Keep the entire site on the same page.
From ground crews and equipment operators to project managers, safety personnel and subcontractors, Westcan delivers communication systems that help construction teams coordinate work, respond quickly and maintain awareness across the jobsite.
Construction moves quickly. Your communication has to keep up.
Construction sites are constantly changing. Crews move between floors, equipment is repositioned, deliveries arrive and multiple trades work in the same environment. Two-way communication gives teams a direct way to coordinate work without relying on phone calls, weak cellular coverage or staff tracking one another down.
Immediate crew coordination
Reach individuals, workgroups or the entire site without stopping work to place a phone call.
Faster safety response
Report hazards, stop work, request assistance and share urgent information across the site immediately.
Coverage designed for the site
Extend communications across large projects, concrete structures, underground areas and temporary site facilities.
Keep teams connected across the jobsite
The right communication system helps everyone from site leadership to equipment operators share information quickly and work as one coordinated team.
Project Management
Keep superintendents, forepersons and project managers informed as schedules, site conditions and work priorities change.
Crane & Equipment Crews
Support clear communication between operators, riggers, spotters, ground personnel and supervisors during equipment movement.
Safety Personnel
Communicate hazards, coordinate inspections and respond quickly when employees or subcontractors require assistance.
Trades & Subcontractors
Create defined workgroups that allow individual trades to communicate without overwhelming the entire site with radio traffic.
Deliveries & Logistics
Coordinate gates, material deliveries, loading zones, traffic control and movement through busy construction areas.
Security & Site Access
Connect security, gate personnel and site management to support controlled access and after-hours monitoring.
Move information as quickly as the work
A direct communication path helps crews identify changing conditions, reach the right people and take action before minor issues become delays or safety concerns.
A change or issue is identified
A crew member reports a hazard, material issue, equipment need, schedule conflict or changing site condition.
The correct workgroup is reached
Site personnel contact the relevant supervisor, trade, operator, safety team or project manager.
Teams coordinate the response
Employees share updates, adjust assignments and coordinate the people or equipment required to address the issue.
Work continues with clarity
The team confirms the outcome and keeps the broader project moving without unnecessary communication delays.
The right radio for every role on site
Construction personnel work in very different conditions. Westcan can help match each user with a device suited to their environment, communication range, responsibilities and existing infrastructure.
Motorola MOTOTRBO R7
Advanced audio for loud and demanding work environments
The MOTOTRBO R7 is designed to help workers hear and be heard clearly around machinery, equipment and active construction operations. Its rugged construction and advanced audio make it a strong option for supervisors, equipment teams, safety personnel and critical site users.
Motorola MOTOTRBO R2
Straightforward communication for everyday site operations
The MOTOTRBO R2 provides reliable digital or analogue radio communication in a durable and familiar design. It is a practical option for general site personnel, trades, logistics teams and users who need clear voice communication without unnecessary complexity.
Motorola TLK Series
Push-to-talk communication over cellular and Wi-Fi
Motorola TLK devices provide familiar radio-style communication over broadband networks. They can connect teams working across large project areas, between separate jobsites or beyond the coverage of a traditional onsite radio system.
Tait TP3
Configurable portable communication for varied workgroups
The Tait TP3 is a compact DMR and analogue portable radio that can be configured for different teams and user requirements. Its customizable options make it useful for construction organizations that want to distinguish workgroups or provide different controls to different types of users.
Streamwide Team on Mission
Push-to-talk, messaging, location and operational tools
Team on Mission brings voice, video, messaging, alerts, geolocation and workflow capabilities into one secure communications environment. It can support construction organizations that need more than voice communication across dispersed or complex operations.
Match the communication system to the project
Site size, building materials, project duration and crew structure all affect the type of communication system that will work best.
Onsite Two-Way Radio
A practical option for crews working primarily within one defined construction site or project area.
Broadband Push-to-Talk
Connect employees working across large projects, separate locations, offices, vehicles and regional operations.
Hybrid Communications
Combine onsite radio, broadband communication and connected applications to support different users and working environments.
Communication throughout the project lifecycle
Westcan can support temporary jobsite communications during construction and permanent radio infrastructure for the completed property.
Jobsite Radio Coverage
Maintain communication as the site changes.
Building height, concrete, underground work and changing site conditions can affect radio coverage. Westcan can assess the project and design repeater, antenna or temporary infrastructure solutions that support communication throughout construction.
Vehicle & Equipment Communications
Connect mobile personnel without taking their attention off the job.
Mobile radios and installed communication equipment can support supervisors, service vehicles, traffic-control teams and equipment operators who need dependable access to site communications while remaining mobile.
Safety Communications
Give workers a reliable way to report and respond.
Communication systems can help teams report hazards, initiate site-wide alerts and coordinate the response to incidents. Depending on the platform, additional capabilities may include emergency buttons, location awareness, lone-worker monitoring and automated alerts.
In-Building Public Safety Coverage
Plan emergency responder coverage before construction is complete.
Large or complex developments may require an Emergency Responder Radio Communications System to provide reliable public-safety radio coverage inside the completed building. Westcan works with Comba public-safety BDA and DAS solutions to support planning, installation, testing and commissioning.
Built around the realities of your project
The best construction communication system depends on the site, building materials, workgroups, project timeline and equipment already in use. Westcan can support the project from initial assessment through installation, programming and ongoing service.
Keep every crew connected from the ground up.
