      Struxhub is a jobsite management platform powered by real-time construction logistics (Fig. 1). We help builders streamline the coordination of materials deliveries, permits, inspections, and schedules.

      Materials Deliveries

      Delivery Workflow

      The delivery workflow involves several steps:

      1. Requester fills out and submits a delivery request form.
      2. Dock Master on the GC approves, changes, or denies the request.
      3. Any User marks the vehicle on-site. Requester can cancel before arrival.
      4. Requester or a designated Inspector can pass/fail a delivery inspection.
      5. Any User can mark the delivery done.
