Build the line —
Spanlines turns your construction plans into living worksites. Mark up the route, assign segments to crews, track real progress on the drawing, and bill by what's actually built — fiber, power, gas, water.
The plan is where the money leaks.
Your team has Bluebeam for markup. They have Excel for progress. They have another sheet for billing. Three places, three truths, endless reconciliation.
Disconnected redline
Markup lives in PDF files. No one knows which version is current. Field crews work from printouts. Rework happens.
Progress in spreadsheets
Footage is reported via text, photo, or memory. No one can see exactly where on the plan progress was logged.
Billing in a third place
Someone reconciles redlines vs. spreadsheet vs. invoice by hand. Disputes follow. Cash takes weeks longer than it should.
The result: disputes, rework, slow cash. Not because your crew is bad — because your tools don't talk.
Four steps. One source of truth.
Everything fiber & OSP construction needs around the plan.
Plan-anchored progress
Completed, Billed, Assigned, and Redlines — each as a separate layer on your actual drawing. One glance tells the whole story.
Segment-level crew assignment
Split any segment for in-house crews or subs. Full or partial. Each party gets their own portal with scoped data.
Progress billing by work code
FP45A, FP43F, FP58 — rates per crew, billing by what's logged and approved. No spreadsheet needed.
Contractor portal, field-ready
Subcontractors get their own login: see scope, start work, log progress, submit invoices with photo evidence.
Project & permit tracking
County, central office, City/County/HOA permits. Total footage vs. completed footage. All in one project record.
Honest comparison.

Projected from early pilot workflows.
“Before Spanlines, I had three spreadsheets and communication problems. Now I open the plan and I know exactly what's done, what's pending, and what I can invoice today.”
“My subs used to call me every week to ask about the scope. Now they log in to their portal from their phone.”
