How Civil Construction works in SkillScorer
Score
Each worker in a site is scored on the Civil Construction skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank workers, compare two side by side, or compare your sites against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Civil Construction skills need attention. Reports also follow each foreman's site.
