Track Your Construction Daily Reports With The New BIM 360 + NoteVault Integration

September 28, 2018 John Hall

Daily reports are an essential process during any construction project. Daily reporting provides important information to subcontractors and stakeholders, explaining the details of the job and the progress of the project. Quality construction daily reports tell the story of a project and ensure everyone involved in the project is transparent and on the same page.

They also provide important documentation in the case of a legal or contractual dispute, and can ensure that subcontractors are properly reimbursed. Having a record of performance can help explain delays and problems, and help stakeholders understand the project and plan better for the future.

Traditionally, daily reporting has often been a tedious and time-consuming process, with the project superintendent manually writing notes at the end of the day and trying to remember and capture the relevant information by hand. A new integration between NoteVault and BIM 360 changes that, allowing notes to be easily captured, shared, and synced among all stakeholders.
