Custom software for construction companies
Construction companies juggle quotes, site tracking, subcontracting and materials procurement across tools that rarely talk to each other. SapAngel designs custom management software around Mind, tailored to your trades, so every team works from the same data.
Frictions we see on construction sites
- Quotes are built in spreadsheets, disconnected from the works library and from real margins per line item.
- Site progress, photos and hours worked live in messaging apps, with no structured site diary.
- Progress invoices, retention and reverse-charge VAT are recalculated manually for every situation.
- Subcontractor compliance certificates and payments are tracked in parallel files, with no reminders.
- Materials orders and deliveries are reconciled against invoices well after the fact, if at all.
What Mind covers for construction
- Quantitative quotes: works library, fast take-off, margins per line item, a clean client-facing version.
- Site tracking: progress, photos, site diary, hours for crews and subcontractors.
- Progress invoicing: progress percentage, retention, reverse charge, automatic reminders.
- Time tracking & HR: hours per site, allowances, travel, weather stoppages, payroll export.
- Procurement & materials: supplier orders, delivery notes, receipts, invoice matching.
- Subcontracting: contracts, approvals, compliance certificates, payment tracking.
From brief to go-live

Build
Mind is configured around your works library, your site organisation and your subcontracting rules.
- 03
Go-live
Data migration, connection to Sage, EBP, Batigest or Onaya, and onboarding for site and back-office teams.
- 04
Continuous improvement
AI-assisted cost estimating and margin steering added once the core flows are stable.
What a dedicated software changes
Real-time site margins
Forecast versus actual margin visible per site, with drift alerts before it is too late.
Faster, cleaner invoicing
Progress invoices generated with retention and reverse charge handled automatically.
No more double entry

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How is Mind different from a standard construction software package?
Mind is built around your own works library, margin rules and site organisation rather than a generic template you have to adapt to. It ships in around three months at a fixed price, and you own the code from delivery.
Can it replace our current invoicing or accounting tool?
Not necessarily. Mind is designed to connect with Sage, EBP, Batigest or Onaya rather than replace them outright, so you keep your accounting setup while removing double entry on quotes, site data and invoicing.
Does it handle progress invoicing and retention?
Yes. Progress percentage, retention, reverse-charge VAT and automatic reminders are core to the progress invoicing module, built specifically for construction billing cycles.
What about subcontractor compliance tracking?
Contracts, approvals, compliance certificates and payment tracking are managed in one place, with reminders before documents expire, reducing your exposure on subcontracting compliance.
Can site teams use it without heavy training?
The site-facing parts — time logs, photos, site diary — are designed to be usable from a phone with minimal onboarding. Back-office modules receive more structured training during go-live.
