Every Bar, Every Drawing, Every Stage — Tracked.

Vendor Management connects customers, project managers, and designers on one workflow for rebar estimation, detailing, fabrication, formwork and shoring — so nothing moves without a record.

One Workspace, Three Vantage Points

Everyone Works From the Same Record

Each role gets a purpose-built view of the same underlying workflow — nothing is re-keyed between teams.

Customer

Submit requests, track stages, and request revisions.

Project Manager

Assign designers, monitor SLA performance, and review submissions.

Designer

Work a prioritized queue with time registration and peer-review routing.

Seven-Stage Pipeline

Every stage is timestamped, giving full traceability from first request to final delivery.

Five Modules

One Lifecycle, Five Stations

Purpose-built for structural steel work — each module maps onto a distinct stage of the civil detailing lifecycle.

MODULE 01

Rebar Estimation

Preliminary quantity take-off and tonnage estimation from customer-supplied drawings.

Inputs: Customer drawings, reference links, project scope, region and branch.

Outputs: Preliminary tonnage, estimation report, percentage-complete tracking.

Preliminary vs. revision trackingTonnage / branch reportingHours logged
MODULE 02

Rebar Detailing

Converts approved estimation — or direct customer input — into detailed shop drawings and bar bending schedules ready for fabrication.

Inputs: Approved estimation, customer/contractor specifications, required stock length.

Outputs: Detailed drawings, bar bending schedules, final tonnage and sheet counts.

MODULE 03

Rebar Fabrication

Extends approved detailing output into fabrication-ready instructions, closing the loop between design intent and shop-floor execution.

Inputs: Approved bar bending schedules and detailing drawings.

Outputs: Fabrication instructions and contractor-ready documentation.

MODULE 04

Formwork

Supports formwork planning and coordination in parallel with rebar workflows, so reinforcement and formwork designs stay aligned.

Inputs: Structural drawings and rebar schedule milestones.

Outputs: Formwork plans coordinated with the reinforcement timeline.

MODULE 05

Shoring

Supports temporary shoring design and removal sequencing, ensuring structural stability while permanent elements cure.

Inputs: Structural loading data and construction sequencing.

Outputs: Shoring design and a removal sequencing plan.

Why Teams Switch

Five Reasons Detailing Teams Move to Vendor Management

Transparency

Every stakeholder sees the same live status — no waiting on a status email.

Speed

Structured handoffs remove the back-and-forth that stalls detailing work.

Quality

The mandatory peer-review gate catches issues before they reach fabrication.

Accountability

Every action is timestamped and attributed.

Collaboration

Customers, PMs, and designers work from one shared record instead of side channels.

— FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Vendor Management integrate with our existing software?

Vendor Management is built to sit alongside your existing drawing and document tools, connecting the workflow and reporting layer without replacing your CAD or detailing software.

What happens if a customer needs a revision after delivery?

Revisions re-enter the pipeline at the appropriate stage and are tracked separately from the original submission, so revision rate stays visible in reporting.

How does the peer review step work?

Before a submission reaches PM review, it's routed to a peer designer for a structured quality check — only reviewed work can move forward.

Can Vendor Management support multiple branches or regions?

Yes. Branch and region analytics let you compare performance and workload across locations from one platform.

What does the designer experience look like?

Designers work from a prioritized queue with built-in time registration, so workload and turnaround are visible without manual timesheets.
