + recents for addresses and contacts • Daily reminders to review open Red Tags and close what’s resolved RedTag doesn’t replace your schedule tool. It creates a fast, consistent record of what happened, who was notified, and what it cost—so delays don’t disappear into texts and memory.
