How Architects use it

1

When the preliminary design is approved

The professional services contract and fee estimate get signed before final drawings begin.

2

During construction

Scope changes, extras and progress records get signed in minutes with the client or contractor, without stopping the site for paperwork.

3

When you hand over the project

The final handover record gets signed and filed alongside the rest of the project's documentation.
