Construction Site Handovers — Shared Site Notes Across Crews | archim

§ 01 / Site Handovers

Whoever arrives tomorrow knows what was done today

Shared voice notes, photos and checklists: handovers become a clean site diary, not a WhatsApp thread you have to reconstruct in your head.

The problem: information lost in transit

001

Everything on WhatsApp, nothing findable

Photos, audio and messages drowning in an endless thread. When you need something from last week, it's faster to call the bricklayer than to search for it.

002

New crews starting from zero

When the foreman changes or a new crew takes over, nobody really knows where the job stands, what's missing, or what's already been decided.

003

Decisions and changes forgotten

A variation agreed on site, a material chosen with the client: without a trace, it pops back up three months later as a dispute.

§ 03

The fix: a shared site diary

001

Structured site notes

Each note has date, author, site and type (work done, issues, decisions, changes). Searchable in two seconds, even months later.

002

Photos, audio and checklists together

Document the day however suits you: a photo, a 20-second voice note, an end-of-shift checklist. Everything stays linked to the right site.

003

New people get up to speed in 5 minutes

A new crew opens the site and sees recent work, open issues and recent decisions. The handover stops being a half-hour phone call.

§ 04

How it works

001

Capture

End of shift, from the phone: photo, audio or text. Pick the site and the note type — two taps.

002

Share

The note is immediately visible to anyone on that site: foreman, technical office, accounting. No more WhatsApp ping-pong.

003

Find again

Need a specific handover? Search by site, date or topic. No more endless scrolling for that message from three weeks ago.
