GateThree is the internal construction management platform used for every construction project at EllisDon. It is comprised of multiple modules and used by different departments throughout a construction project's lifecyle.
What is an RFI?
A RFI (Request for Information) is a critical component of any construction project. It is document and process used to clarify design details and resolve any issues between contractors, owners and/or consultants throughout a construction project's lifecycle.
A Living Document's Workflow
An RFI begins with someone on site asking a question related to the work they're doing on a project. The answer to that question can come from the general contractor or a consultant (architect, electrician, environmental governing body, etc). Any answers to this question need to be collected and distributed to all relevant parties so that the construction work can continue or adjust based on the question or answers. This process of asking, answering, clarifying amongst everyone involved means there is often a lot of back and forth, all of which must be tracked for insurance purposes.
