Why heavy civil contractors choose Ditio over Procore
Procore is the most widely used construction management platform in the world, with over $1.3B in revenue and 3 million+ projects across 150+ countries. It excels at managing commercial building projects — RFIs, submittals, daily logs, change orders, and financials. For general contractors building offices, hospitals, and residential towers, Procore is a strong choice.
But heavy civil construction is a different world. Earthwork contractors, road builders, and infrastructure companies need tools designed for moving masses, tracking fleets across large sites, and optimizing haul routes — not managing submittals and change orders. That is exactly what Ditio was built for.
Purpose-built vs adapted
Procore’s platform was designed around the workflows of commercial building construction. While they have been expanding into infrastructure through acquisitions and partnerships, their core product still revolves around document management, project financials, and quality/safety workflows for vertical construction.
Ditio Core handles crew management, real-time workforce tracking, timekeeping, and HSEQ documentation specifically for heavy civil sites. Ditio Flow adds GPS-based mass haul optimization, route planning, load/dump documentation, and invoicing integration. These are not adaptations of a general-purpose tool — they are purpose-built for how earthwork and infrastructure contractors actually work.
Accessible for mid-size contractors
Procore’s pricing model is based on annual construction volume, which means mid-size and specialty contractors often face pricing that is disproportionate to their usage. The platform is designed for large GCs managing portfolios of projects.
Ditio offers straightforward per-user and per-vehicle pricing starting at EUR 17/month. A 20-truck earthwork operation can be up and running in days without an enterprise sales cycle or multi-year commitment. That accessibility does not come at the cost of capability — Norway’s largest contractors, including Skanska, Veidekke, and AF Group, rely on Ditio for their most complex projects.
Real-time logistics, not just documentation
Where Procore focuses on project documentation and financial tracking, Ditio provides real-time operational intelligence. Dispatchers see live fleet positions, optimize haul routes as conditions change, and generate verified load documentation automatically. This is not a nice-to-have feature bolted onto a document management system — it is the core of the platform.
