You're the one holding it together, across sites, subcontractors, and a hundred moving parts. GroundBrain puts the whole project in one place, so you can see what's coming, chase what's slipping, and prove what happened.
You get a weekly report, but not the one thing you need: what's about to go wrong next week. So the job becomes chasing people, re-reading threads, and proving what was agreed, instead of doing your job.
No look-ahead. The material shortfall, the no-show subcontractor, the task running behind.
"They say yes and do no." You wait weeks for the photos and updates you asked for.
Open items tracked in an Excel sheet, closed only by physically walking a 10-acre field to check each one. And you can't give this task to anyone else.
Three months into a build, the detail you settled with a subcontractor is buried in email.
To take on another project, you'd have to hire another you.
Surface next week's risks before they hit: a material shortfall, a shaky subcontractor confirmation, a task running below the rate it needs to hold the schedule.
Give each subcontractor role-based access to upload their scope's evidence: photos, sign-offs and updates. Proof lands in time, in one place, not in your inbox.
Weekly updates for HQ, investors and banks: state of construction, delivery issues, open items. Compiled from the project record, not rebuilt by hand.
Run more projects without hiring another you.
It's the layer between us and our subcontractors that was always missing.
Every contract, email, WhatsApp thread and journal in one place. Ask in plain words; get a straight answer, every figure cited, and the decision captured for next time.
A two-week slip past the Time for Completion costs you €259,000 in delay damages. That is 14 days × €18,500 per calendar day (Clause 14.3 6). Deductible from any sum otherwise due, or callable on the performance bond, without further notice (Clause 14.4 6).
But that headline only applies if the slip lands on M7. Where the two weeks lands changes the answer completely…
NorthArc must issue a Clause 21.2 delay notice to the Employer for the Westnetz substation back-energisation slip.
Pull a template, walk the site once, and attach the evidence each item needs. Photos, test records, certificates, a journal note.
Our best site manager is everywhere at once. The one thing he doesn't have is time, so I end up chasing him for information, every time.
We're refining the product with a small group of owners, EPCs and subcontractors. Bring a real project and a real deadline. We'll set it up with you in a workshop.
