Discover how "The Lew Crew" streamlined field communication and Sage 300 CRE integration using our specialized concrete construction software.
The Concrete Construction Software Challenge
Lewis Construction, a specialized concrete contractor based in the Midwest, faced a critical communication problem. Errors and inaccuracies in timesheets were driving up payroll expenses and creating nightmares for union benefit documentation. After a disastrous attempt with another field software, they realized they needed a flexible concrete construction software solution that would allow foremen to act as a central hub between the field and the office.

Streamlined Workflows & Accurate Field Data
Lewis Construction found the solution at World of Concrete, where they discovered mJobTime. Our platform not only solved their complex field reporting workflows but also accelerated their planned migration to Sage 300 CRE accounting software.
- Digital Daily Logs: Crews use iPads to track labor time, daily logs, and production quantities with Total Station accuracy.
- Foreman-Centric: Time reports flow from foremen, eliminating the need for office staff to deal directly with individual union workers.
- Enhanced Reporting: The office uses mJobTime to automate overtime calculations, non-paid break insertions, and timecard approvals.
- Improved Safety: Crews can now report job hazards, safety meeting notes, and injury details directly from the field.
The Result: Controlling Costs
The flexibility and portability of mJobTime have helped Lewis Construction regain control of their labor costs while maintaining their commit to state-of-the-art concrete technology. Total payroll processing staff hours have been reduced by 20%, and management now rests secure with accurate, daily reporting and enhanced job safety data.
