Built for them. Proven by them.
Real stories from construction teams across Africa who use BuildPal to deliver better projects, every day.
"Before BuildPal, our Monday morning meeting was 2 hours of everyone arguing about whose spreadsheet was right. Now we spend 20 minutes looking at the same dashboard and making decisions. That alone has paid for the platform."

How BuildPal helped one contractor manage twice the work
The challenge: 12 sites, 1 overloaded PM
Horizon was running 12 concurrent projects across Rwanda when their Programme Director resigned. The new PM inherited a mess of spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads, and paper site diaries. Nobody knew where any project actually stood.
The solution: one platform for every site
Within 3 months of deploying BuildPal, all 12 sites were logging daily diaries on mobile, attendance was GPS-verified, and the finance team had live budget vs. actuals for every project. The PM went from working 60-hour weeks to 45.
The result: a second PM hire avoided
The MD calculated that BuildPal made their existing PM productive enough to handle 12 projects instead of the 6 industry average. At a senior PM salary, that's a significant cost saving — in addition to the time saved and the client satisfaction uplift.
