Key facts

Different buyers: GC vs shop.
Procore documents a project. Spectr executes a product.
Install photos in Procore without panel IDs do not reconcile a short shipment.
You can live in both without pretending they are the same tool.

How shops handle this

Assign ownership
GC communication vs shop truth.
Share status, not your entire inventory
A clean installed/shipped view is enough for most meetings.
Keep barcodes on your side
Your labels, your scans, your discrepancy log.
Do not wait for the GC to buy you software
Their stack will never optimize your brake.
