NowBoard for construction firms
Sign-in at the start of the day, news at the break, safety all day and sign-out at the end. When you need it, switch the same TV to a Channel for an induction, a toolbox talk or a meeting.

What makes NowBoard different
Local businesses pay to advertise on your screens. You approve every advert and keep most of what they pay.
Site managers change their own Board in seconds from a phone, out on site.
Android TV, Raspberry Pi, or any Windows PC, Mac or Chromebook in a web browser.
Boards for site rules, notices, weather and countdowns. Change a rule or a delivery without a designer.
Describe a Board and AI designs it, or lay out your own. No graphic designer needed.
Ad Space share: you keep 70% on Free, 80% on Starter, 87% on Professional and 92% on Enterprise, before card fees. Prices exclude VAT.
Why NowBoard
A construction firm has three other ways to get information to site. Here’s how they compare.

What’s on the wall now
Site rules, inductions and today’s plan end up on laminated sheets and in emails nobody on site reads. Sound familiar?
It was right when it went up. Nobody is sure which version is on which site.
They don’t log in to the intranet. They do look at the cabin wall.
Deliveries, lifts and closures live on the site manager’s phone, not where the gangs can see.
An evacuation or a new hazard has to reach every cabin now, not at the next toolbox talk.
Your TVs, each with a job
Pick a Board, type in your details, and it’s on the TV. Every Board is ready to use, and you can change any of them.




Every screen shown is a ready-made Board. Type in your details and add your logo. The safety record is a number you type in.
A day on site
Give each part of the day its own Boards. At each time, the screen changes by itself, every day. Tap a time to see it.
Time-of-day screens come with Professional and Enterprise. Each site uses its own time zone.
A Channel for every job
The Site Channel follows the time of day. When you need the screen for something else, switch the TV to another Channel. Tap a Channel to see it.
Each Channel has its own playlist and its own time-of-day plan. Switch a TV to another Channel from your phone, and switch it back when you finish. Beam needs Professional and a Player Pro or the Windows player.
One screen, many jobs

Show your own induction slides. The new starter scans the QR code and moves the slides from a phone. No login.

Give the talk from your phone. The gang sees the same four points on the big screen.
Show drawings and programmes from a laptop on the site office screen. No cables, no app.
Dishes, prices and dietary marks. The breakfast menu changes to lunch at the time you set.

Short safety videos, BBC News and the weather at break times, so people look at the screen.

Progress on each block and the next milestone, so every trade sees the target.
Beam comes with Professional and Enterprise, on a NowBoard Player Pro or the Windows player. Sign-in QR codes open the sign-in form you use now.
More Boards for your sites








All examples use a sample firm. Your screens show your logo, colours and sites.
Update from anywhere
No laptop, no printer, no drive to site. The site manager changes their own Board from a phone. Head office sets the rules for every site. Try it: change the details and press Update the TVs.
Emergency alerts
One tap puts the same message on every TV on every site. One more tap puts everything back as it was.
Ready-made alerts for a fire, a fire drill, an urgent notice, building work and a missing person, plus your own messages. They come with Professional and Enterprise.

Keeps its own safety record
Getting it on the TV
Any TV with an HDMI socket will do. Each TV needs an internet connection, over Wi-Fi or a cable.
Runs on compatible Android TVs and TV sticks, a Windows PC, or in a web browser.
A small box that plugs into the TV’s HDMI socket, starts itself and just plays. Optional.
Our installer comes to your sites. UK only.
All prices exclude VAT. If we supply a TV, you pay what it costs us. Cabins need internet: a 4G router works.
Optional · Ad Space
Ad Space is off unless you turn it on. You choose which screens show adverts, and you approve every one.
Who might advertise? Businesses your workforce uses: tool and plant hire, PPE suppliers, training providers, local cafés, agencies hiring for the next job. You decide what fits your sites.
An example, not a promise of income: what you earn depends on what you sell. NowBoard takes a share of each advert (Starter 20%, Professional 13%, Enterprise 8%; 30% on Free). Card payment fees come off before you are paid. Prices exclude VAT.
Pricing
Pay monthly with no contract, or pay yearly and get 2 months free. Paid plans have as many Boards as you like and no NowBoard logo.
All prices exclude VAT. For example, 20 sites with 2 TVs each: the welfare cabin and the canteen. Pilot three sites first.
Next steps
We can set it up with you on a call, or come and fit it.
