One map for lots, layers and QA evidence
Draw a control line or import your DXF, then map the work boundaries and see which layers are built, tested and ready for review. Keep original reports with each lot.

The whole corridor in one live picture
Inspect the lot register, construction categories and QA outcomes without leaving the map. Select any feature screenshot below to see it at full size.
ForgeLot as construction quality management softwareStart with or without a DXF
No survey file to hand? Draw a reference directly on the satellite map and start organising the work.
- Tap points along your site and drag bends to adjust
- Reverse the direction and choose a start chainage
- Or import a DXF and confirm its survey coordinate system
- Map-drawn references are approximate; verify dimensions on site
Full sizeChainage & control line
Lock a single control line and let chainage markers generate themselves.
- Pick and lock the alignment that everything else measures against
- Set a start chainage and see labels along the control line
- Set chainage spacing and snap to perpendicular cross-ticks
- Chainage stays consistent for every lot created afterwards
Full sizeVisual lot creation
Draw lots on the map with DXF snapping and curve following, or use chainage and offsets.
- Click corners and follow DXF curves to form the lot boundary
- Or enter from/to chainage and left/right offsets for a corridor lot
- Area is computed automatically, no manual measuring
- Split or adjust lot boundaries as scope changes on site
Full sizeLayer & status tracking
Every lot carries a construction layer and a status your whole team recognises.
- Topsoil strip, rip and recompact, subgrade, sub base, base and seal
- Track construction, test outcomes and release decisions separately
- Create sequential lots and construction lifts in bulk
- Full history of who changed what, and when
Full sizeVisual progress map
See the whole corridor coloured by status or layer, at a glance.
- Satellite or street basemaps underneath your design
- Colour lots by status or by construction layer
- Filter the map by chainage range, layer or status
- Click any lot for its full detail without leaving the map
Full sizeReporting & exports
Turn the register into something you can hand to a client or an auditor.
- Export the full lot register to CSV for further analysis
- Download a QA pack with a printable report, map and original test files
- Filter exports by status, layer or chainage before you send them
- Numbers match the map, there is only one source of truth
Full sizeKeep your project at hand in the field
Prepare a field copy while connected, then draw lots and record tests on your device when coverage drops. Pending work syncs when the service is reachable and ForgeLot is open. Live street and satellite imagery need a connection.
Responsive workspace
Layouts adapt to phone and tablet screens. A larger screen gives you more room for drawing boundaries and inspecting layer records.
Saved locally, queued to sync
Field mode keeps drawings, lots and reports on your device. See pending uploads and retain your draft if another engineer changes the project before you sync.
GPS site position
Turn on location to see your position, accuracy circle and nearest control-line chainage. Phone GPS is indicative and must not be used for survey set-out.
A lot of small features add up
Beyond the core workflow, ForgeLot is full of the small conveniences that save an engineer real time.
Automatic area calculation
Every lot's area is computed the moment its geometry is set.
Click-to-inspect lots
Tap any lot on the map to see its full history and detail.
Edit history
Review saved project revisions and recorded changes when handing work between shifts.
Team workspaces
Invite engineers, surveyors and QA staff into the same live project.
Role-aware access
Control who can edit lots versus who can only view the register.
Reference chainage
See approximate chainage extents alongside lot geometry, area and depth.
Fast lot search
Find a lot by chainage, layer or status in seconds.
Layer and QA colours
Switch between work-category colours and QA status colours.
Bulk export filters
Export exactly the slice of the register a client has asked for.
Standard civil layer set
Track the usual construction sequence from topsoil strip to base. Custom layer sets are on the roadmap.
Saved project workspaces
Keep each drawing and its locked control line in a separate saved project.
Status change guardrails
Keep status progression sensible without slowing anyone down.
Works with the projections Australian and New Zealand projects actually use
For DXF, confirm the design datum and grid zone. For map-drawn control, check your reference and dimensions on site before relying on the records. Check the alignment against known control rather than relying on the basemap alone.

Put your next project on the map.
No DXF needed. Draw your control line on the map, create work lots and keep every layer, test and report together.
