Excavation Timesheets
Easy-to-use time tracking excavation software
Accurately track employee time for your excavation company. With the data you collect, you can pinpoint your company’s performance and make informed decisions from progress tracking, daily reports, and more. An excavation timesheet is an essential tool for any company that wants to improve its bottom line.
Stop Using Paper Time Cards
When you’re on a jobsite, paper time cards are bound to get messy. And when you’re trying to figure out your labor costs, paper time cards are little-to-no help because the data is too hard to see. Start and stop times aren’t as accurate as they could be. Handwriting is tricky to read. Payroll processors make mistakes recording time stamps into the accounting software. Human error (and probably a bit of dirt) is unavoidable when you use paper time cards.
When it comes to excavation, accurately tracking your employees hours is important. Not only is the cost of labor a big ticket item when running a business, but it’s also a huge factor in understanding your costs for a job. Anytime you underbid your labor costs, the overages come straight out of your pocket. To increase you profits, you have to understand your labor costs. This isn’t going to happen if you’re still using paper time cards.
Does your excavation company have heavy equipment? Excavation equipment tracking can give you historical records for each machine, equipment GPS location, machine hours, fuel levels, and more. This gives you the ability to see which machines are making you money and which ones are costing you.

“It can be used anywhere. We have construction crews in the field and it's great that they can use it wherever they are and we can have real-time data without having to wait for the end of the week for paper timecards. It takes a lot of the burden off of our foremen and frees them up for more important work.”
