Industry

The programme, contract and cost report tell one story.

Commercial towers are won on programme and lost on variations. Tenancy dates leave no float, hundreds of site instructions each carry a notice clock, and facade, structure and services clash late, which is the most expensive kind of late. Hivenox Construction OS is designed so the programme, the contract and the cost report tell one story, and the number in the board pack is the number on site.

Workflows

Five workflows, one record

The work itself, named the way the people who run it name it.

Variations, site instruction to final account

Every site instruction recorded as a variation the day it is given, priced from the contract rates and tracked through approval to the final account, with unpriced and unapproved variations in plain view.

Notices and time-bars, clause by clause

Head contract and subcontract notices tracked against their time-bars on AS 4000, AS 2124 or FIDIC terms, each kept with its clause, the date served and the reply. EOT claims assembled with the delay evidence attached, before the window closes.

RFIs and the drawing register

RFIs with response clocks, and a drawing register with every revision and transmittal. Superseded drawings flagged before they reach site, and each RFI kept on the drawing it affects.

Design coordination before it is built

Facade, structure and services packages checked against the model, with clashes and design changes tied to the packages and dates they affect before they turn into site instructions. Late design packages set against the tenancy date they threaten.

Cost-to-complete the board can trust

Budgets, commitments, progress claims and payment schedules feeding one cost-to-complete, so the forecast moves with site instead of waiting for the month-end reconciliation. Margin fade shows by package while there is still time to recover it.

Records

The records it runs on

Quick answer

How do commercial builders keep RFIs and drawing revisions under control?

Keep one drawing register with every revision and transmittal, and log each RFI against the drawing it affects with a response date. Flag superseded drawings before they reach site and chase RFIs before they hold up the programme. Hivenox Construction OS is designed to keep RFIs, revisions and transmittals on the drawing they affect.
