Built for maintenance
Every job, on every engineer’s phone.
Employee management for maintenance teams: from a few engineers to a team of thirty across many sites.
Jobs and tasks
Every job with its site, its tasks and who is on it.
Photo proof
Engineers add a photo when a job is done, so you see it without a site visit. Before-and-after photos, checked by AI, on Pro.

The rota
Plan the week. Every engineer sees their shifts and gets a reminder.
Clock in on site
Your engineers clock in on their phone, even with no signal. Only within a set distance of the site, if you want.

Questions from maintenance teams
What maintenance teams ask us.
Can I send a report to the client?
Yes, on Pro. A site report gathers a job’s progress and photos, ready to share with the client.
Does it work in plant rooms and basements with no signal?
Yes. Your engineers can clock in and out with no signal. The times are kept on the phone and sent as soon as it is back online.
Can I see that a job was really done?
Yes, on Standard and Pro. A job can need a photo before it is marked done. On Pro, a before photo too and, if you switch it on, an AI check that says whether the work looks finished.
Do my engineers need to pay?
No. Only the company pays. Your engineers download the app for free on iPhone or Android and join with your invite.

Build Halt is a workforce management app for the deskless workforce: teams who work on sites, on the road or on the shop floor rather than at a desk. It covers employee management from the rota and clock-in to timesheets, tasks, time off and pay, on a phone or on the web. It is made by Build Halt Limited, a UK company, and is available now on the App Store and Google Play.
