HCSS HeavyJob is a field operations and project control platform used primarily for timekeeping, payroll integration, job costing, and field data collection. It is well known for its electronic time cards, crew tracking, and integration with heavy construction payroll/ERP systems.
Clue is a construction fleet management and operational intelligence platform that also includes digital timecard and labor tracking as part of its broader suite. While Clue captures time in the field just like HeavyJob, it uniquely connects labor hours with asset utilization, maintenance triggers, and job‑level performance data, all in real time.
Clue empowers teams not just to track hours, but to optimize crews and equipment together. By combining real‑time labor logs, GPS verification, automated work orders, and maintenance intelligence, Clue provides a unified operational view that supports better scheduling, reduced downtime, higher accountability, and tighter cost control across fleets and workforce.
