Approvals, notifications, and handoffs — on autopilot.
Jet.Build automates the repetitive process steps that slow projects down — so your team spends time on decisions, not on chasing signatures, forwarding documents, and updating status fields.

Your team isn't slow. Your process is.
Every construction project runs on a sequence of approvals, handoffs, and notifications. When those steps depend on someone remembering to send an email, forward a document, or update a spreadsheet — things slip. An RFI sits unanswered for two weeks because it landed in the wrong inbox. A change order misses a signature because nobody triggered the next step. A submittal review stalls because the reviewer didn't know it was their turn. These aren't people problems. They're process problems. And they're fixable.
Automate the steps that slow every project down.
Approvals that route themselves.
Define who needs to approve what — and in what order. When a submittal, change order, or invoice is ready for review, Jet.Build routes it to the right person automatically. No forwarding, no chasing, no bottlenecks.
Notifications that actually matter.
Your team gets notified when something requires their action — not when something happened three steps ago. Jet.Build sends context-rich alerts tied to specific tasks, deadlines, and approval chains, not generic system noise.
Handoffs that don't drop the ball.
When one step finishes, the next one starts — automatically. Task completion triggers the next assignment. Document approval triggers distribution. Budget line approval triggers commitment creation. No gaps, no manual bridges.
Build approval chains that match how your team actually works.
Every organization has its own review and approval process — Jet.Build lets you define it once and enforce it automatically. Set up multi-step approval chains for change orders, invoices, submittals, purchase orders, or any document type. Define who reviews, who approves, who gets notified, and what happens when someone is out of office. The system moves the item forward at each step — your PMs don't have to.
- Multi-step sequential and parallel approval workflows
- Configurable by document type, project, cost threshold, or trade
- Automatic escalation when an approval is overdue
- Delegation rules for out-of-office or role-based backup approvers

Cut the noise. Surface what needs attention.
Most platforms bury your team in notifications — every log entry, every comment, every system event. Jet.Build takes the opposite approach. Notifications are tied to action: an approval is waiting, a deadline is approaching, a task was reassigned, a ball-in-court item needs a response. Your team sees what requires their attention right now — not a feed of everything that happened yesterday.
- Action-triggered notifications: only fire when someone needs to do something
- Configurable by role, project, and urgency level
- Deadline-aware alerts: escalate automatically as due dates approach
- Digest mode available: daily summary instead of real-time pings (user preference)
When one step finishes, the next one starts — automatically.
The biggest source of project delay isn't the work itself — it's the gap between steps. A completed inspection should trigger a punch list. An approved submittal should trigger distribution to the trade. A signed change order should update the budget and notify the PM. Jet.Build connects these steps so work flows forward without someone manually bridging every transition.
- Task completion triggers the next assignment automatically
- Document approval triggers distribution, notification, and status update
- Budget-impacting approvals update financial records in real time
- Custom trigger rules: define your own if-this-then-that logic for any workflow
Standardize your best processes across every project.
Your best PM has a system that works. Workflow automation lets you capture that system and apply it to every project — so quality doesn't depend on who's running the job. Build reusable workflow templates for RFI routing, submittal review, change order approval, closeout checklists, and any other repeatable process. New projects start with your best practices baked in.
- Pre-built workflow templates for common construction processes
- Custom templates: build once, deploy across every project
- Consistent governance without micromanagement
- New team members follow established processes from day one
What changes when your workflows run themselves.
Without Automation
- PM manually forwards submittals for review via email
- Change orders sit unsigned for days — nobody triggered the next step
- RFIs get lost in inboxes; response times measured in weeks
- Daily logs completed but disconnected from schedule and budget
- New projects start from scratch — no process standardization
- Status updates require a phone call or a meeting
With Jet.Build
- Submittals auto-route to the correct reviewer in the defined sequence
- Change orders escalate automatically when approval is overdue
- RFIs trigger ball-in-court alerts with deadline countdown
- Daily log completion triggers schedule updates and cost logging
- Every project launches with your best workflow templates pre-loaded
- Status updates happen in real time — visible to everyone with access

reduction in approval cycle time
3x
faster RFI response turnaround
Zero
manual handoff steps between approval and execution
The approval automation alone saved our PMs hours every week. Change orders that used to sit for days now route, get signed, and update the budget without anyone having to remember the next step. It sounds small until you realize how much project time was being lost in those gaps.
