Operations management

One operating view. Every jobsite, every asset.

Fleet visibility today with a mixed fleet breakdown across jobsites

Cross-Jobsite Operating Control

One live map shows all equipment across jobsites. Leaders use utilization, maintenance, and cost data to plan each move.

Capacity risk visibility: Identify assets sitting idle, tied up on low-demand work, or unavailable when another project needs equipment

Mixed fleet oversight: Review GPS-tracked, OEM-connected, rented, and untracked assets in one operating view

Construction fleet intelligence: Use utilization, maintenance, fuel, and cost signals to guide resource and performance decisions

Fleet allocation and resource planning for mixed fleets

Resource Planning for Mixed Fleets

Teams use construction resource planning software to schedule equipment and people. One calendar shows owned and rented equipment by booking, availability, or transit status.

Fleet allocation control: See which assets are available, assigned, rented, down, or already committed before approving new requests

Rental exposure review: Spot underused owned equipment before another jobsite requests additional rental equipment

Cross-jobsite redeployment: Move equipment based on availability, location, utilization, and project demand

Dispatch board across projects

Dispatch Control Across Projects

Crews request equipment from their phones. Dispatchers approve each request and plan the move on the Magnet Board. Push alerts keep crews up to date.

Assignment visibility: Review equipment moves, open requests, and project coverage through structured dispatch workflows such as the Magnet Board

Transport bottleneck control: Identify moves that need transport coordination before they delay equipment availability

Move-readiness checks: Use pre-pickup inspections to smooth handoffs before assets leave or move between sites

Fleet uptime and maintenance risk by asset

Fleet Uptime and Maintenance Risk

The PM dashboard color-codes every piece of equipment by status. Clue creates work orders when PM intervals hit. Teams see service needs in one place.

Fleet uptime risk: Review PM status, overdue service, open work orders, and repair progress across the fleet

Shop capacity visibility: See maintenance workload and repair priorities so critical equipment can return to service sooner

Issue escalation: Turn fault-code alerts and failed inspection items into repair workflows before small issues create larger downtime

Asset profitability snapshot with revenue, cost and margin

Fleet Financials and Asset Profitability

Fleet Financials shows revenue, cost, and profitability by asset, fleet, or project. Teams set charge rates by equipment class or asset for each project.

Asset margin visibility: Review revenue, cost, and profitability by asset, fleet, and project

Rate and cost control: Use configured equipment rates to understand how fleet usage affects job-level cost

Replacement and rental decisions: Use each asset's utilization target, revenue, and cost to guide the next move.

AI Report Builder scheduling executive fleet reports

Executive Reporting and ERP Data Flow

The AI Report Builder turns a plain-language request into a report. Teams schedule any report for email delivery by day, week, or month.

Executive reporting cadence: Build and schedule fleet, utilization, maintenance, cost, and project reports for leadership review

ERP-ready operations data: Move approved fleet and operational data into supported ERP workflows where implemented

Division-level rollups: Segment reporting by division, region, jobsite, or operating group for multi-division construction teams

Common questions

Construction operations management software FAQ.

What is construction operations management software for VP Ops?

Construction operations management software gives leaders one place to manage equipment and work across jobsites. Clue connects fleet work with resource plans, maintenance, financials, and ERP workflows.

Clue gives operations leaders a cross-jobsite view of equipment status, utilization, location, assignments, maintenance activity, and cost signals. This helps VP Ops teams see where capacity, uptime risk, or cost issues are starting to drift across projects, divisions, or operating groups.

Clue supports mixed fleet management by helping teams review GPS-tracked, OEM-connected, rented, and untracked assets in one planning workflow. VP Ops teams can review availability, assignments, rental exposure, and utilization before approving new equipment requests or moving assets between jobsites.

Clue shows equipment location plus moving or idle status on one live map. The utilization report compares each asset with its target. Teams see owned and rented equipment in one view. They move idle owned equipment to the next job before adding a rental.

Clue supports structured dispatch workflows with equipment requests, assignment visibility, transport coordination, and move-readiness steps such as pre-pickup inspections. This helps VP Ops teams reduce dispatch bottlenecks, missed handoffs, and status-chasing across projects.

Clue helps operations leaders review PM status, open work orders, repair progress, fault-code signals, failed inspections, and maintenance backlog across the fleet. This gives VP Ops teams a clearer view of equipment readiness before maintenance risk turns into jobsite downtime.

Yes. Clue supports fleet financial review with equipment cost, revenue, profitability, rate structures, and project usage where configured. This helps operations leaders see which assets, projects, rentals, or operating groups may need margin, replacement, or redeployment review.

Yes. The AI Report Builder creates a report from a plain-language request. Teams schedule email delivery by day, week, or month. Clue sends completed work order data to Viewpoint Vista. Timecards match the formats Viewpoint Spectrum and HCSS HeavyJob need. HCSS HeavyJob passes time to ADP.

Operations leaders can use Clue on a phone while traveling between jobsites. It runs on web, iOS, and Android. The mobile app puts work orders, inspections, timecards, and equipment moves on the phone. Push notifications cover work orders, equipment moves, requests, and service alerts. Teams stay current between site visits.

Clue can split fleet data by division, region, or business unit. Teams can set up to three levels. Each level can have its own users, assets, and permissions. Users in Admin, Manager, Mechanic, Operator, and Driver roles each see what they need.

Construction companies use construction fleet management to see equipment, plan service, and track financial results. A live map shows where all equipment is and whether it is moving or idle. The utilization report compares each asset with its target. Clue creates a work order when a PM interval hits. Fleet Financials shows revenue, cost, and profitability by asset.

Clue helps operations leaders schedule, review, and act on equipment inspections. Teams use pre-trip, post-trip, operator daily, on-hire, off-hire, or custom forms. A calendar shows each inspection's schedule and completion status. Clue turns an inspection item that calls for service into a work order task. Inspectors attach photos. Teams export reports as PDFs.
