Material Intelligence for Construction

You're losing money on material you already own.

Superintendents and PMs spend hours tracking down material that's already on the job — or ordering more of what's sitting in a trailer two lots over. SiteIQ closes that gap.

The Problem
Three ways jobs bleed material money
01
Material walks — or just disappears
Nobody stole it. It's on a trailer, in the wrong bay, or it got sent back by accident. But without a system, it's gone from your job.
02
You reorder what you have
The field calls in a shortage. The PM cuts a PO. Closeout comes and you find a pallet of the same material that was never logged in.
03
Closeout always hurts
The numbers never add up the way they should. You know there's waste, but you can't prove where it went — or prevent it next time.
How SiteIQ Works
Track it in. Track it out. Close out clean.
📦
Tag it when it lands
Material gets logged at delivery — by the super or foreman, right from their phone. No new hardware required.
📍
Track it as it moves
Transfers between trailers, lots, and phases get recorded. Everyone knows what's where without a phone-tag chain.
📊
Close out clean
PMs see real variance at closeout — what was ordered vs. used vs. recovered. The data follows the job.

How SiteIQ works on a real job

Walk through a typical day from delivery to closeout — and see where the money stops leaking.

01
Material hits the gate — log it in 30 seconds
When a delivery arrives, the foreman opens SiteIQ on their phone and scans or types the PO number. The material is tagged to that job, that phase, and that location instantly.
No paper delivery tickets that get lost in a truck
Ties directly to your PO so variance is automatic
Works offline — syncs when you have signal
Log Delivery
PO #: 2024-4471
Material: 4" EMT Conduit — 240 sticks
Location: Trailer 2 / Bay A
✓ Log Delivery
02
Material moves — so does the record
When material gets pulled from a trailer and sent to another phase or location, a quick transfer log keeps the chain of custody intact. No more "I thought it was on Lot 3."
Supers can see all material across all active jobs

Closeout that actually makes sense
When the job wraps, SiteIQ generates a variance report — what was delivered, what was used, what's left, and what the unrecovered value is. Finally, numbers that tell the real story.

Our Story

Built by someone who ran the jobs — and got tired of the same losses.

SiteIQ started with a simple question: why does every job close out with material we can't account for? After years in the field as a GC project manager, we stopped accepting "that's just how it goes" as an answer.

Nathan Shaffer
Founder — GC Project Manager
Nathan is 1.5 years into managing large-scale commercial office projects — and it didn't take long to see the pattern. Material waste shows up on every job, everyone in the field knows it's a problem, and nobody has a real system to fix it. He built SiteIQ because he got tired of accepting it as the cost of doing business.
Why We Exist
Mission & Vision
🎯
Our Mission
To give construction teams the material visibility they need to stop waste before it happens — not discover it at closeout. Every job should close with numbers that make sense and data that makes the next one better.
🔭
Our Vision
A construction industry where material waste is measured, understood, and systematically reduced — not accepted as the cost of doing business. We believe the field deserves tools as smart as the people running it.
What We Stand For
Our Values
Field First
If a superintendent won't use it in the field, it doesn't ship. Every feature gets tested against the reality of a job site, not a conference room.
Honest Data
We show you the real numbers — even when they're ugly. Accurate data at closeout is worth more than a dashboard that makes you feel good.
Built With, Not For
We're in discovery mode because we believe the people doing the work know the problem better than anyone. We build what the field actually needs.
The Full Story

Why we're building this now

You don't need 20 years in construction to see the pattern. Within the first few months on large-scale commercial projects, it was already obvious: material waste happens on every job, everyone in the field knows it, and nobody has a real system to stop it.

"We'd close out a job and find $20,000 in conduit we couldn't account for. Every time. We just accepted it."

After job after job watching the same thing repeat — over-ordering to cover for missing material, phone calls trying to track down what was on which trailer, closeout reports that raised more questions than they answered — it became clear that the industry didn't have a material tracking problem. It had a visibility problem.

The tools existed to fix it. The phones were already in everyone's pockets. What was missing was something purpose-built for the way construction actually works — fast, offline-capable, simple enough for a foreman to use between pours, and smart enough to give a PM real data at the end of the job.

That's SiteIQ. We're early. We're talking to the field before we build. And we're committed to getting it right.
