FORGE · Field Operations, Reconstruction & General Execution

Thirty years of skill.
Zero years of paperwork protecting it.

The job site keeps two ledgers: money and safety.

Both leak the same way — nothing written down, nothing proven, nobody warned. These are the published numbers.

Falls remain the leading cause of construction deaths — the top of OSHA's "Fatal Four." Most are preventable with known protocols.
OSHA

The OSHA construction standard already documents how to prevent most of it. The knowledge exists — it just doesn't reach the field at the moment it's needed.

Work you performed with your hands, at your skill level — undocumented, so unpaid.
And the ledger money can't fix
Hazards flagged before the job — so you go home. Every night. In one piece.
FORGE walks the safety protocol for the scope before work starts: confined space, fall height, lead, asbestos, structural risk.
Your skill was never the problem.
The system around it was.

FORGE is ready for Founding Partners — built for tradespeople and contractors, tested by them. Founding Partners get first onboarding and a real voice in what gets built.

How this is calculated — formulas & sources

Formulas

Undocumented hours value = hours/week × weeks × hourly value

Unpapered change-order value = count × average value

All inputs are your own estimates — the calculator shows you your assumption, not an industry claim.
