Raken Review

Innovates And Revolutionizes The Daily Construction Reporting Process

Raken makes the process of capturing, managing, and submitting information about construction projects and field or job site operations a smooth and convenient experience. That is why this app is regarded as an innovative and revolutionary daily reporting and field management application. With Raken, field workers and construction professionals who are deployed in the field or job site can quickly capture all the relevant information they need as they generate daily reports. They can translate information collected through audio or voice recording into texts, which streamlines how they enter a project and field-related information.

Add Photos, Videos, Documents, And Files To Jobsite Reports

Daily construction reports should be backed up with relevant files, media, and contents so the information contained in those reports can be visualized and easily digested by office staff and stakeholders. Fortunately, Raken is built with a feature that allows field workers, contractors, and subcontractors to automatically include images, videos, documents, and files to the daily construction reports they are generating. They can actually do this while they are visiting, working, or walking in the field or job site. The app permits them to capture job site or field photos and record videos with just a single tap using their mobile devices as well as upload photos and videos which they can attach to their reports.

Real-Time Notifications For Missed Reports, Delays, And Safety Events

Raken also generates notifications in real time to alert users when they failed to complete and submit some reports. Likewise, they are automatically notified about issues, events, and incidents related to the safety of workers in the field or job site. In addition, the application sends notifications to make sure that users are aware of delays in their projects.

Facilitate And Enhance Office-Field Communications And Processes Through Task Management

One of the reasons why Raken was created is to make coordination between offices and job sites smooth. This means office staff must be able to deliver all the information needed by field workers and vice versa, facilitating and enhancing office-field communications and processes. Its task management feature enables users to quickly assign tasks to field workers. After the tasks are assigned, they can monitor which tasks are already completed and which ones are still open and pending through the aid of real-time notifications. As field workers work on their tasks, the app lets them attach photos and videos to tasks so they can easily substantiate and communicate the progress of each task and prove that they are able to complete their tasks.

Jobsite Time Tracking And Time Card Management

With Raken, it is now very easy for superintendents and foremen to track the work hours and manage the time cards of their people who are working in the job site or field. The construction application permits them to enter the work hours of specific individuals or an entire crew. Additionally, Raken allows them to generate cost codes and allocate work hours to specific cost codes. This way, they will be able to keep track of how much they are spending on the manpower involved in the different aspects or parts of their projects.

Raken also includes the ability to split work hours so users can easily classify which hours were part of the regular working hours and which ones are overtime. Work hours can be divided into different cost codes as well. As the app streamlines job site time tracking and time card management, it accelerates payroll processing. In fact, office staff can already access the time card reports they need before the payroll processing day which is made possible by allowing users to create schedules for the creation and submission of time cards.

Centralized Information Access, Project Monitoring, And Insight Generation

The construction reporting application centralizes how users access job site or field-related information, monitor their projects, and obtain insights into job site activities. All the information they need is consolidated in a dashboard. This information is collated from daily construction reports, time cards, and other sources. From the dashboard, they will be able to access an overview of each project as well as dig deeper into specific project details and metrics.

Raken allows them to make a comparison between projects and evaluate how successful their projects are. Raken also ensures that consistent, accurate, and up-to-date information is distributed across all staff and stakeholders, whether they are at the office or in the field and whatever devices they are using. The application has the capability to synchronize information between multiple devices, keeping everyone in the loop.

Produce And Automatically Send Construction Summaries

Raken allows users to come up with construction summaries on a weekly or monthly basis and deliver them to executives and stakeholders via email automatically. With this feature, executives and stakeholders can easily monitor the progress of projects, access project statistics and metrics, and be updated on matters that are important and require their attention such as safety incidents and events, important project milestones, delays, unaccomplished and pending reports, and more.
