What is Blockchain, and Why Should You Care?
Imagine a notebook that everyone on your project team can read, but no one can erase or change what’s already written. That’s blockchain in simple terms.
For construction projects, this means creating a permanent, tamper-proof record of every measurement, every step, and every decision. No more lost paperwork. No more “he said, she said.” No more wondering if someone changed the numbers after the fact.
The Real Cost of Not Knowing
In construction, small mistakes become expensive problems:
Those problems grow exponentially when they affect the next phase of work. Without accurate documentation of every step, you have little choice but to pay the cost when something goes wrong.

How We’re Changing the Game
Chris Vaneman, our President, explains: “For nearly 2 decades I’ve openly stated the belief that we save our clients $2 for every $1 spent on our services. In a recent project, we saved them $6 for every $1 spent. Documenting and proving that used to be incredibly difficult. It depended on people remembering details or sifting through mountains of paperwork, both of which could be incomplete or inaccurate. Blockchain changes that dynamic, and we’re proud to share the incredible benefits with our partners.”
We’ve invested heavily in GRID (Geospatial Request and Inspection Dashboard), which uses blockchain technology to track and verify everything that happens on your project.
What Makes Blockchain Different
Think of it as an ironclad paper trail that proves exactly what happened, when it happened, and who was responsible. When we log measurements and protect the data on blockchain, the record is:
