Our math, in the open

Time savings assume 230 working days per year and 50 payable weeks. Field supervisor rates are benchmarked to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (May 2025), first-line supervisors of construction trades, plus a standard labor burden. Back-office time is valued at a $35/hr loaded rate. Software consolidation assumes $5,000/yr per replaced subscription. Payroll accuracy assumes recovery of a 0.5% error rate — the conservative end of industry estimates. OSHA penalty maximums per osha.gov, effective for citations issued in 2026. This calculator is a model, not a quote; your results will vary with your operation.

The Five ROI Pillars

Where the savings actually come from

The calculator above models your operation. These are the five places FieldFlō recovers time, money, and margin for demolition, abatement, and remediation contractors — and the industry data behind each one.

1
Time Saved in the Field

FieldFlō customers cut daily reporting from 45 minutes to under 10 — giving every foreman back nearly 3 hours a week.

The industry problem: construction professionals spend 35% of their time on non-optimal work — over 14 hours per person, per week — with 5.5 of those hours just searching for project information.Source: FMI / PlanGrid, “Construction Disconnected,” 2018
2
Time Saved in the Back Office

Payroll that used to take days now closes in hours — timesheets flow straight from the field, no re-entry, no chasing signatures.

The industry problem: industry studies put mid-size contractors at 12–18 hours per week on manual payroll processing — much of it spent chasing paper timesheets that are far less accurate than digital capture.Source: industry payroll benchmark studies
3
Money Saved on Compliance

A single OSHA citation can run $16,550 to $165,514+. FieldFlō keeps certifications, training records, and safety logs inspection-ready — so one avoided citation pays for the platform many times over.

The stakes: penalties are assessed per violation, not per inspection — and for demolition, abatement, and remediation work, EPA NESHAP penalties accrue per day, while stop-work orders often cost more than the fine itself.Source: osha.gov, 2026 penalty levels
4
Risk Reduction Through Documentation

FieldFlō flags every expiring cert before it becomes a citation — and when the inspector shows up, your team pulls any document in seconds, from the job site, not the office.

The industry problem: poor project data and miscommunication cause 48% of all rework in U.S. construction — $31.3 billion a year. Bad data alone costs contractors roughly 0.7% of revenue in avoidable rework.Sources: FMI / PlanGrid, 2018; FMI / Autodesk, “Harnessing the Data Advantage in Construction,” 2021
5
Money Saved Through Consolidation

One platform replaces the four or five point solutions most contractors juggle for timekeeping, safety, documents, and scheduling — one login, one invoice, one source of truth.

The math: most contractors pay for separate timekeeping, safety, document, and scheduling tools. Consolidating eliminates overlapping subscriptions — and the bigger win is that field data, safety records, and payroll finally live in one place, so nothing gets re-entered and nothing falls between systems.

Time-savings figures reflect reported FieldFlō customer experience; industry statistics are drawn from the named public studies above. OSHA penalty maximums per osha.gov, effective for citations issued in 2026.
