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.
Keep reviews moving, even when responsibilities change
Add specialist reviewers, reassign a review or let the lead reviewer take one over, without restarting its review period. Every change of hands stays on the record.
Everyone knows what needs their attention
Engineers, document controllers and project managers each see what is waiting for them, grouped by when it is due, and the workflow tracker shows their discipline's and organisation's work.
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.
Every revision tells a story
Each revision keeps its markups, comments and code, so repeated returns on a drawing or a package are plain to see and your team can trace recurring design or coordination issues to their source.
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.
Quality is verified, not assumed
Inspections, NCRs and corrective actions carry their evidence and their verification, and an accepted inspection can stand behind a quantity measured for payment.
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.
- Action required
- In progress
- Awaiting verification
- Closed
Further action required
Site and Set-Up
The project's start and its daily record.
Keep the project record connected through handover
Closeout checks that the as-built drawings, commissioning records and open snags are settled before handover, and the archive keeps every approved document with its history.
Project Set-Up and Mobilisation
Organisations, people and roles, the breakdown into phases, packages and locations, and the mobilisation requirements.
Daily Site Reports
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.
See emerging risks while there is still time to act
Risks are assessed on a heat map with their mitigation actions and early-warning signals, and open risks appear in the portfolio view.
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.
Track every certificate from submission to payment
Each certificate moves from the contractor's claim through PMC assessment and approval, the client's approval and finance to recorded payment, with its payment evidence.
Know what has been assessed, certified and paid
Contract value, variations, earned, claimed, certified and paid amounts, and what is certified but not yet paid, all 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.
- Contract value
- Certified
- Paid
- Certified, not yet paid
Reporting and Intelligence
Dashboards and reports drawn from the governed record.
One dashboard. Multiple projects. Clearer decisions.
The portfolio view puts every project of the company side by side, with the items needing attention and planned against actual, for people with portfolio authority.
Less time compiling reports, more time managing projects
PMC progress reports and the executive summary are prepared from the project's own data instead of being assembled by hand.
Project Dashboard
Project pulse, items requiring attention, and performance by domain.
Portfolio View
Every project of the company side by side, for those with portfolio authority.

Administration
For company and project administrators.
Create, review, approve and track in one system
RFIs, submittals, inspections and quality records are structured forms with their own fields and workflows, loaded and changed with a second person's approval.
Every decision has a record
Who submitted, reviewed, reassigned, approved or refused, and when, is recorded append-only, refused attempts included.
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.
- Company workspace
- Project
- Organisation in its capacity
- Role, discipline and stage
Coming soon
Planned Next
CRM, Construction Management Intelligence Platform, resource planning, contract management and the BuildEase AI Copilot are planned modules of the wider suite and are not available today. The roadmap shows what is coming and what the platform already does without them.
