What is SUM-IT
SUM-IT is a cloud-based project management application to streamline and standardize the daily reporting, cost control and registration of progress on the construction site. It allows all organizations involved in the project to register and share the information on daily progress. Organizations can generate summary reports to better understand current state of the projects, costs of unplanned tasks and downtime, and can log all disputes daily.
SUM-IT is widely used in windfarm construction projects, but it is designed to be used on any type of construction projects.
Why we created SUM-IT
Over the years, organizations participating in construction of a wind farm were using Excel spreadsheets for registration of a daily progress. That turned out to be time consuming and error prone. At the end of the project, companies often had different interpretations and number of claims caused by downtime and additional work. SUM-IT eliminates the risk of errors caused by keeping multiple Excel sheets within the project and errors in calculation of the cost. At the end of the project, there is no room for different interpretations and disputes, as all its history is registered in SUM-IT.
Who can use SUM-IT?
SUM-IT is suitable for all stakeholders involved in construction projects, including OEMs, end clients, main contractors, and subcontractors. Our goal is to make SUM-IT your preferred project management tool.
How it works?
As a main contractor you configure the project and invite your subcontractors to create and submit online daily reports.
As a subcontractor you can join the project created by contractor and submit your daily reports to be reviewed and accepted.
Your contractor or subcontractors do not use SUM-IT? No problem, you can use SUM-IT stand-alone and send printed version of the daily reports to your client.
