Flexible Digital Forms vs. Total Operational Control
Dashpivot is an excellent tool for digitising paper forms and capturing basic site logs. But when your business requires live OEM telematics, automated EBA payroll, and real-time job costing connected directly to your ERP, forms alone aren’t enough. Discover why growing civil and mining contractors choose Cloudcon.

Where the Cloudcon architecture makes the difference
Connected Heavy Fleet & OEM Telematics
Beyond just capturing equipment notes from the field, Cloudcon connects directly to the heartbeat of your machinery. We pull live engine hours and fault codes via API from CAT, Komatsu, Volvo, and John Deere to completely automate your preventative maintenance schedules.
Native Job Costing & EBA Payroll
Field data should translate directly into financial action. Cloudcon automatically converts site hours into complex union EBA payroll calculations (travel, overtime, penalties) and maps your labour and plant costs directly to your live project budgets.
Proven Remote Offline Sync
Engineered from day one to operate in complete data blackspots. Operators on remote mine sites and regional civil corridors can complete pre-starts, dockets, and complex ITPs offline, with the database syncing seamlessly in the background once reconnected.
Seamless Transition
