What you can do
- Field Data Management — List construction jobs and retrieve timecard data from HeavyJob to monitor site progress.
- Estimating Insights — Access bidding estimates and bid items from HeavyBid to stay aligned with project budgets.
- Equipment Telematics — Monitor your fleet with real-time GPS locations and latest meter readings (odometer/hours).
- Resource Coordination — List employees and business units defined across the HCSS ecosystem.
- Pre-Construction Tracking — Browse active pre-con projects and project lifecycles.
- Operational Efficiency — Use AI to identify equipment utilization trends or job cost variances in seconds.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
How do I obtain my HCSS API credentials?
You must request API access through the HCSS Developer Portal (developer.hcssapps.com). Once approved, you will receive your Client ID, Client Secret, and Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key.
Can I see the real-time location of my equipment?
Yes! Use the get_equipment_location tool with the unique equipment ID. It will return the latest GPS coordinates recorded by the Telematics system.
Does this integration cover both HeavyJob and HeavyBid?
Yes, this MCP server includes tools for both modules, allowing you to access timecard data from HeavyJob and estimate/bid data from HeavyBid in a single interface.
Is the integration secure for construction data?
Absolutely. The integration uses industry-standard OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials flow and HTTPS. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
