About this app

Building Start is a field services platform used in construction and engineering to perform centralized test plan authoring and management and push the test plan from the cloud to field devices to perform on-site field testing digitally. Applications include Airnab and BuildingTest. This can be used for paperless air and water balancing and paperless commissioning.

Once a field technician has been assigned a project, they can receive the project on their field device and perform the test plan and responses offline and synchronize them back into the cloud when they complete their work for the day.

Building Start is widely used in the construction industry with over 30,000 construction projects digitally captured in such efforts as Test, Adjust & Balance (TAB), Building Startup, Building Commissioning (LEED, Green Building,etc) and Energy Audits.

This product made my job as a tab technician way easier and it made me more efficient. I could not recommend it enough.

Needs work, I've used this for two years now and crashes are quite frequent (five times a day). My company uses this but I'd much rather make my own excel sheets so it can actually be manipulated and changed to user preferences.
