As one of the oldest and most respected general contractors in America,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mccarthy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">McCarthy Building Companies</a>&nbsp;brings more than 160 years of building experience to every project — underpinned by a commitment to innovation, technology, and integrated delivery. The company’s self-perform model — which enables McCarthy to directly execute scopes including concrete, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, drywall and framing — is foundational to its approach. In recent years, McCarthy has publicly emphasized that prefabrication and offsite modular construction are not just supplemental tactics but central to the firm’s long-term strategy as labor shortages, supply-chain disruptions and cost inflation reshape the construction industry. For example, on the 40,500-square-foot outpatient clinic for CHI Health in Omaha,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mccarthy.com/insights/innovative-approach-to-prefabrication-yields-efficiencies-at-new-chi-health-clinic-in?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">McCarthy reported prefabricating over 75% of the exterior walls</a>&nbsp;and more than 60 % of the building enclosure, yielding schedule and cost advantages.&nbsp;



Recognizing that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mccarthy.com/our-approach/self-perform" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">self-perform</a>&nbsp;prefab offers a compelling path forward – combining operational control, quality assurance and delivery speed – McCarthy determined that implementing a robust manufacturing execution platform was essential to fully capturing the ROI of offsite construction. That’s where&nbsp;<a href="http://www.offsight.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Offsight</a>&nbsp;comes into play. Designed with Design for Manufacturing &amp; Assembly (DfMA) workflows in mind, Offsight offers a real-time, shop-floor-centric solution for project manufacturing rather than a retrofit of field construction software. McCarthy selected to partner with Offsight, to enable the firm to capture key production metrics, for example takt time, scrap rate and cycle time, that conventional field tools simply don’t support. By using Offsight as a single system of record for production, labor and materials workflows, McCarthy is positioning itself to deliver faster, more cost-efficient and higher-quality outcomes from its self-perform prefab business.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Driving ROI Through Shop-Floor Control of Production, Labor &amp; Materials</h2>







Through Offsight’s <a href="https://www.offsight.com/production" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Production &amp; Quality</a> feature set, McCarthy can actively manage its prefab production lines directly from the factory floor. They can track component cycle times, assembly times, quality defects per workstation and throughput across multiple workflows. With Offsight’s <a href="https://www.offsight.com/labor-tracking-timesheets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Labor-Tracking &amp; Timesheets</a> module, the firm gains visibility into who is working on what machine or task, enabling optimization of craft deployment, balancing staffing, and improving labor. Meanwhile, Offsight’s <a href="https://www.offsight.com/materials-inventory" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Materials &amp; Inventory</a> feature gives McCarthy a live view of material consumption, inventory status, and potential bottlenecks due to shortages or scrap waste.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="573" src="https://cms.offsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MC-3-1024x573.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2357" srcset="https://cms.offsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MC-3-1024x573.png 1024w, https://cms.offsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MC-3-300x168.png 300w, https://cms.offsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MC-3-768x430.png 768w, https://cms.offsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MC-3.png 1445w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



Because Offsight is built for DfMA and factory-style operations, McCarthy can confidently tailor workflows from project to project, reconfiguring production lines, adjusting station definitions, and recalibrating target times as needed. This flexibility is critical, typical field construction software is not designed to capture manufacturing-specific metrics and cannot easily adapt to the structured workflows of offsite prefabrication. With Offsight, McCarthy is able to prove to owners, stakeholders and internal leadership that its self-perform prefab business is delivering quantifiable benefits versus traditional stick-build construction.







<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
“Offsight is a gamechanger for our prefab operations. It gives us the transparency and control we’ve been looking for, from managing labor and materials in real time to tracking throughput and quality on the shop floor, it’s helping us deliver the cost, speed and quality advantages that justify our investment in self-perform prefab.”&nbsp;

Z Modular Adopts Offsight to Optimize Steel Fabrication and Assembly 

Traditional construction field apps weren’t designed for the precision and control prefab manufacturing demands. 







Managing offsite construction requires more than jobsite tracking — it needs prefab project management software that delivers manufacturing-grade visibility into workstations, material flow, quality checks, and productivity. 







As Travis Alders, Prefabrication Project Manager at PCI, explains, “Offsight is the most effective application for prefab. Traditional field apps fall short of our needs.” With Offsight, contractors can run their prefab operations like true factories, using digital tools for offsite construction that drive consistency, efficiency, and scalability across every project.

Build Offsight – October 2025

<a href="https://www.connest.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CONNEST</a>&nbsp;is redefining modular housing with its Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) approach, combining architectural freedom with the efficiencies of offsite construction. From concept to completion, CONNEST focuses on delivering exceptional, luxury custom-designed homes that set a new standard for prefab construction. Their mission is to harness DfMA to provide sustainable, efficient, and scalable housing solutions without sacrificing design flexibility.







This unique approach requires equally unique tools. Each project at CONNEST demands a custom Bill of Materials (BOM), tailored to the home’s design and manufacturing workflow. Offsight’s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.offsight.com/materials-inventory" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Materials &amp; Inventory feature set</a>, an Intelligent MRP built for DfMA, enables CONNEST to define these BOMs by design and apply them directly to specific prefab products. This completely streamlines material and inventory workflows, saving materials managers hours of manual effort while ensuring production efficiency and accuracy at scale.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">End-to-End Materials Management, Purpose-Built for Prefab</h2>







Offsight’s <a href="https://www.offsight.com/materials-inventory" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Materials &amp; Inventory suite</a> enables CONNEST to track inventory seamlessly from the warehouse to the shop floor. Materials can be scanned into the system in real time using Offsight’s mobile apps, while waste and quality issues are instantly recorded to prevent errors from cascading into production. CONNEST’s team can view real-time material quantities and set automatic triggers when stock levels fall below predefined thresholds. At that point, Offsight automatically generates purchase orders from its predefined supplier directory, ensuring materials are replenished without interrupting production.







<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
“With Offsight, we no longer worry about missed inventory or delays from stock-outs. The system does the heavy lifting for us, from tracking to generating POs, and it saves our team countless hours every week.”
</blockquote>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Forecasting Materials to Eliminate Bottlenecks</h2>







Beyond real-time inventory, CONNEST leverages <a href="https://www.offsight.com/ai-intelligence" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Offsight AI</a> to forecast material needs well in advance and generate alerts for low inventory. Offsight continuously monitors material consumption as products move through the factory floor via the Live Production Dashboard. As stock levels drop, the system automatically visualizes when specific materials will run out and alerts are created along with purchase orders that factor in supplier lead times and delivery schedules. Materials managers can review and execute these orders before shortages impact the line, eliminating costly downtime and keeping production on pace.







<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
“Offsight forecasting has transformed how we manage materials. Instead of reacting to shortages, we’re always ahead, with full visibility into what’s needed and when. It’s been a game changer for efficiency and cost control.”

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Materials Consumption &amp; Waste Analytics</h2>







As modules move through assembly stations, operators (or barcode/RFID scans where available) consume items from the picklist inside Offsight. Each consumed item is recorded against the specific module ID and work order so every bolt, board, or fixture is auditable to the module that used it. This allows CONNEST to perform per-module costing and to investigate material-related defects by tracing back to lot/PO.







Offsight compiles the consumption data into module-level reports that feed operations and finance dashboards. This can also be enhanced with Offsight’s real time API integrations to ERPs. CONNEST uses these reports for job costing by module type, variance analysis (planned vs actual consumption), identifying high-waste processes, and forecasting procurement needs for upcoming runs. For enterprise operations CONNEST can aggregate across projects and factories for executive insights.&nbsp;
