What Conqa does

CONQA is a New Zealand-based, privately held vertical SaaS company founded in 2015 that provides cloud-based construction quality assurance software to infrastructure contractors, civil engineers, precast concrete manufacturers, and commercial builders across New Zealand, Australia, the Americas, Asia, and the Middle East. The platform replaces paper-based QA processes with digital workflows centered on Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), site checklists, hold-point sign-offs, lot and element tracking, real-time defect and variation management, and automated QA reporting, supported by a mobile-first, offline-capable architecture that lets site teams capture evidence at the point of work.

The product is delivered through three interfaces — a web-based Console for project administration, a mobile App for on-site field capture, and a dedicated Review interface for external sign-off recipients — and is exposed via a public REST API with webhook support, enabling integrations with Power BI, Zapier, and Make. CONQA earns revenue entirely through monthly software subscriptions priced on the dollar volume of work managed rather than per user, with all plans including unlimited users and tiered pricing bands starting at $499/month. Distribution is primarily enterprise-direct with a 'Book a Demo' sales motion, supplemented by content marketing, webinars, and a newsletter; industry-body partnerships with QANZ, the Canadian Precast Concrete Institute, and Civil Contractors Federation Australia provide vertical credibility.

The company remains small (11–50 employees, Auckland headquarters) and has raised approximately $2.5M in disclosed equity funding from Punakaiki Fund and Icehouse Ventures across three rounds between 2017 and 2022. Its customer base includes tier-one contractors such as Fulton Hogan, Downer, and Lendlease alongside mid-market regional builders, and the product roadmap continues to evolve, with a major Console UI refresh shipped in March 2026.

Revenue model

1. Software Subscription: CONQA is priced based on the dollar volume of work managed through the platform rather than per user. All plans include unlimited users. Pricing is structured across volume bands (up to $5M, $5M-$10M, $10M-$20M, $20M-$40M, etc.) with a starting price of $499/month. The value proposition is that the benefit scales with the size and complexity of work being managed.

Core offering

Conqa builds construction quality assurance software that replaces paper-based Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), site checklists, hold point sign-offs, lot management, variations, and QA reporting with a digital mobile and web platform. It targets civil infrastructure, precast concrete, and commercial construction contractors that need to capture, sign off, and report on quality compliance in real time on site.

Product overview

CONQA is a unified, cloud-based construction quality management platform — not a modular SaaS with separately priced add-ons, but a single product with multiple integrated feature areas accessible across web (Console), mobile (App), and a dedicated reviewer interface. The platform is built around ITP and checklist management (Checklists, Sign-offs), real-time field evidence capture (Issues, Variations), progress tracking and reporting (Lot Management, QA Reports, Element Tracking), and external collaboration (CONQA Review). Industry-specific configurations are offered for Precast Concrete, Commercial Construction, and Civil & Infrastructure sectors. Pricing is volume-based (dollar value of work managed), not per-user, and starts from $499/month.

Direct peers

• Raken: Raken is a construction field management platform offering daily reporting, time tracking, photos, and checklists for site teams. It directly overlaps with CONQA's mobile-first site workflows and is sold to similar general and specialty contractor customers.
• Fieldwire: Fieldwire provides construction field management software for task management, inspections, and plan markup, including punch lists and inspections. It is a directly comparable field-execution platform competing for the same construction site-team buyer.
• SafetyCulture (iAuditor): SafetyCulture's iAuditor is a leading inspection and checklist platform widely used in construction and other field industries. It is comparable to CONQA's checklist, sign-off, and inspection workflows and has a broader cross-industry footprint.

Broad incumbents

• Procore: Procore is the dominant construction project management suite covering quality, safety, project execution, and financials. It includes QA/inspection functionality adjacent to CONQA's core and competes for the same enterprise construction buyer with a much broader portfolio.
• Autodesk Construction Cloud: Autodesk Construction Cloud (including Build and PlanGrid) provides construction project management, BIM collaboration, and field tools. It competes with CONQA on field execution, issue tracking, and QA-related workflows as part of a much larger AEC platform.
• Oracle Aconex: Oracle Aconex is a long-standing construction collaboration and document management platform used on large infrastructure and capital projects. It is comparable to CONQA on audit trail and compliance evidence, with a heavier enterprise and infrastructure footprint.
• Trimble e-Builder: Trimble e-Builder is a capital program and project management platform for owners and large infrastructure programs. It overlaps with CONQA on QA documentation, compliance evidence, and owner-facing reporting for civil and infrastructure projects.
• Bluebeam (Nemetschek): Bluebeam provides markup, collaboration, and document management tools widely used in construction, including QA and inspection-adjacent workflows. It is comparable to CONQA as a construction-specific digital workflow tool, though more focused on drawings and documents than field QA.

Regional players

• Buildertrend: Buildertrend is a construction project management platform primarily serving North American residential and light commercial builders. It is comparable as a vertical construction management SaaS but is weaker in the heavy civil and infrastructure segment where CONQA is strongest.

Emerging players

• Assignar: Assignar is a field operations platform for asset-heavy contractors covering scheduling, compliance, and field documentation. It overlaps with CONQA on field-side workflows and compliance capture but is focused more on workforce/asset management than QA.
