    Your client hired you to protect their investment. Jet.Build makes sure you can.

    Jet.Build gives owner representatives and construction managers independent visibility into cost, schedule, and project performance — so you report with confidence, catch issues early, and keep every project accountable.

    The Role

    You're the owner's eyes and ears. Your platform should be, too.

    Owner representatives and construction managers carry a unique burden: you're accountable for the project's success, but you don't control the labor, the subs, or the daily execution. Your leverage comes from visibility — knowing what's happening across every trade, every cost code, and every milestone before problems compound. When you're relying on the GC's reports and your own spreadsheets, you're always a step behind. Jet.Build gives you an independent, real-time view of the entire project — so you see what the GC sees, catch what they miss, and report to your client with numbers you trust.

    The challenges every owner rep knows.

    You can't audit what you can't see.

    When the only view you have into project financials and schedule is the GC's monthly report, you're trusting their version of reality. By the time a problem surfaces in a pay application or a schedule update, the damage is already compounding. You need your own lens.

    Every client expects you to be on top of their project.

    You're not running one job — you're overseeing five, ten, or twenty projects across different clients, different GCs, and different stages. Each one expects you to know the status, flag the risks, and deliver clean reports. Without a unified system, you're rebuilding context every time you switch projects.

    If it's not documented, it didn't happen.

    Claims, disputes, and change order negotiations all come down to documentation. When your project records live in email threads, shared drives, and handwritten field notes, you can't produce the audit trail you need when it matters most.

    FINANCIAL OVERSIGHT

    See every dollar — not just the ones the GC reports.

    Jet.Build gives you real-time access to budgets, commitments, change orders, invoices, and cash flow projections — independent of the GC's system. Track cost-to-complete against your client's budget, flag exposure before it becomes a claim, and produce financial reports your client trusts because you built them from primary data.

    • Real-time budget tracking with committed, actual, and projected final cost
    • Change order log with full approval history and cost impact
    • Cash flow projections your client can take to their lender or board
    • Independent cost reporting that doesn't depend on the GC's data exports

    SCHEDULE OVERSIGHT

    Track the schedule your client is counting on.

    Your client doesn't just want to know the project is on schedule — they want to know which milestones are at risk and why. Jet.Build gives you a live view of the master schedule with critical path tracking, milestone status, and early warning flags when slippage starts building. Compare the GC's reported progress against actual task completion — so your schedule conversations are grounded in data, not optimism.

    • Master schedule view with critical path and dependency tracking
    • Milestone status dashboard: on track, at risk, or behind — at a glance
    • Schedule variance tracking: planned vs. actual progress by phase and trade
    • Early warning alerts when slippage trends emerge before they hit the critical path

    PORTFOLIO VIEW

    Manage every client's project from one dashboard.

    You shouldn't have to log into five different systems to check on five different projects. Jet.Build's portfolio view — the same environment behind our owner-side capital project management — gives you a single dashboard showing cost status, schedule health, open issues, and key milestones across every active engagement — regardless of the client, the GC, or the project type. Switch context in one click, not thirty minutes.

    • Portfolio dashboard: cost, schedule, and risk status across all active projects
    • Filter by client, project type, phase, or risk level
    • Client-specific reporting views: generate reports tailored to each owner's format
    • Role-based access: your team sees their projects, your clients see theirs

    DOCUMENTATION

    Build the record that protects your client — and your firm.

    Every RFI, submittal, change order, daily log, inspection report, and meeting note is stored in Jet.Build with full version history and access logging. When a dispute arises — and on complex projects, they will — you can produce a complete, time-stamped audit trail that shows exactly what was communicated, approved, and documented. No scrambling through email archives, no gaps in the record.

    • Full audit trail: every action logged with timestamp, user, and context
    • Document linking: files connected to the RFIs, change orders, and approvals they support
    • Unlimited storage with no archive caps
    • Export-ready: pull complete project documentation packages for claims, disputes, or closeout

    "
    We manage twelve active projects across four different clients. Before Jet.Build, I spent Monday mornings rebuilding project status from a dozen different sources. Now I open one dashboard and every project's cost, schedule, and open issues are current. My clients get better reports, and I get my mornings back.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Jet.Build gives your firm its own independent project environment — you're not logging into the GC's system and seeing their curated view. You maintain your own financial tracking, schedule monitoring, and documentation. If the GC is also on Jet.Build, data can be shared and synced. If they're on a different platform, you still have full independent visibility.

    Yes. Jet.Build's portfolio view lets you manage every active engagement from a single dashboard — filtered by client, project type, phase, or risk level. Each client's projects are permissioned separately, so your team sees everything and each client sees only theirs.

    Jet.Build generates client-ready reports — budget summaries, schedule status, change order logs, and risk assessments — from live project data. Reports are exportable to PDF and Excel, and can be customized to match each client's preferred format. No more rebuilding reports from scratch every month.

    Yes. Jet.Build is fully cloud-based with mobile-optimized access. Your field reps can log observations, capture photos, review drawings, and file inspection reports directly from a tablet or phone on the job site — with everything synced to the project record in real time.

    Jet.Build works independently of what the GC uses. You maintain your own project records, financial tracking, and documentation. If you need to import data from the GC — budgets, schedules, document packages — Jet.Build supports bulk import from Excel, PDF, and other common formats.

    Most CM firms are fully operational within 7–14 days. Our team handles workspace setup, project configuration, and hands-on training. If you're migrating from another system, we manage the data transfer as part of onboarding — so your active projects don't miss a beat.
