Smarter Solar Site Management: What’s New This April & May
17/06/2025
Over the past couple of months, we’ve been busy making Above’s platform faster, sharper and more intuitive, especially for users managing construction sites and complex task lists. From improved progress tracking to subtle UX wins, here’s what’s new:
Construction Progress Just Got Better
Monitoring site build progress is now more streamlined than ever. Our enhanced Construction dashboards bring greater clarity to what’s happening on site and what’s next:
Merged Progress View
The Progress Chart and Predicted Completion Table now sit side by side so you can easily compare actual vs expected timelines at a glance.Baseline Dates
You can now add baseline start and end dates for every on-site activity, making it easier to measure deviations and track delays.Expanded Coverage
Construction dashboards now include more system components like LV, MV and HV cabling, CCTV, Weather Stations and SCADA, helping you track more of your site in one place.
Task Management Now Faster, Sharper and More Mobile
Whether you’re in the office or on site, managing tasks has never been easier.
