30% of a site team's week is spent searching for documents. That's 12 hours. Every week. Per person 🕐 And the hours lost to searching aren't even the real cost — the real cost is building off an old drawing. Rework, delays, and disputes that show up on the final account 💸 Introducing Document Management System fixes both. A properly set up Common Data Environment (CDE) means the right version is always the only version anyone can act on. Transmittals create the paper trail that protects you when someone claims they never received it. The setup is simpler than most teams think🛠️ More in the article below ↓

Quick test — how many of these still happen on your projects? ☐ Budget lives in a spreadsheet someone emails around ☐ Supplier conversations happen in inboxes, not on record ☐ Nobody's quite sure which drawing is the latest ☐ Progress updates are chased manually every week ☐ Approvals happen over the phone or in a hallway ☐ The same information gets entered in more than one place If you scored 4 or more, you're not alone - most construction teams are 🦺👷♂️ The problem isn't the people. It's the lack of one connected place to manage it all. That's exactly what Archdesk is built for. Budgets, procurement, documents, approvals, progress — connected, visible, and always up to date. How did you score? 👇

Every serious AI strategy in construction is, underneath, a data strategy. Our founder and CEO Michal Mojzesz has written down the full argument, the one Archdesk was built on from the first line of code. The industry built brilliant point tools: scheduling, safety, accounting, documents, each excellent at its one job, none of them talking to each other. A pile of sharp tools and no model underneath. The question almost nobody stopped to ask: what is the shared data model every one of these tools should be speaking to? The piece covers what an ontology actually is, why construction’s software was built by builders (its genius and its blind spot), and why the model for this industry can be drawn in advance. There’s an interactive map in there too — click the BOQ Item and watch how much of the whole business runs through a single line of scope. https://lnkd.in/eTUUHv6x

Then vs. Now: Tender Analysis 📊 Then 📧 Offers in emails 📎 Revisions in attachments 💬 Questions in separate conversations Comparing submissions meant switching between inboxes, spreadsheets, and PDFs, while trying to make sure everyone was working from the latest information. Now 📊 Side-by-side offer comparison 📝 Participant comments visible instantly 🔄 Offer revisions tracked automatically In Archdesk, tender analysis goes beyond a simple comparison table. Review participant comments alongside their offers, track every revision submitted during the tender, communicate with participants via e-mail, and award items to the most suitable suppliers—all from one place. One view for offers, revisions, and award decisions. That's how tender analysis stays transparent, organised, and easy to follow.

Myth: We'll know if we're over budget at month-end 📊 By then, the damage is already done. Budget overruns rarely start in the finance system. They start with: - A subcontractor valuation submitted late — or disputed - Material prices that crept above what was quoted - Labour running longer than planned - A change approved verbally but never priced - Rework that nobody logged ❌ When these signals are scattered across emails, spreadsheets and site notebooks — no one sees the overrun coming. In Archdesk, budget control isn't a report. It's a connected process. ➡️ Costs tracked as timesheets, POs and subcontractor claims are submitted ➡️ Changes linked to budgets before they're approved ➡️ RFIs and variations visible against project financials ➡️ No waiting for month-end — cost risk is visible as it builds You don't find overruns. You prevent them.

Release 2026.6 is live — and it's one of our most workflow-focused updates yet. This release is all about keeping you in flow — less navigation, less manual effort, more control right where you need it. What's new: → Edit & add Purchase Order items inline with instant Product Catalogue search → Drag & resize tasks directly on the Gantt chart → Export multiple Form Submissions into one combined PDF → Archive legacy Forms to keep your workspace clean More speed, more clarity — built for the way your teams actually work 🚀

5–10% of total project cost 💸 That's how much construction companies lose to rework. Outdated drawings. Missed quality checks. Late change tracking. In an industry running on tight margins, it adds up fast 📉 Most of it is preventable - when everyone is working from the same information, in real time. Archdesk keeps your drawings current, changes tracked, and quality checks logged as work happens. Built-in approval workflows mean every document goes through the right hands before it moves forward - no ambiguity about what's been signed off and what hasn't ✅ The cheapest task is the one done correctly the first time. 👉 We've just published our 2026 breakdown of construction delays and cost overruns — the data behind why projects slip, and what high-performing teams do differently: https://lnkd.in/d8KnyjM4 #ConTech #Rework #Construction

Then vs. Now: Project Drawings 🗞️ Then: A set of drawings, a site office full of printed revisions, and a very real chance that the team on level 3 was working from a version the design team had already changed 📑 Now: BIM means every stakeholder can access a single, live model. Clashes are caught before groundbreak 🏠 But most teams stop there - and that's where projects still slip. In Archdesk, BIM isn't just a model you look at. It's connected to your costs, so you can see what the model is actually worth. It's linked to your programme, so deliveries are tracked and the right people stay updated. And if you're still working with 2D drawings? We support that too. One place for drawings, BIM, costs, and programme. That's the layer most teams are still missing. #BIM #Construction #ConTech #Archdesk
