Your crews see everything. Here's what it's costing you not to.
A foreman files a report every day — a delay, a safety issue, a scope change. Most of it sits unread until Friday's meeting, and by then the cost is already baked in. Answer a few quick questions and see what that delay is worth in your business, in one year.
Project baseline
Shared across change order, back charge & schedule
Every project you take on in a typical year. This one number drives the change order, back charge, and schedule figures below.
Potential Change Order
Work outside original scope, caught late
On average, how many billable scope changes per project slip through — never written up, or caught after the work is already done.
Change orders run 8–14% of contract value industry-wide. Most get recovered — this is the typical dollar value of the ones that don't.
Potential Back Charge
GC back charges you couldn't contest
GCs back-charge subs for cleanup, damage to other trades, delays, and corrective work. Without same-day photos and logs, you can't contest it — so you eat it. This is the share of contract value you write off each year.
Safety Concern
Injuries, near-misses, OSHA-related issues
Direct costs for a recordable average around $40K. Research on indirect costs — lost productivity, admin time, EMR impact — puts the real total at 4 to 8 times that.
Schedule Risk
Anything threatening the timeline
Applied across all your projects for the year, using the project baseline above.
General conditions, idle crew time, and extended field supervision compound for every day a risk goes unflagged.

Figures are directional estimates calculated directly from the inputs you provide. Default values draw on public industry research — change order and rework benchmarks from Dodge Data & Analytics and industry change-order studies, and safety incident cost ranges from OSHA’s Safety Pays program and National Safety Council data. They’re meant to size the problem, not to serve as a financial audit of your business.
