FERRO

FERRO — the complete back office for residential construction subcontractors.

Built by a foundation contractor who got tired of losing nights to paperwork. Timecards, vendor bills, invoices, job costs, and compliance records — one system, on your laptop and in your pocket.

IF YOU CAN ANSWER EMAILS, YOU CAN RUN FERRO.

Set your company up in under 20 minutes — your crew, your jobs, your rates — and clock in tomorrow morning.

FOR THE CREW

GPS-verified clock in and out, in English or Spanish
Punches land on the right job automatically — a guy who clocks in at the wrong site gets corrected by location before it hits your books
Works with no signal. Punches queue offline and sync when coverage comes back
Workers sign their own timecards on the phone
Weekly safety talks signed at clock-out, archived per employee
Time-off and sick requests from the phone

FOR THE FOREMAN

Daily field reports with photos, receipts, and the crew's hours already filled in
Scan permits, delivery tickets, and signed forms straight to the right job
Credit card expenses — snap the receipt and it reads the vendor and amount
Dispatch and job contacts

FOR THE OWNER

Real job costing — labor, equipment, materials, and card spend, live, to the penny
Work-in-progress billing against your contract
Vendor bills that read themselves: the amount, the job, and every line item, waiting for your approval
Invoices, change orders, and proposals on your letterhead
Check writing with duplicate-payment protection
Dispatch straight to your crew's phones
Plan sets, permits, and certs on your phone, on site

WHEN THEY SHOW UP, YOU HAVE THE RECORD.

A wage claim. An OSHA visit. An insurance audit. A jobsite dispute.

FERRO doesn't assemble a compliance story after the fact. The signature, the punch, the dated report, the expiry record — all captured as the work happens.

Weekly OSHA safety talks, signed and time-stamped per employee
Signed timecards tied to the worker and the date
GPS-verified punches with job, time, and location
Certification and subcontractor COI expiry tracking
Dated field reports with crew, materials, weather, and photos
Employee attendance records

MEET JANE.

Jane is your office manager. She reads the vendor bills that come into your email, pulls the vendor, the amount, the job, and every line item, and has them filed and waiting before you sit down. She sorts your inbox so what needs you is on top.

Ask her anything about your business. What you're owed. What you owe. How many hours a guy worked last week. Where that permit set got filed. The answers come from your own records — not a guess — and every number can be tapped through to what it's built from.

She shows her work. And she won't send an email, write an invoice, or dispatch a crew without your approval.

Built for the residential construction industry.

The big platforms are built for commercial GCs with a project manager on staff. FERRO is built for the guy who is the project manager, the estimator, and the one in the field.

Concrete, framing, electrical, roofing, plumbing — residential subs running their own crews.

A FERRO SUBSCRIPTION IS REQUIRED.

This app works with a FERRO account. Crews use it to clock in and run their day; owners and foremen get the full system. Visit buildferro.com to get started.
