Project Documents Collection

Stop Chasing Paperwork — Let Documents Collect Themselves

Missing permits, unsigned waivers, and outstanding insurance certificates can stall a project before it even starts. Our Project Documents Collection Automation requests, tracks, and organizes every required document automatically, so your team always has what it needs without a single follow-up call.

Stop delaying projects over missing paperwork — collect every document automatically

The Project Documents Collection Automation takes the chasing out of paperwork entirely. The moment a project is created, the system identifies exactly which documents are required — contracts, permits, insurance certificates, lien waivers, or homeowner authorizations — and automatically sends requests to the right person, whether that’s the customer, a subcontractor, or a vendor.

Why it matters: Missing paperwork is one of the most common causes of project delays

For general contractors, a project can be fully staffed and ready to go, yet still stall for days because a permit hasn’t been filed, an insurance certificate hasn’t been received, or a signed waiver is sitting in someone’s inbox. These delays are rarely about the work itself — they’re about paperwork that nobody had time to chase down.

Project Documents Collection Automation removes that bottleneck completely. Every document request goes out automatically, every submission is tracked, and every gap is flagged before it can hold up the schedule — keeping your projects moving on time, every time.

The Problem

A crew is ready to start on Monday, but the homeowner never returned the signed authorization form, and nobody on your team realized it was missing until the truck was already at the curb.

The Solution: Automatically request, track, and organize every document

Required document list is generated automatically based on project type and scope

Requests are sent automatically to customers, subcontractors, and vendors as needed

Submitted documents are organized into the correct project folder automatically

System tracks completion status and flags any outstanding or missing items

Automated reminders are sent before deadlines to prevent last-minute delays

One Trigger. Eight Intelligent Actions.

The moment a new project record is created, the system automatically identifies which documents are required and begins daily verification checks. It reviews submitted paperwork every day at your scheduled time, flags anything still missing, and sends reminder notifications to the customer until everything is in.
