Making Construction Documentation Easier with a New Photo Tool

FieldFirst Camera was created to make it easy for you to take, send, and store photos of your work.

Background – A construction company with many job sites took about 24,000 photos a year using 10 workers. They sent photos by text or email to a shared mailbox. This caused lost files, wrong labels, and messy communication. It wasted time and made projects harder to manage.

The Problem – The company needed a simple system to organize photo uploads, cut down on mistakes, and save time spent sorting messy messages. It was important that the tool be easy for workers to use every day.

The Fix – The company started using FieldFirst Camera, a tool that let workers upload job photos straight from their phones.

  • The tool sorted files by project automatically, helping avoid lost or wrong labels.
  • Project managers could see updates right away without needing email or text chains.
  • Workers learned to use it quickly after just a few short meetings.

Results

Time Saved: The tool handled more than half of all project files, saving about 384 hours of work each year.

Money Saved: The time saved was worth $13,800 in labor costs, while the tool cost $7,200 a year. That’s a big return on investment.

Better Organization: Lost photos and wrong labels were no longer a problem, making it easier to keep track of everything.

Easy to Use: Workers and managers liked how simple the tool was, which made daily tasks less stressful.

Better Client Reports: While project schedules didn’t change, better photo records meant faster and clearer updates for clients.

Wrap-Up
The new tool changed how the company handled project photos, saving time and money while keeping things better organized. With such good results, the company plans to use the tool with more teams to save even more time and effort.
