MetaField® is a game changer for construction materials testing firms

We offer a cloud-based software solution to efficiently collect, review, and electronically distribute test reports. MetaField® supports field professionals who enter test data and securely submit field reports at construction sites. Once reviewed, often before the technician even leaves the site, final reports including all field activity are created and sent electronically to clients as PDF files. Our system also captures supporting documentation, including photos and more detailed test reports, into the reviewed reports.

CMT is vital on a construction site to ensure all materials pass crucial building regulations and health and safety standards. The forms used by engineering services firms to capture field and lab data are highly regulated by governing bodies such as AASHTO, ASTM, and CSA. It is critical to maintain an accurate library of forms to minimize risk of liability for damage or injury.

It [MetaField] is very specific to construction materials testing, so it’s not trying to be all things to all people. We could envision our own processes within the product during the demo. We could see that it was going to be a good fit.
