Revision Tracking
Record who made the change, the revision number, and the timestamp so project history remains clear and auditable across teams.
A formal revision record reduces disputes, speeds reviews, preserves approvals, and preserves a versioned audit trail. Accurate revisions protect contract obligations, change-order accounting, and permit compliance.
Multiple project stakeholders prepare or approve site revisions depending on the change type and contract terms.
Identifying the right preparer and signers up front prevents delays during review and permit processing.
| Field | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Approval Order | Sequential routing by role or email; escalate on delay. |
| Signer Authentication | Email link by default; use SMS or KBA for higher assurance. |
| Reminder Schedule | Automated reminders at 3 and 7 days after initial request. |
| Final Storage | Save signed version to a project folder and retain audit trail. |

Record who made the change, the revision number, and the timestamp so project history remains clear and auditable across teams.
Maintain prior versions and redlines so reviewers can compare changes and identify scope drift or unintended edits.
Define the order of approvals and required signers so changes do not proceed without necessary authorizations.
Show cost or schedule impact fields only when a change exceeds defined thresholds, reducing reviewer workload.
Capture timestamps, IP or device metadata, and signer attribution to support dispute resolution and compliance needs.
Use templates with required fields prebuilt to ensure consistency and speed for repeat revisions.
Allow 5–30 business days for municipal review depending on jurisdiction and complexity.
Plan 3–10 business days for multidisciplinary internal approvals before external submission.
Municipal response often ranges from 10–45 days; expedited reviews may cost extra.
The effective date is set when all required signers complete approvals and dates are captured.
Archive signed revision and notify stakeholders within 48 hours of approval.
Prepare the revision form and include all supporting documents and redline drawings.
Route to internal stakeholders for technical and budgetary sign-off.
Submit to owner or permitting authority and capture external signatures.
