Every document filed against the job it belongs to
Contracts, permits, insurance certificates, WCB records, drawings, floor plans, material lists, inspections and warranties — typed, attached to the project, and visible to exactly the people who should see them.
The problem
Construction paperwork ends up in three places at once: an email thread, a phone's camera roll and a folder on one laptop. The version that matters is whichever one the person answering the question happens to open, and nobody finds out they were looking at the wrong one until it costs something.
How BuildersBridge solves it
Typed, not just uploaded
Thirteen document types including contract, permit, insurance, WCB, change order, drawing, floor plan, inspection and warranty — so a file is findable by what it is, not only by what somebody named it.
Four levels of visibility
Internal, project team, client-visible and subcontractor-visible. The homeowner sees what you chose to share; the sub sees their scope; the rest stays yours.
Attached to the project
Documents belong to a job rather than to a shared drive, so the paperwork is where the person working on that job is already looking.
Canadian compliance categories
WCB and insurance are document types in their own right, because on a Canadian site those are the two that get asked for and the two that expire.
Frequently asked questions
- What is construction document management software?
- A place to keep project paperwork filed against the job, typed by what it is, with control over who can see each file — as opposed to a general file store where everything is equally visible and equally hard to find.
- Can clients and subcontractors see documents?
- Only what you mark for them. Every document has a visibility setting — internal, project team, client-visible or subcontractor-visible — and the default is your team, not the client.
- Does it do drawing markup or version control?
- No. Drawings can be stored and typed as drawings, but there is no markup layer and no formal revision control. If your work depends on redlining drawings, use a tool built for it and keep the record here.
- Can I get my documents out?
- Yes. Data export is available and your files are yours; there is no lock-in on the record of your own jobs.
