Basset review
Plan-based field reporting with crew, equipment, time-card, and production tracking.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
For self-performing heavy civil and underground utility contractors, Basset centers field operations on plan sheets. Foremen can mark work progress, record crew and equipment by cost code, and submit daily reports with attached plans. Office teams receive progress, production information, crew hours, and equipment data, with PDF report generation. The workflow suits contractors who need field records tied to work locations and cost codes, rather than a broad construction-management suite. Its iOS app listing also describes safety documentation, photos, production tracking, and project management.
Basset’s published plan is $60 USD per user per month, billed monthly, and highlights field operations and plan-sheet reporting. The product is accepting early-access requests. That makes the pricing straightforward to understand, but the per-user monthly cost can add up as field teams grow. The iOS app is listed as free, but accounts are provided by participating organizations; that is distinct from the commercial plan and does not establish a free plan for the product. Buyers should assess whether the plan-sheet workflow and field records justify the per-user expense for their crew.
The standout focus is turning field activity into structured reporting: daily reports can include plan sheets and export to PDF, while automatic time-card generation and production analytics connect work records with crew hours and outputs by employee, material, and activity. Basset also describes AI-assisted detection of utility conflicts and clearance issues on plans, alongside safety forms and field-photo organization. Its limitations narrow the fit: coverage is iOS-only and no integrations are described in its positioning. Contractors seeking wider platform support or connected workflows should look elsewhere; teams that prioritize plan-based progress, time, and production records may find Basset a more relevant fit.
