Field tickets
Construction Field Ticket Software
Field ticket software is what crews and GCs search when they mean signed extras - not when they say LEM or T&M. The document still has to carry who did the work, what ran, what was installed, and who signed. Software that only tracks tasks or punch lists is not field ticket software for billing.
What a construction field ticket is for
A field ticket records billable or extra work that happened outside the base contract: overtime, unforeseen conditions, owner-directed work, or force account. GCs and owners often ask for a signed field ticket before they will process a change. The ticket is the field evidence; the change order is the commercial wrap later.
Extra-work tickets and GC workflows
GC extras need a clean path from crew to superintendent to billing. Field ticket software should let the sub write the ticket, the client sign, and both sides keep the PDF. It should not require the sub to live inside the GC's full project-management suite just to document one extra. SubTrack is built for that lightweight ticket path.
How field tickets relate to T&M and LEM
Many field tickets are T&M tickets. In civil and utility work they are often LEMs. The words change by region; the job does not. If your GC asks for a signed field ticket, you still need labor, equipment, materials, rates, and an approval. Glossary pages define the words. These product pages explain which tool fits the document you have to produce.
What field ticket software is not
It is not a daily report app, not a punch-list tool, and not a residential selections portal. Those products solve different jobs. If you need plans, tasks, and punch lists, Fieldwire-style tools fit. If you need signed billable field tickets with labor, equipment, materials, and rates, you want field ticket software aimed at extras and T&M.
