What BuildEase does today

Everything on this page is available now. It is listed by module, as it appears in a project. Planned capabilities are on the roadmap, marked coming soon.

Available now

Document control

Controlled documents and submittals with multi-party review.

  • Registers by document type

    Shop drawings, material and method submittals, inspection requests, RFIs and more, each with its own form and fields.

  • Project numbering

    References built from the project's convention, allocated on submission without gaps, never changed afterwards.

  • Multi-party review

    Receipt, routing to disciplines, lead reviewer, project manager approval and the code, with reassignment kept on the record.

  • Review periods by party

    Durations set per project and approved by a second person; the time each party held a document is measured on working calendars.

  • Document tracking line

    Who has it, since when, when it is due and whether it is late, the same in the register, the document and My tasks.

  • Workflow tracker

    Documents by stage across the project, with governed views from My work to Whole project; every count opens its list.

Drawing review

Review drawings inside the platform instead of by email.

  • PDF review in the browser

    Pages, thumbnails, zoom and pan on the submitted drawing, with every opening recorded.

  • Markup tools

    Text, callout, freehand, line, arrow, rectangle, ellipse, revision cloud and highlight, each saved as an unchangeable snapshot.

  • Released with the code

    Marks stay internal to the reviewing side until the code is issued, then reach the contractor with a legend per reviewer.

  • History by revision

    A resubmission opens clean; earlier revisions keep their marks and comments.

Quality and inspections

Inspections, materials and corrective records on the same engine.

  • Inspection and material requests

    Work and material inspection requests with their checks, reviewed and coded like any submittal.

  • NCRs, observations and site instructions

    Raised by the consultant, answered by the contractor with action taken and evidence, verified and closed or sent back.

  • Snagging and punch lists

    Snags by location, with photos, through to closure.

  • Form fidelity

    Each form's fields reconciled against the project's original paper forms, with structured entry instead of a scanned page.

Site and set-up

The project's start and its daily record.

  • Project set-up and mobilisation

    Organisations, people and roles, the breakdown into phases, packages and locations, and the mobilisation requirements.

    Daily reports prepared on site and approved.

  • Archive and handover

    A project archive and handover record at closeout.

Project controls

Plans, programme and procurement tied to the documents that evidence them.

  • Planned registers

    Engineering, procurement and ITP plans, with revisions governed so an item with history is never silently dropped.

  • Programme and baseline

    Plans and baselines with planned against actual by domain.

  • Procurement and long-lead items

    Procurement items and long-lead items with their vendors and purchase orders.

  • Risk register

    Risks, a heat map and early-warning signals.

Commercial

Contract facts and payment evidence from the record.

  • Contract facts

    Contract value, dates and terms recorded and verified by a second person.

  • Interim payment certificates

    Payment certificates through their review and approval chain, from measurement to payment.

  • Change and variation orders

    Changes recorded and decided through their own chain. Closing a site instruction is never the approval of a variation.

Administration

For company and project administrators.

  • Companies and people

    Company administrators, invitations, roles, suspension and removal, with an administration history.

  • Forms and workflows

    The project's forms and workflows loaded and changed through a draft and a second person's approval.

  • Activity history

    Who did what and when, readable only as widely as the record it is about.

  • Large files

    Large drawings and models uploaded straight to the project's storage, with resumable uploads.
