Dalux Field
Dalux Field is a cloud and mobile construction field platform that unifies quality inspections, health and safety observations, punch lists, checklists, and 360 site documentation so office and site teams report in one Dalux system with live progress visibility.
Dalux Field targets the gap between design information in the office and what happens on site by giving teams shared mobile and web tools for tasks, inspections, and observations. Dalux states it serves users in more than 147 countries and reports over 1.7 million users across its platform ecosystem, which sets context for how widely the underlying technology is deployed (Dalux, About page).
For quality and assurance work, Dalux describes creating, assigning, and tracking issues in one place, planning inspections, and using customizable checklists for permits, reports, and company templates. Drawings are positioned to update to field users when new versions are published, and workflows can steer who can view or close items.
Health and safety features include phone-based observation reporting for many participants, mobile safety inspection routines, and data views that support prevention planning across projects. Punch list workflows highlight fast issue creation with contextual data such as room and level, filtering by location or responsibility, and inviting subcontractors into the same interface.
Reality capture and progress features include rapid 360 site capture with a mobile workflow branded as SiteWalk, remote inspection views on photos with automatic location context, as-built style photo history, and BIM compare to relate site imagery to design models. Dalux also documents an augmented reality workflow in customer stories for locating issues early in the field.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Broad field scope in one vendor stack: quality, safety, punch lists, and capture without juggling many single-purpose apps.
- Strong story on fast adoption because workflows are built for phones first.
- Clear connection to Dalux Box for approved documents and models used on site.
- 360 and model comparison features support coordination between as-built conditions and design intent.
Cons
- Commercial pricing for Field tiers is not published on the main marketing pages; confirm packages such as Field Basic versus Field Standard or Pro with Dalux.
- Maximum value appears when the wider Dalux suite is in play, which affects procurement choices.
- Large contractors still need internal governance so checklists and workflows match local regulations and contract duties.

Frequently asked questions
What does Dalux Field do on site?
- Dalux Field is Dalux's on-site product for managing construction work through mobile and web access. It covers quality issues and inspections, health and safety observations, punch lists, and reality capture such as 360 documentation, with the goal that everyone reports through the same system.
Is Dalux Field free?
- Dalux markets Field Basic as a free punch list oriented app with BIM and drawing context, while broader Field capabilities are sold as commercial tiers such as Field Standard or Field Pro on the Field Basic pages. Always confirm current terms on Dalux pricing and product pages for your region.
How does Dalux Field relate to Dalux Box?
- Dalux documents integration so approved information from Dalux Box can surface in field workflows, helping site teams work from published drawings and models. The exact configuration depends on how your project sets up publishing and permissions.
Can Dalux Field capture 360 photos of the site?
- Yes. Dalux describes SiteWalk style capture to build a digital record of the site for coordination and progress, plus remote inspection views where stakeholders review imagery and raise issues on photos with location attached.
Does Dalux Field support BIM on mobile?
- Customer stories reference working with complex BIM in Dalux on site, and Field Basic pages highlight the Dalux viewer for models and drawings on devices. Device performance will still depend on model size, connectivity, and how models are prepared for field use.
Can subcontractors use Dalux Field without training?
- Dalux positions the interface as easy enough for many trades to respond to issues and tasks without long courses. Practical rollout still benefits from short standards on naming, responsibilities, and when to create an issue versus a comment.
How much does Dalux Field cost for a full project?
- Public product pages emphasize trials and sales contact rather than a universal per-user rate. Budgeting should start with a Dalux quote that matches your module mix, user count, and whether you stay on Field Basic or move to paid Field tiers.
