The Control Problem

How subcontractors lose control today

Subcontractors rely on fragmented operational tools. Without a shared operating system, this chaos leads to lost control.

Labour

Transport

Compliance

Inventory

Finance

Nothing connects them

Missed labour signals

Lost variations

Compliance exposure

Margin erosion

Platform Architecture

From site activity to margin visibility

The Baton architecture turns site activity into structured operational records, then into commercial intelligence and profit visibility.

“I hate the term game-changer, because it’s so overused. But I can’t think of a better way to describe what Baton brings to the market. When I was scaling TRAD Scaffolding, this type of system would have been invaluable.”

Operational Workflows

Structured from project data, not manual forms

Every workflow already carries the granular work details and expected budget from the project. Site teams confirm what happened - Baton captures the whole process.

Showing 3 of 100+ operational workflows

Built from your Project Data

Quotes, pricing lines, tasks, work packages and budgets are already defined - workflows inherit this structure automatically.
