Sectors / Construction contractors
Every job you have built left a paper trail
Bids, RFIs, submittals, change orders and daily logs show how a job actually progresses. That record is what labs want. Pricing, owner files and sensitive sites can be kept out.

Records that tend to be useful
You decide which of these are included. Leaving any of them out is always an option.
Change order records
What changed on a job, why it changed and how it got settled.
Bid and estimate files
How scope is priced, qualified and compared between subcontractors.
Site logs and punch lists
What happened on site each day and what was left to fix.
RFIs and submittals
How trades and designers answer the questions that come up on site.
What contractors ask about first: drawings and pricing
Contractors often build from drawings the owner owns, and their bid history reveals exactly how they price work. Each of these is a fair worry. Owner files can be checked job by job and left out, and estimating folders can be excluded before anything is prepared.
Some projects, for example government or critical sites, have restrictions of their own. Projects like these can be excluded altogether. If a contract leaves you in doubt, that question is for you and your counsel.
How your records are handled
Everything starts under an NDA. The de-identified copy swaps owners, subs, suppliers and staff for placeholders. Nothing goes out until you approve a sample, and your originals remain on your project platform and file servers.
Two short questions
Do we have to include models and drawings?
No. Email, RFIs, change orders and logs may be enough by themselves.
Does this interfere with active projects?
No. No one asks for logins, and your crews keep using the same tools.
