Construction Software for Canadian Contractors

Why FastBuild is built Canada-first: crew hours in a Canadian pay-period workflow, winter and multi-site realities, and browser access for crews that carry phones, not ruggedized tablets.

foundation

FastBuild is built for Canadian construction companies, and that shows up in the details rather than in a flag on the homepage.

Pay periods and the hours that feed them. Canadian construction payroll runs on hours: regular hours, overtime thresholds that differ by province, and period totals that must be defensible when an employee asks. FastBuild records attendance per job site with timestamps and produces hours per employee per period, which is the input a Canadian payroll process needs. The Canadian Payroll product area is part of the platform; it is available on paid plans, and paid plans are not currently purchasable, so hours export and review are the practical path today.

Multi-site reality. Canadian crews move: a concrete crew on one site in the morning and another in the afternoon, a foreman covering three sites in a week, a subcontractor whose workers appear on a general contractor's site. Site-attributed attendance is what makes those movements accountable, because the hours belong to a site rather than to a memory.

Season and geography. Work is seasonal and weather-dependent. Daily reports captured at the site document what actually happened on a day the schedule slipped, and they carry the site detail a claim or a client conversation needs later.

Access without procurement. Many Canadian crews carry personal phones rather than company tablets. FastBuild runs in a browser as a web app, so no install is required and no device fleet has to be purchased before the first shift can be recorded.

Canadian data. FastBuild infrastructure and data handling are documented in the Privacy Policy. Prices on the pricing page are listed in Canadian dollars.

If you are a Canadian contractor evaluating this category, the useful test is narrow: can the software attribute hours to the right site, produce the period totals your payroll process needs, and get your crew to use it without a training week?
