Construction Viz New Enterprise Submittal Form

Submittals are staples on every construction project as a standard communication tool between contractor and owner/CM/GC for contractual deliverables. The submittal process involves contractors completing a submittal form with the necessary submittal metadata like project name, package, etc., attaching the required documents, and sending to the owner/CM/GC for review and approval. It’s a pretty straightforward process, but larger organizations have more stringent submittal compliance, reporting, and scheduling requirements that involve adhering to a contractual submittal register.

We are excited to announce the new Submittal Enterprise Form, a new variant of our standard Submittal Form, to address this need.

So how is it different?

With the Submittal Enterprise form, we placed the submittal register at the center of the submittal process while making it even easier for a contractor to fill out. The new Submittal Enterprise form boasts the following enhancements:

New Submittal Register

• Robust, customizable register: Enter as many contractual submittal register items as needed into a configurable grid with all the metadata you need for each project.
• Permission controlled: The register can only be updated by users who have permission to do so. Also, contractors only have visibility and can only select the submittal register items from within a submittal form that they have been granted access.?
• Monitor due dates: Submittal due dates and re-occurring instances, such as monthly schedule submissions or weekly reports, can be tracked and monitored for compliance.
• Extensibility: Need a register to plan daily inspections or a custom specification tracker; the Submittal register component can be further customized to support other applications as needed.

Enhancements to Submittal Form:

• Easy creation: Contractors only need to select a few fields in a submittal to auto-populate the rest of the Submittal form from the register. This minimizes training, reduces data entry, and ensures data integrity throughout the submittal process.
• Helpful Tooltips: Tooltips are available to display only the submittal register packages that have been assigned to each contractor, further reducing errors when creating a submittal.

The Submittal Enterprise form is available as a single application or bundled in a suite of Microsoft 365 applications to fit your specific organization’s needs. While Construction Viz delivers out-of-the-box applications to get you started right away, all of our applications are designed to be further customized as needed by each client and by project.
