What BuildOps is
BuildOps is an operations platform for commercial contractors that brings service work, construction projects, and financial workflows together. The company describes its audience as commercial contractors, including multi-trade service and construction businesses. Service management covers work order closeout, asset management, preventive maintenance, scheduling and dispatch, purchasing, and inventory. Project tools include field execution, resource planning, document control, materials and subcontracts, and project financials.
The platform also handles invoicing, procurement and inventory, time tracking, quoting, CRM, pipeline management, and the handoff from sales to operations. Its built-in OpsAI is described as taking on busywork, flagging risks, and supporting field, service, finance, and sales workflows. BuildOps connects with tools such as QuickBooks, Sage, NetSuite, Viewpoint Spectrum, Viewpoint Vista, Bluon, Inspect Point, ServiceChannel, Coast, Miter, Avalara, and Kojo; integrations support two-way data syncing.
Technicians can use the mobile app for work orders, asset history, time tracking, quotes, invoices, photos, and reports. It supports offline work and syncs after reconnecting. The browser version needs no desktop installer. The mobile app requires iOS 16 or newer or Android 9 or newer. Plans can cover service, projects, or both, though project features depend on the plan. Pricing is tailored to crew size, trades, modules, and integrations, and every plan includes implementation and onboarding support.
