CONSTRUCTION ERP
The problem
Building from a superseded drawing is one of the most expensive errors in construction, and it happens because the current revision lives in an email thread rather than a register.
An RFI that sits unanswered for three weeks becomes a delay event. Without dated records of issue and response, the delay cannot be attributed and the claim cannot be made.
