BuildManage is AI-powered construction project management software for the site and the office.
BuildManage records construction quality inspections, KY risk assessments and 3S safety patrols, and gives every organisation and project role-based access to its own data.
BuildManage covers the construction workflow end to end: WBS and Gantt scheduling, Leanboard weekly planning, tasks and issues, drawings, IFC BIM, site photos, quality inspection, safety, risk, documents, contracts and equipment logging. In BuildManage a drawing revision, an inspection record and a daily report all belong to the same construction project.
The Build AI suite ships five conversational AI agents, four of which work inside BuildManage, and BuildManage adds nine automatic AI features. Every BuildManage AI answer cites the specific project record it came from, and BuildManage declines to answer when the evidence is thin. BuildManage never saves an AI result without a person approving it, and the BuildManage agent can write into only four record types: issues, tasks, schedule and project notes.
Site engineers record photos, checklists, safety patrols and daily quantities into BuildManage from a phone or tablet, and the office reads the same records in the same project. When a daily report is approved, BuildManage writes its actual quantities back into the schedule and the Leanboard, so nobody retypes progress. BuildChat — team chat with Assigned, Tasks, ToDo, Agenda, Inbox and Replies boards plus each person’s own file storage — is part of BuildManage.
BuildManage produces formatted daily, weekly and monthly construction reports, plus EVM, S-curve and CPI/SPI analytics, all from the same project data. Where an organisation enables electronic signing, BuildManage signs approved documents with QR-verifiable digital signatures, so a printed report can be checked back against the record it came from.
BuildManage plans construction work as a WBS and a Gantt chart, and imports existing schedules from Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project. BuildManage measures schedule and cost performance with EVM, S-curve and CPI/SPI analytics. BuildManage reads both the XER and XML formats Primavera P6 exports, as well as Microsoft Project’s XML export, and keeps multiple baselines so a plan can be compared against up to four of them at once. The BuildManage planning agent works that schedule on the critical path: asked to recover a slipped date, it proposes a concrete bundle of edits together with the finish date it calculates from them.
Leanboard is the weekly last-planner board inside BuildManage, where site teams commit to the week's work and record planned-versus-actual daily quantities. An approved BuildManage daily report writes its actual quantities back into both the schedule and the Leanboard.
BuildManage tracks construction tasks and site issues, each with an owner, a due date and a status that the whole project team can see.
BuildManage manages construction drawings with version control, visual comparison between two revisions, and revision-impact alerts that flag which records a new revision affects. The BuildManage drawing AI reads the title block, lifting the drawing number, revision, scale, floor, discipline and date from the sheet itself.
BuildManage includes an IFC BIM viewer that opens building information models in a web browser, with no desktop BIM software to install.
BuildManage stores construction photos with GPS tagging and a Japanese-style electronic blackboard, so every site photo carries where it was taken and what it records.
BuildManage runs construction quality inspection with checklists, non-conformance reports (NCRs) and ITP hold and witness points. The named inspector, contractor and supervisor each sign their own slot on the inspection.
BuildManage covers site safety management with safety patrol and 3S records, KY risk assessment and plant pre-start checks, alongside a risk register with a probability-by-impact heatmap.
BuildManage keeps project documents in an in-app viewer with annotation, and runs formal project communication: RFIs, technical queries, submittals, transmittals, material orders and meetings. BuildManage also holds contracts and equipment logs. An approved material order is delivered to BuildCost as a draft purchase order, so the same request is never retyped into the cost system.
BuildManage issues formatted daily, weekly and monthly reports from the same project data, and writes the approved report’s actual quantities back into the schedule. BuildManage carries EVM, S-curve and CPI/SPI analytics and nine automatic AI features. Where an organisation enables electronic signing, an approved report carries a QR-verifiable digital signature.
Not a generic chatbot — an agentic system grounded in project data, building standards, drawings, and inspection records.
BuildManager AI — a manager copilot focused on schedule, cost, and risk. BuildEngineer AI — an engineering advisor versed in construction norms, standards, and building law.
Run AI analysis on selected photos to receive defect, severity, category, and confidence suggestions for user review.
Run title-block extraction on demand, confirm the metadata, and compare PDF revisions visually with slider or overlay tools.
Analyzes schedule health (on-track / at-risk / delayed), drafts WBS and Gantt from plain text, and suggests critical-path actions.
Drafts daily and monthly reports from project data for user review and approval, with PDF or Excel export.
Creates tasks, logs defects, and generates reports from chat — with your confirmation. Conversation history is saved.
Set up: create the construction project in BuildManage, invite the team and set each member's role.
Plan: build the WBS and Gantt schedule in BuildManage, or import an existing Primavera P6 schedule (XER or XML) or a Microsoft Project schedule exported as XML, then commit the week's work on the Leanboard.
Record on site: site teams log photos, quality inspections, safety patrols, issues and daily quantities into BuildManage from a phone or tablet.
Verify and approve: an authorised person reviews progress, non-conformances, documents and reports in BuildManage, and on approval the actual quantities are written back into the schedule and the Leanboard.
Review and decide: BuildManage issues daily, weekly and monthly reports and tracks EVM, S-curve and CPI/SPI, so the next move is planned on figures the agents can trace back to a record.

A.Yes. BuildManage is web-based construction project management software with nothing to install, and it runs on a phone, a tablet or a computer. The BuildManage interface is tuned for the tablets site teams use to record photos, checklists and daily quantities.
A.Yes. BuildManage imports Primavera P6 schedules in both the XER and XML formats, and Microsoft Project schedules exported as XML, and continues them as a WBS and Gantt schedule with EVM, S-curve and CPI/SPI analytics on top. A .mpp file is exported to XML from Microsoft Project first.
A.BuildManage offers English, Japanese and Mongolian interface options. Translation coverage varies by BuildManage module and continues to expand.
A.Yes. Build AI provides BuildManage documentation and tutorials, plus training agreed with the organisation when BuildManage is rolled out to its construction teams.
