Sitemetric badging

The market leader in workforce badging and access for construction.

Sitemetric produces roughly 55,000 badges a month for jobsites across the country. Each one ties a worker to access control, headcount and safety on one platform, and can be printed right at your gate.

The problem

Most badging still runs on paper, or on a phone.

Sign-in sheets, laminated cards and phone-only apps leave the same gaps. The line at the gate backs up, crews often start over on each new project, and when something goes wrong, it's hard to say who is on site.

At the gate

  • Stalled turnstiles and manual check-ins slow the start of a shift
  • Crews often repeat the same paperwork on each new project
  • Credentials get checked by eye, if they get checked

After the gate

  • Headcount gets rebuilt from sign-in sheets
  • Records get pieced together when someone asks
  • In an emergency, finding people takes too long
Why a physical badge

One badge, from the gate to each zone on site.

Phone-only systems need an app on each worker's smartphone. RFID cards stop at the gate. A Sitemetric badge is read at the gate and detected across the site, with no app to install.

Security perspective
"A visible, physical badge does work a phone can't. Guards can spot the unbadged from across the site, and a printed photo matches the face in front of them."

Onsite printing

A finished badge in about 23 seconds, printed at your gate

The Sitemetric onsite ID printing station captures the worker's photo and prints a full-color badge cover, synced to the platform in real time. It sets up in a booth, a trailer or on a portable table, and moves as the site changes.

  • About 23 seconds per badge cover
  • Customer branding, trade colors and training tags on each badge

Safety

A badge that helps responders find your crew.

Workers wear their badge every shift, like the rest of their PPE, which makes it a dependable way to know who is on site. Site sensors around the jobsite detect the badge, so in an emergency you can find people.

  • Detected by site sensors around the jobsite
  • Helps locate a worker in an emergency
  • Identifies a worker on sight, with one tap to their emergency contact
  • Badge scans confirm who has reached the muster point

Integrated Construction Intelligence

The badge powers the whole platform.

One badge connects access control, headcount, safety and messaging on a single platform.

Zone intelligence

See your site, zone by zone

Site sensors detect badges in each zone, building a live picture of who is on site, where, and for how long.

  • Can work across your jobsites, including beyond the turnstile
  • Each badged worker feeds headcount and hours
  • Credentials and entry history on one worker record

At the gate

Read at the entry point

Connected turnstiles and scanners read the badge and record attendance as workers come through.

Messaging

Your access list is your texting list

Mass texting lists sync with your access control list automatically, so the people you can reach are the people badged onto your site.

How it works

Pre-registered crews spend less time at the gate.

Most of the work happens before a worker reaches the gate. Registration and credential checks move ahead of arrival, so the gate is where workers pick up a badge, not where the paperwork starts.

step one

Register before arrival

Workers self-register on their own phone and complete onboarding before their first day, so large crews clear the gate without a bottleneck.

step two

Verify credentials

Credentials are managed in one place, and OSHA 10 and other certifications can be verified in the field.

step three

Badge at the gate

Badges print onsite, can work across your jobsites, and feed headcount and hours from the first scan.

Certification management

Every certification, tied to the badge

Certifications are captured at registration and linked to each worker's badge, so expiring credentials surface before they cost you a crew.

  • Alerts 30 days before a certification expires
  • Expiring certifications by worker and company
  • Credentials checked in the field from the Sitemetric app

Access Control Officers

Access Control Officers at the gate

Sitemetric's Access Control Officers run the gate and manage badging and onboarding, so your team is not staffing the registration table.

  • Badging and onboarding handled onsite
  • Visitor and delivery logs kept alongside the crew
  • Personnel trained for your site

Badging FAQs

Answers for general contractors, safety leads and site teams weighing up a badging system.

Construction badging software is a system that registers workers, verifies their credentials and issues the badge that grants jobsite access. Sitemetric ties that badge to turnstiles, headcount and hours reporting, so the gate and the record match. Read the badging guide for a step-by-step explanation of the process.

Roughly 55,000 a month, or around 1,800 a day on average. Each badge is created in Sitemetric's enrollment and badge management software and synced to the platform in real time, so it is ready at the turnstile and counted in headcount once it is issued. More than 1.5 million workers are on the platform.

Yes. Depending on what a site needs, workers can carry a physical badge, a digital badge on the phone, or both, all tied to the same worker record. Sites that rely on visual ID at the gate, or that want badges detected by site sensors in an emergency, typically choose the physical badge.

Yes. The onsite printing station holds 100 standard PVC cards and prints full-color, 300 dpi badge covers with barcode and QR codes for turnstile and reader access, so no separate encoder is needed. Each station reports its health remotely and sends an SMS alert if it goes offline.

Yes. Registration, onboarding and pre-clearance can all happen before a worker reaches the jobsite. That moves the paperwork away from the gate, so the first morning on a new project is spent getting badged rather than filling out forms at a folding table.

Yes. One badge can work across the jobsites where Sitemetric is deployed, whether or not a site has turnstiles. Registration and credentials carry from project to project, so a worker who has registered once does not start from scratch when the crew moves to the next job.

Sitemetric checks each worker's credentials against the requirements your project sets, including OSHA 10 and other certifications. They can be verified at registration and again in the field, so the person at the gate is not relying on a photocopied card.

Yes. Because the texting list comes from your badge data, it includes the workers badged onto your site, and people who have not been onsite for a while drop off on their own. Badging, access control and worker registration are what make that possible. See mass texting.

Sitemetric's Access Control Officers can. Beyond badging, they handle parking, access control and reporting at the gate. Because they are already working the jobsite, an officer can respond in person when something is flagged, so badging does not become another task for your superintendent.

It depends on the site, the size of the crew and the credentials your project requires. Pre-registration handles most of the work before anyone arrives, and where a site has an onsite printing station, the badge itself prints in about 23 seconds.

Yes, and not only those two. For systems beyond Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud, Sitemetric builds custom API-connected workflows to fit your reporting requirements, so project teams keep working in the tools they already use.

Badging establishes who a worker is and whether their credentials meet your project's requirements. Access control uses that badge at the entry point, where turnstiles or scanners read it and record the entry. Sitemetric runs both on one platform, so the badge and the access record are part of the same history.

One badge for the whole jobsite.
