RFI Management for Construction Projects

Request for Information : Construction Projects

Construction Business with Request for Information (RFI) Management

Request for Information Management for Job Contracting and Construction Projects

This app allows you to manage "Requests for Information" for Construction and Contracting Projects.

Your customers and suppliers can submit requests online through your website, and your team can respond with answers. The project manager and project team can also manually create requests for information from the backend if they need to ask questions to the supplier or customer. This way, your construction and contracting projects can ensure that information is stored securely in the database.

Key Note:

Your Customers and Suppliers can easily submit requests through your website, attaching multiple documents as needed. Upon submission, a unique Request record is generated and stored as a Request for Information (RFI) in the backend. Customers and Suppliers can track the status of all their RFIs via the "My Account" section on your website. Backend users can print a PDF of the RFI, and the Project Team or RFI Team can communicate with the Customer or Supplier using Open Chatter while also filling out Timesheets directly within the RFI form. Once all necessary actions are completed, the RFI Team or Project Manager can close the request. After closing, Customers and Suppliers can provide feedback and a rating for the RFI. The system is integrated with the Odoo Survey module, allowing your team to create surveys related to specific RFIs. Additionally, configurations are available for RFI Types, Subjects, Teams, and Stages to tailor the process to your business needs.

Importants:

In construction, RFI stands for Request for Information. It is a formal process used by contractors, subcontractors, or vendors to seek clarification or additional information regarding construction documents, such as plans, specifications, or contracts. When a team encounters issues, ambiguities, or gaps in the provided documentation that could affect the project’s scope, timeline, or budget, they submit an RFI to the project team (such as architects, engineers, or project managers) to resolve these uncertainties. RFIs help ensure that all parties have a clear understanding of the project requirements and avoid mistakes that could lead to delays or cost overruns. The process typically includes:

  • Submission: The contractor or team member submits the RFI detailing the question or issue.
  • Review: The project manager or relevant authority reviews the RFI and provides a response.
  • Resolution: The response is integrated into the project documentation, and any necessary changes or clarifications are made.

RFIs are crucial for maintaining effective communication between all parties involved in a construction project.
