Bolt overview

What is Bolt?

Bolt is a construction management solution designed for subcontractors in the volume home and multifamily building industries. The mobile-optimized platform helps electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and concrete subcontractors manage all aspects of the contracting business including planning jobs, communicating within the company, and executing work effectively.

Bolt’s scheduling feature allows users to create and share crew schedules online via a drag and drop interface. Crew members can access their schedule and daily tasks at any time, as well as any necessary job-related documents or plan markups. The builder system integration enables users to download work orders straight from the builder, and Bolt’s reporting tools help simplify workload management.

The solution also includes features such as at-a-glance visuals that show the status of each work order, helping users prioritize tasks. Bolt’s auto-confirm functionality helps eliminate dry runs to the job, while labor and material tracking ensures that subcontractors have the correct materials for the job that day. Document management features keep all job-related files in one centralized location, eliminating disorganized paperwork and potential miscommunications with customers.

Bolt’s native iOS app supports all of the platform’s prime features. Whether users are at the office or out on the field, they can make on-the-job changes directly from their iPad or iPhone. The QuickBooks integration feature enables subcontractors to invoice customers directly from Bolt.
