The situation
What a building project asks of its records.
The pressures any G+5P+15 project puts on its information, and why these modules were activated.
Many parties, one building
A G+5P+15 building brings together the client, the consultant, the contractor, subcontractors, quantity surveyors and suppliers. Each one sends and needs requests, drawings, approvals and payment documents.
Approvals that must be traceable
Inspections, submittals, variations and payment certificates each depend on who asked, who approved and when. When these live in email and chat, the record is hard to rebuild later.
Money tied to quantities
Payment certificates are only as good as the quantities behind them. The bill of quantities, variations and payments need to refer to each other rather than live in separate spreadsheets.
Site and office working from different information
Site teams record what happens on site while the office manages contracts, finance and reporting. The project runs best when both work from the same records.
Modules in use
What is activated on the project.
The modules below are active on the project. Each description says what the module is built to do.
Inspections
Inspection requests move through approval, receive a serial number and produce a certificate, so each inspection has one record.
Submittals
Submittals are submitted, reviewed and approved in a workflow, so the status of each one is visible to everyone who needs it.
Drawings
Drawings are held in one place on web and mobile, so the site team works from the current sheet.
Finance: BOQ and breakdown
The bill of quantities is imported from Excel and validated, and a breakdown view shows how the contract value is split.
Finance: variations and payments
Variation orders are raised with a PDF output. Payment requests, advance payments and payment certificates show previous certified, net certified and VAT.
Contract management
Each contract records its value, retention percentage, VAT, advance and mark-up, with claims and change orders alongside it.
Daily reports
Site teams record daily logs, including toolbox talks and resource and safety information, from the web app or the mobile app.
File manager
Project files are uploaded, organised and shared in one place instead of across email and chat.
Analytics and reporting
Dashboards and reports summarise project progress from the same records the team works in.
How it works day to day
From a request to a certified payment.
The route a typical item follows through the platform.
A request is raised
An inspection, submittal, variation or payment request is created against the item it concerns, from the web app or the mobile app.
It reaches the right person
The workflow routes it to the reviewer, so nobody has to forward an email or chase a message.
A decision is recorded
Approval or rejection is recorded with who acted and when, and a certificate is generated where one applies.
Finance follows the record
Approved variations and certified quantities feed payment requests and certificates, linked to the bill of quantities.
Reports come from the same records
Daily reports, progress and analytics are drawn from what the team has already entered.
Result
What changed on the project.
What running these modules on one platform gives the project.
One project record
Inspections, submittals, drawings, finance, contracts, daily reports and files run in one system, so the project is not spread across email, chat and spreadsheets.
Approvals you can trace
Each inspection, submittal, variation and payment certificate has a record of what was requested, who acted and when.
Finance tied to the BOQ
Variations, breakdown and payments are linked to the bill of quantities, so payment certificates refer to the quantities behind them.
Site and office on the same data
Site teams use the mobile app and the office uses the web app, both on the same records.
Reporting from working records
Analytics and reports come from the records the team already works in, not from a separate rebuild.
Value added
Value for everyone on the project.
What the platform gives each party.
For the client
One record of the project in place of scattered files. Approvals can be traced to a person and a date. Payment certificates link to approved quantities and variations. Progress reports come from the working records, not from a separate rebuild. The client can see where the project stands without asking for a status update.
For the consultant
Inspection requests, submittals and drawings reach the supervision team in a defined workflow. Each decision is recorded against the item it concerns. Daily reports and files sit beside the approvals they relate to, so the supervision record is complete when it is needed.
For the contractor
Requests and submissions follow one route, so the contractor can see where each one stands. Variations and payment requests are raised in the same system as the BOQ they refer to, with the certificate trail kept alongside, so it is clear what was approved.
For other stakeholders
Quantity surveyors work from BOQ-linked quantities. Subcontractors and suppliers can follow requests that concern them. Authorities and auditors can be shown a complete record of what was requested, approved and certified.
Why this matters for similar companies
If you run or supervise building projects.
Consultancies supervising several parties
A workflow with a record at every step gives the supervision team control without chasing, and a clear answer when a decision is questioned later.
Developers and owners
Finance linked to the BOQ and approvals gives owners a view of progress and payments that comes from the working records.
Contractors
Requests, variations and payment requests in one system mean fewer misunderstandings about what was approved and certified.
Project teams working across site and office
A mobile app for site and a web app for the office, on the same data, keeps everyone on the same information.
