Software for Subcontractors
The realities of the construction industry
Construction sites are fast-paced, dynamic environments where programmes are critical and new issues arise daily. Multiple trades coordinate across their different responsibilities, unified by a shared goal: delivering quality work, on time, with maximum transparency.
As a subcontractor, you operate at the heart of this pace, balancing modern construction demands while keeping projects moving forward. This involves:
Managing multiple projects
Keeping your teams in sync
Demonstrating completed work
Maintaining safety standards and compliance
Developing relationships that build trust
Success requires systems that work as hard as you do. Software that simplifies your workflows, streamlines operations and fits the way jobs actually get done.
The problem with legacy tech
The construction industry isn’t short of technology. It’s short of the right technology. Most software doesn’t work the way you need it to.
Too many construction tools were built by construction companies as point solutions for their own operational challenges. They solved immediate problems, but over time became complicated, inconsistent and hard to rely on. And when tools fail, trust erodes—and in construction, lost trust means lost money.
You deserve technology built specifically for the way you really work—not repurposed.
The Onetrace difference
Onetrace is a dedicated software company building solutions specifically for subcontractors. This focus drives everything we do:
We prioritise the user experience, making our products fast, reliable and easy to interact with.
We design our products to perform under site pressure and unpredictability
We build technology that feels invisible, supporting your work rather than getting in the way
We understand these realities because we've lived them. That perspective shapes every decision we make. We are a true software company, uniquely equipped to deliver technology you can depend on.
What we believe
Our ethos is simple. Every part of Onetrace must pass three non-negotiable tests:
Performance is built in, not bolted on. Speed keeps workflows moving and captures critical information in real time.
Software should be easy to learn and hard to get wrong. Intuitive design prevents mistakes before they happen.
Systems that work when you need them. Data is always available, reports generate instantly, and compliance records stay intact.
Fast. Simple. Reliable. These aren't marketing lines. They're the foundation of how we build.
Building the future
The industry is evolving. Programmes are tighter, compliance is stricter, and clients expect greater transparency. Success belongs to subcontractors with systems they can trust.
Across every trade the challenge remains the same: How do you deliver quality work efficiently while maintaining the documentation and professionalism that modern construction demands?
Onetrace answers this question with technology already trusted by thousands of subcontractors.
We let others lead with their construction credentials. We lead with our software expertise—because building great technology requires deep knowledge of code, systems, security and scalability.
Subcontractors who use Onetrace don’t just keep up with the industry—they set the standard.
