What is MetaField?
MetaField is an industry-focused software platform that brings field, lab, office, reporting, and billing workflows together for geotechnical engineering, construction materials testing, and inspection firms. The platform supports the full project lifecycle, from project setup and scheduling to field data capture, lab testing, review, delivery, invoicing, and billing. Project management tools let teams configure workflows, permissions, specs, contacts, requirements, and home screens so every project starts with the right controls. Scheduling and dispatch features give schedulers a centralized view of staff availability, certifications, project history, work orders, and assignment status. Field inspection and testing tools allow staff to capture data from smartphones or tablets, work offline, use smart forms, record GPS locations, apply validations, use talk-to-text, and digitally sign reports before leaving the site. MetaField supports industry-standard forms aligned with ASTM, AASHTO, DOTs, and common testing workflows such as concrete breaks, boring logs, soil samples, and inspection records. Lab testing and management capabilities track samples through chain of custody, connect sample IDs with project details, schedule tests, capture results, and automatically populate reports. Review and delivery tools help project managers prioritize flagged items, approve findings, apply digital signatures or stamps, and send reports through email or a secure client portal. Invoicing and billing capabilities log work in real time, connect billable activity to work orders and tests, support flexible billing rates, and integrate with ERP or financial systems. MetaField adapts to local, regional, and national firms with configurable workflows, forms, approval chains, onboarding support, integrations, customer success, and in-app training.
