Documentation is the contract. Captured on the roadside.

Road construction, utility works, public contracts. Your reports are contractually required and your deviations need to be formally recorded, or the money doesn’t come. Punchlister creates official-grade records and the daily works log, dictated on the roadside, with no evening ritual.

For public works contractors with reporting and progress-claim obligations

“…dry, fourteen degrees. Crew of six, two excavators, a hundred and twenty metres of sewer laid. At kilometre 2.4 a utility line that wasn’t on the plans, so the manhole moves three metres…”

On public works, your money hangs on your paperwork.

Reports are mandatory, deviations need to be formally recorded, and the client disputes slowly and only on paper. What isn’t correctly captured doesn’t get paid.

  • The daily works log, every evening again

    Filled in tired and late, or after the fact: exactly when a legally required document loses its evidentiary value.

  • Deviations that aren’t formally recorded

    Deviate from the specifications without formal documentation, and the money for that work simply doesn’t come.

  • Slow disputes on paper

    Public clients dispute slowly and formally. Without dated evidence, you’re at a disadvantage.

Dictate on site. Your log and reports are done by evening.

No laptop on the roadside, no evening ritual at the office. You speak the day in. Punchlister pours it into the right format. Email in Outlook and reports in SharePoint go into the same record.

  1. Dictate on the roadside

    Weather, crew, machinery, progress, visits, a deviation from the specifications. You speak it in as it happens.

  2. Punchlister structures it formally

    A daily works log in the right format, an official-grade report, a progress claim document. All timestamped.

  3. Archived and claim-ready

    Everything kept, dated. If the client disputes, your evidence is ready.

Documentation the way the specifications demand it. Without the evening hours.

  • The daily works log, in order every day

    Weather, crew, machinery and progress: dictated in the car, structured and archived with a timestamp.

  • Deviations that hold up

    Official-grade records made in the moment, ready to support your claim.

  • Progress claims without arguments

    Every document dated and aligned with your subcontractors. Less reconciliation at the end of the month.

  • Claims backed by documents, not memory

    The public client disputes? You have the formal, timestamped evidence.

Every work day documented the way the specifications require.

How we work.

We work with a small group of construction companies with revenue between €5M and €100M that want to build alongside us as design partners in 2026. Twelve weeks, on your own projects, and at the end we show you what it delivered.

  1. Week 0

    01Demo

    You leave your details and we schedule a demo. We show what we would take off your project leaders’ hands and look at whether a pilot makes sense.

  2. Week 0

    02Setup

    We set up the pilot with you: your rules, payment terms, margins and crews, the quotes and contracts of the pilot projects, and the tools your team already uses.

  3. Weeks 1–12

    03Twelve weeks live

    Three to five project leaders send us what happens on their sites, and we handle the paperwork. Every week, you talk to the founders directly.

  4. Week 12

    04Results

    We put the results on the table: the extra work we confirmed for you, the agreements on paper and the hours your project leaders got back. Measured on your own projects.

Run projects. Not your inbox.

See for yourself what Punchlister does on your sites. Book a demo. Then we set up your pilot together.

In the demo, we look at

  • What we would take off your project leaders’ hands, on work like yours
  • Whether a twelve-week pilot makes sense for your company
  • Your questions, answered by the people who would run it for you

Leaving your details takes a minute. No password, no installation, no credit card.
