What It Is

STOiQ is a cloud-based industrial project management platform provided by Stead Global, LLC. Positioned as a “project controls and workforce management platform,” it mainly serves industrial shutdown/turnaround work and capital projects. It is not a general-purpose task management tool; instead, it focuses on field project controls, workforce management, and industrial project execution data collection.

Core Features and Collaboration

The core modules explicitly listed include force reporting, digital progressing, safety observations, cost tracking, and scheduling integration, corresponding to labor/crew reporting, digital progress tracking, safety observations, cost tracking, and schedule integration. The product supports Web access and also offers mobile apps on Google Play and the App Store, making it suitable for field staff using phones or tablets.

In terms of collaboration permissions, the terms state that there is no per-user limit. Access is granted to individuals with active roles in deployed projects, and the service provider may periodically review and deactivate accounts that are no longer involved in current projects. This model is friendly to large field projects, but the public information does not further explain the granularity of role permissions, approval workflows, or audit logs.

Pricing and Services

STOiQ uses a monthly subscription model, priced by product tier and customer usage. Fees are charged automatically each month and include taxes. The provider may adjust pricing with at least 30 days’ advance notice, with changes taking effect in the next subscription period. Different products may have different pricing plans, but no specific prices are disclosed in the main text.

Professional services are quoted separately, including custom report development, custom data import configuration, and custom feature development. This makes it suitable for industrial customers that need project-level customization.

Pros and Cons

The advantages are its clear industry positioning and coverage of key areas in industrial project management, including labor, progress, safety, cost, and scheduling. The lack of per-user limits is beneficial for multi-role participation on project sites, and mobile support improves the convenience of field data collection.

The drawbacks are that publicly available information is limited. Key details such as a free plan, trial, security and compliance certifications, data backup, API availability, and specific third-party integrations are not found in the available materials, so buyers should confirm these points with the vendor before procurement.

Who It’s For and Access from China

STOiQ is better suited to industrial turnaround/shutdown teams, capital projects, project controls teams, construction site management, and safety observation teams. Access from China cannot be determined from the available information and is therefore classified as unknown. For payment, only automatic monthly billing is mentioned; supported card types or local payment methods are not specified.

If deploying it in China, teams should further evaluate network accessibility, mobile app download availability, applicable contract law, and local alternatives such as Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and domestic engineering project management software.
