Version française Project overruns, miscommunication, and compliance gaps are costing construction firms millions.
Construction projects fail to meet budget or schedule far more often than they should — driven by fragmented communication between field and office, manual document management, and reactive rather than proactive risk management. As projects grow in complexity and regulatory requirements multiply, the cost of poor information management compounds. Kiloctet builds construction software that connects project teams, automates compliance workflows, and gives managers the real-time visibility they need to catch problems before they become costly.
Technologies & platforms we use
A centralized project management hub where site managers, project engineers, and office teams coordinate tasks, track progress against schedule, manage RFIs and submittals, and share documents from a single platform. Gantt chart views and critical path analysis help managers identify schedule risks early and model the impact of delays before communicating with clients. Integration with cost tracking modules gives project managers a combined schedule-and-cost view that traditional project management tools separate.
A version-controlled document repository for construction drawings, specifications, contracts, and correspondence that eliminates the risk of teams working from outdated documents. Drawings are published with revision control, ensuring everyone on site accesses the current approved version from their mobile device. Transmittal logs, document distribution records, and automated notifications create the audit trail needed for dispute resolution and project closeout.
Digitizes safety inspection checklists, incident reporting, near-miss recording, hazard identification, toolbox talk logs, and permit-to-work workflows for field teams on mobile devices. Safety managers get a dashboard view of site compliance rates, outstanding corrective actions, and subcontractor safety performance across all active projects. Automated reminders ensure inspections are completed on schedule and overdue items are escalated to the appropriate manager.
Manages the full subcontractor lifecycle from tender invitation and bid comparison through contract award, purchase order management, delivery tracking, and payment certification. Material delivery schedules are linked to construction programs so procurement managers can anticipate potential supply chain impacts on site progress. Document requirement tracking ensures subcontractors submit all required insurance certificates, method statements, and compliance documents before work commences.
Connects your Building Information Modeling (BIM) data to live project management, issue tracking, and field inspection workflows so that the model is a living source of truth rather than a static design deliverable. Field teams can raise issues directly against model elements using mobile apps, and design coordination clashes are tracked and resolved within the platform. Post-construction, the same platform can be handed to the owner as a facility management digital twin.
Centralized platform for scheduling, task management, document control, and stakeholder communication on construction projects.
Version-controlled repository for construction drawings, specifications, and project correspondence.
Mobile-first app for field teams to complete safety inspections, log incidents, and manage permit-to-work processes.
Tracks actual vs. budgeted costs, manages change orders, and forecasts final account positions on live projects.
Handles subcontractor tendering, contract management, compliance document collection, and payment certification.
Links building model elements to field issues, RFIs, and clash reports for integrated design and construction management.
Monitors the location, utilization, maintenance status, and cost of construction plant and equipment across sites.
Packages as-built documentation, O&M manuals, and warranty data for structured owner handover at project completion.
Construction rework — caused by clashes between trades, incorrect drawings being used on site, or miscommunication between design and construction teams — is one of the largest drivers of budget overruns. Digital document control that ensures everyone works from the latest approved drawings, combined with BIM clash detection, eliminates the majority of rework-generating information failures. Projects with mature document management practices consistently report lower rework rates.
Digitizing safety workflows increases the frequency and quality of safety inspections by removing the friction of paper forms and making it easier for supervisors to complete inspections on their phones at the point of work. Automated escalation of overdue safety actions and permit-to-work controls prevent high-risk activities from proceeding without proper authorization. Better safety records also reduce insurance premiums and protect the business from regulatory penalties.
Construction payment cycles are notoriously slow, often because payment applications and supporting documentation are submitted late or are incomplete. Digitizing the payment certification process — with automatic compilation of supporting evidence, approval workflows, and submission tracking — accelerates the cycle from measurement to payment. Subcontractors also benefit from faster certified payment, improving site relationships and reducing the risk of disputes.
Giving project managers a combined view of actual progress, costs incurred, and forecast-to-complete allows them to identify budget and schedule problems weeks earlier than traditional reporting processes would permit. Early identification of overruns enables corrective action — scope negotiation, resource reallocation, subcontract renegotiation — before problems become unrecoverable. Management teams also make better resource allocation decisions across the portfolio when they can see project performance in real time.
Estimating and tendering teams that have access to well-organized historical cost data from past projects can price new work more accurately and competitively. Digital tender management platforms also reduce the administrative effort involved in managing subcontractor queries, issuing addenda, and comparing bids. Faster, more accurate tendering directly contributes to winning more contracts at healthier margins.
