01Site information reaches the office through many channels
Forms, photos, reports and instructions arrive through messaging apps, email, shared folders and paper.
Operational impactProject records are updated late, staff duplicate data entry and urgent issues can be buried in routine submissions.
Automation opportunityCapture structured site submissions, classify attachments and route urgent or incomplete items to the correct project owner.
02Subcontractor compliance requires constant chasing
Insurance, worker, safety, training and company records have different validity periods and responsible parties.
Operational impactOnboarding and renewals slow down while project staff manually track missing or expiring evidence.
Automation opportunityCheck required documents, track expiry dates, send approved reminders and escalate gaps before access or work approval.
03RFIs and approvals wait without visible ownership
Clarifications, drawings, material submissions and change requests move between several parties.
Operational impactTeams cannot easily see the current version, pending owner, elapsed time or evidence required for the next decision.
Automation opportunityRegister each request, apply the approval route, remind the assigned owner and preserve the decision with the relevant documents.
04Progress claims and variations are evidence-heavy
Claims require quantities, approvals, photographs, delivery records and supporting documents to align.
Operational impactMissing evidence creates rework, delays commercial review and makes status difficult to explain across teams.
Automation opportunityCheck the submission pack against agreed requirements, identify gaps and prepare a controlled review bundle.
05Safety and inspection issues need fast escalation
Observations, defects and corrective actions must move from site capture to an accountable owner.
Operational impactManual follow-up makes it harder to prove acknowledgement, action, closure and the evidence behind each step.
Automation opportunityClassify the issue, assign severity-based routing, notify owners and track corrective action through authorised closure.
