General Contracting
General contracting software that knows every scope in every project — down to the permit number.
Property, scopes, work items, and service plans — all first-class. AI dispatch, project scheduling, good-better-best estimates, invoicing, and payments in one platform — the general contracting business software residential and light-commercial contractors actually run on.
Trusted by GC shops
from a two-crew team to a multi-state franchise.
01 The general contracting data model
Every property, every scope, every work item — structured, not a notes field.
FieldCamp ships a general contracting layout the day you sign in: a Property → Scope → Work Item hierarchy with typed fields for work type, permit number, start date, and warranty — the project-level tracking the enterprise platforms reserve for enterprise contracts. It doubles as your general contracting CRM software — every property, owner, and service plan on one record. Site history rolls up to each scope automatically, and the moment an inspection gap opens, FieldCamp flags it and drafts the follow-up.

FieldCamp caught the gap. Permit open + 9 months since last site visit — a follow-up inspection visit was scheduled and a scope-completion estimate drafted for approval.
Linked records
Work items link to their scope, scopes to the property. Open one project and see every phase, inspection status, and visit in place.
Typed fields
Work type, permit number, start date, completion date, warranty expiry, inspection status — structured fields with real types, never a free-text dump.
Service history
Every site visit rolls up to the scope it touched. Inspection gaps past your threshold raise a flag the crew sees on arrival.
Shared record views
One record per property and scope — specs, site log, files, permits — the same source your office, dispatchers, and crews work from.
02 Lead & book
Every lead, every channel — answered and booked.
WhatsApp, SMS, Instagram, Google, web, and the phone land in one inbox. The AI receptionist answers in seconds, books by service area, and the lead arrives already matched to the property and scope on file — so nothing slips and no call goes unanswered.

03 General contracting scheduling & dispatch
Two minutes to fill the board. Then it shows its work.
FieldCamp is general contracting scheduling software with an AI dispatcher that knows the crew is 80% full before adding the next job. It assigns by crew skill — framing cert, concrete pour, comfort with light commercial — plus zone, drive time, and capacity. Every card lands with a one-click reason.
Auto mode fills the week the moment a job is created. Assist mode queues every assignment for your dispatcher to review.
| Crew | Speciality | AM | PM | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
MT Marcus T. | Crew A · Framing lead | Framing install 7–11 AM 18m to next | Roof sheathing 1–3 PM | $4.2K / $5.0K84% full |
PK Priya K. | Crew B · Concrete | Slab pour diag. 8–10 AM 11m to next | Foundation check 1–3 PM | $2.8K / $4.0K70% full |
JR James R. | Crew C · Finishing | Plan visit 8–9 AM 24m to next | Drywall hang 11–2 PM | $3.1K / $4.0K77% full |
04 General contracting estimating software
Good, better, best — approved on the job site.
Build a good-better-best estimate from the flat-rate pricebook, attach the site photo of the scope, and let the customer approve and e-sign on the spot — it converts to an invoice in one tap. FieldCamp even drafts the quote from what the work-item record already knows.

06 General contracting maintenance software
Maintenance plans that actually get scheduled.
FieldCamp is the general contracting maintenance software that turns service plans into scheduled, recurring revenue. Service plan is a first-class field on the property — Active, Lapsed, or None. Plan visits get scheduled automatically; lapsed plans land in the win-back queue. The AI receptionist knows the plan when they call, and so does the crew on site.
Recurring billing, visit chains, and reminder texts are built in — not bolted on through a third-party automation.

08 Why it matters
Three reasons general contractors switch. And stay.
Every property has a story.
When the call comes in, the crew sees every scope, every permit, every warranty on that address — without scrolling through a notes field. Diagnoses get faster. Recommendations get smarter.
Maintenance plans pay for themselves.
Plan status is a real field, not a tag. Visits chain. Lapsed plans land in a win-back queue. The AI receptionist upsells the right plan based on the scope age it can see.
Built around your shop, not theirs.
Need permit logs, lien waiver tracking, or change-order workflows? Add a custom object — same engine, same dispatch board, same reports. It's the general contracting field service software that scales from a two-crew shop to a multi-state contractor, with no separate compliance product to license.

10 FAQ
Common questions general contractors ask.
General contracting software is the system that runs a general contracting business — scheduling and dispatching crews, tracking properties and the scopes of work at each one, sending estimates and invoices, processing payments, and reporting on the health of the business. As all-in-one general contracting business software, it replaces separate scheduling, CRM, estimating, and invoicing tools. FieldCamp is general contracting software built around a real data model: every property has scopes, every scope has work items, every work item has a site history. That structure makes project management faster, maintenance plans easier to sell, and recurring revenue more predictable.
Yes — FieldCamp is general contracting maintenance software. Service plan is a first-class field on the property — Active, Lapsed, or None — not a tag bolted on. When a plan is active, visits chain automatically on the recurrence you set (twice a year, quarterly, monthly), so general contracting maintenance scheduling runs itself. Reminder texts go out 48 hours before. Lapsed plans land in a win-back queue with the AI receptionist primed to renew them when the customer calls in.
The best general contracting scheduling software fills the board the way a seasoned dispatcher would — matching each job to the right crew by skill and certification, service zone, truck capacity, customer time window, and drive time, not just dropping pins on a calendar. FieldCamp's AI dispatcher does that in about two minutes and shows the reasoning behind every assignment, so the schedule the whole shop trusts is built before the first crew rolls.
The best general contracting dispatch software fills the board considering everything a real dispatcher weighs — crew skills (framing cert, concrete pour, type of work they're comfortable on), service zones, capacity per crew in dollars and jobs, customer time windows, and drive time between stops. FieldCamp's AI Dispatcher does that in two minutes and shows the reasoning behind every assignment. You can run it on Auto (it assigns the moment a job is created) or Assist (every assignment queues for review).
Yes — that's the heart of how FieldCamp models general contracting. Each property holds scopes, each scope holds work-item records with Work type (Framing, Roofing, Foundation, Electrical rough-in, Plumbing rough-in, Finishing), Permit number, Start date, Target completion, Warranty expiry, and an Inspection status pill (Passed, Pending, Overdue). Site history rolls up automatically; gaps over a configurable threshold trigger a warning the crew sees on arrival.
FieldCamp's custom-objects engine lets you add permit logs, lien waiver records, change-order tracking, and warranty registrations as objects on the same platform — same reports, same dispatch board, same audit trail. You don't need a separate compliance product; the data lives next to the property and scope it relates to.
Yes — estimates with good-better-best proposals, flat-rate pricebooks, photo-attached line items, and e-signature; invoices generated from the field with branded templates; payments via Tap-to-Pay, ACH, credit card, and Apple Pay; financing offered inline; and QuickBooks Online + Desktop sync. Invoices auto-charge for service-plan customers.
General contracting field service management software is the all-in-one system that connects the office (scheduling, CRM, invoicing) to the field (mobile app, GPS, photos, payment). FieldCamp is built to fit shops from a two-crew team to a multi-state franchise. The data model and AI dispatch scale; pricing starts at $25/user/month and we set up your data model with you on the onboarding call.
