Overview
On complex job sites, “location” should be the single source of truth. But Procore’s field teams didn’t trust it and adoption was under 7%. Teams duplicated tasks across locations and wasted time verifying they were in the right place.
What I changed
I redesigned the Locations Detail page around two issues: lack of spatial context and unclear ownership. The goal was to align the digital view with the physical job site so users can instantly understand:
Where they are (spatial context)
What’s happening there (activity and related work)
Who owns it (clear responsibility)

Key decisions
Add spatial context at the moment of tagging
Users needed to “feel” the job site in the product. We introduced live map context so location is more a place than a label.
Make navigation match the real site hierarchy
We added location breadcrumbs to reduce disorientation and help users confirm they’re working in the right location.
Make ownership obvious
We brought clear assignee visibility into the location experience so teams know who’s responsible. reducing back-and-forth and duplicate work.

Impact
After launch:
Teams tagged 2.5× more items with location data.
Duplicate entries dropped by 50%.
Field teams moved through documentation faster, with fewer mistakes and less back-and-forth.
Why that mattered
This wasn’t a cosmetic redesign, it aimed (and it delivered successfully) to improved clarity where it counts most: on job sites, in the field, with limited time.
