Construction Software Companies & Consultants in Beaumont, TX

mJob (formally mJob Corporation, also marketed as mJobTime) is a Beaumont, Texas software developer that builds field management tools exclusively for contractors. Its platform centers on construction time tracking, but it extends well beyond the timesheet, giving builders a single application for recording crew hours, monitoring machinery, controlling materials and gathering jobsite reports. The firm deliberately stays out of retail, hospitality and other sectors, so every feature is designed around the realities of building projects.

Software Capabilities

The product line is organized into four main modules, each with supporting features that buyers can evaluate individually:

• Labor: a GPS-enabled mobile clock-in app, fingerprint-based biometric clocking, geofenced job boundaries, management of differing pay and bill rates for union and vendor contracts, automated rules for overtime and breaks, and tools that help with wage and hour compliance
• Equipment: logging of machine hours and location, operating cost and budget visibility, and preventive maintenance records
• Materials: usage tracking by project, requisitions submitted by field crews, and purchase orders created on site
• Reporting: digital daily logs, configurable forms for safety and inspections, analytics dashboards, shared plan and spec documents, instant alerts and project cost tracking

A newer, lighter offering called mJob Essentials targets smaller, growing crews that want simpler timekeeping. The company also maintains PowerTrack, a product family it gained when it bought that business unit in June 2020.

Integrations and Services

Because hours and costs captured in the field ultimately feed payroll and accounting, mJob connects to a broad set of back-office systems. Listed partners include Sage 100 Contractor, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, Procore, Viewpoint Vista and Spectrum, ADP, Acumatica, Foundation, CMiC, Oracle, Computer Guidance and Explorer. Around the software, the team provides implementation help, customization work and ongoing technical support.

Existing customers submit and follow tickets through a Zendesk-based portal that also hosts a self-service knowledge base, and the support staff is located in the United States.

Background and Approach

The business was founded in 1994, giving it more than three decades in construction technology. Beyond its Texas headquarters, it lists additional offices in Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Michigan and Washington. Constructech magazine once named it among its 50 Hottest Companies. Published customer stories feature contractors such as Gaylor Electric, Hellas Construction, Lewis Construction, JPC Group and All Seasons Landscaping, spanning electrical, concrete, general construction and landscaping work.

The company describes simplicity as its guiding design rule, reasoning that a field tool workers find awkward will simply be ignored. It also says its sales representatives are told not to pitch capabilities that do not yet exist, and that it begins conversations by assessing whether the software actually fits a prospect's problems rather than pushing a sale.

For contractors weighing time tracking vendors, that consultative stance, the deep ERP connectivity and the construction-only focus are the main points of distinction.
