Vela Mobile™ iPad
Vela Mobile iPad enables construction team members to leverage the features of Vela Field Manager anywhere on the job site - with or without an Internet connection. Vela Systems has provided the construction industry’s first “all in one” iPad construction application, including a document library, checklists for QA/QC, Safety and Commissioning and issue creation/sign off for tracking any issues (including work-to-complete or punchlist issues) while walking in the field. The simple, paper-like iPad touch screens make it fast and easy to juggle with your other field tasks.
Whenever you connect to the Internet, upload your data to Vela Field Manager and immediately share it across your project, saving days of time. Vela Field Manager lets you track issues and questions until they are fixed or answered, email reports to update other team members (executives, owners, architects, etc.) and maintain a paper trail of what you’ve done.

This means that anyone with a Blackberry® or other email compatible device on the jobsite can take photos and send them into Vela to be managed. This powerful capability puts Vela into everyone’s hands on the jobsite and ensures that no issue gets “lost in the shuffle of paper” again.
Also, if you have an Internet-based smartphone (iPhone or Android-based device) and internet access you can also bring up Vela Field Manager in the field on your mobile device.
