Every stage, every condition, every sign-off in one place. You always know what's outstanding and whose court it is in.




















Project managers, builders, developers and certifying authorities run their approvals and handover on DocuBuild.
The consent it came from, the checklist to be built, a matrix of conditions, people's heads. No source of truth, and no way to see where the job is up to. That's where the weeks get lost.

The consent61 pages of conditions that someone still has to turn into tasks with a name and a date on them.

The checklistManual hours holding it all together, responsibility and dates missing

The matrix87 items outstanding. Manually updated. Nobody has a clear picture of where it's all up to.
One live record between your consultants, the PM, and your certifier. Every condition carries its owner, its date and its evidence - so the status of the job is immediate, not something someone compiles.
Consultants and trades upload documents through a link, and it lands exactly on the right condition.
Reminders go out against the item and escalate as the date closes in.
Release when it's ready. They review and comment and update versions in the same record.
The same picture for the builder, the consultants and the certifier.
DocuBuild covers the whole approval and handover. Set up the conditions, chase the evidence, get it certified, and hand it over.
Upload your consent, your templates or your existing checklists and we turn them into a live register, with every condition assigned and dated from the day it lands.
Consultants and trades upload through their own portal, straight against the item. You see who owes what, what's overdue and where the gaps are, without asking anyone.
Your certifier reviews evidence in their own workspace and comments on the item, released in batches when you're ready.
The same record becomes the handover package. Indexed and searchable, not a folder of PDFs assembled at the end.
DocuBuild does the asking. Every request, every comment and every response sits on the item it belongs to, so the whole conversation is in one place and everyone can see who is holding what.
The specific document, the condition it belongs to, and the date it's needed by. Escalating on their own as the date approaches.
Consultant, project manager and certifier all comment on the same item. No forwarding, no cc lists, and no wondering which version of the answer is current.
Every item shows who owns it and where it's up to. Consultants and trades upload through a link, with nothing to install and nothing to learn.
Having everything tracked in one place, from condition compliance through to O&M submissions, reduced the back and forth significantly and gave us confidence going into handover.
Everything is in one place and my certifier saw it directly. We knocked six weeks off our closeout.
We were managing it across too many places. DocuBuild pulled it into one system and made the whole process a lot less stressful.
A great tool for taking multiple emails and correspondence out of the equation.
This is a game changer. I'll be passing your details on to the other builders.
A modern and intuitive platform that simplifies how handover documentation is managed.
Builders report closing out around six weeks faster, and not having to hold the whole thing in your head to get there.
You stop chasing. Reminders go out on their own, consultants and trades upload against the item rather than into an inbox, gaps surface while they are still fixable, and your certifier reviews in the same record instead of sending emails back and forth. One place, everyone in it, removing the traditional back and forth that slows projects down.
Because SharePoint is storage, not a process. Someone still has to collect the documents, rename them, file them, update the register, work out what is missing and chase the consultants. That someone is usually your contract administrator, and whatever they don't get to this week doesn't arrive.
It also means things fall through the gaps quietly. A superseded revision, a missed sign off, a certificate filled out incorrectly. You find those when the certifier opens the file, and then the back and forth begins.
DocuBuild puts your consultants, your trades and your certifier into the same review process, so the gaps surface while there is still time to do something about them.
Minutes, not weeks. Send us your live checklist and we will have it set up while we are on the call with you. Every item loaded and tagged by trade and discipline, with nothing summarised or dropped. Your team is invited straight away, and your consultants, trades and certifier need no logins, just a link. If you have already finished stages, send us those too and we will load them retrospectively so DocuBuild holds the whole project rather than starting from wherever you happen to join.
Keep using it. Procore runs the build. RFIs, drawings, defects, site records, cost. It is your system and we are not trying to replace it.
The issue is that your certifier doesn't have a Procore login, and neither do most of your consultants. So everything from construction certificate through to occupation certificate still runs on email and a spreadsheet, and that is where the weeks go. That is the part we fix.
We work directly with certifiers, so the whole chain sits in one place. A Procore document sync exists if you want it, but most teams find the checklist was never in Procore to begin with.
They don't have to. They get a read only link with your checklist in their own format, and they can download the lot and review offline exactly as they do now.
Most stay in the platform once they see it, because documents arrive already renamed and filed against the right item, and they can see just what has changed since their last review rather than re downloading a whole submission. That is the part certifiers tell us saves them the most time. If yours reviews offline, statuses get updated the way you do now, but the management, the chasing, the versions and the audit trail all still work for you.
That is usually the case, and DocuBuild is built first for whoever is actually running the process.
It still earns its place on your side. You get visibility across every project without asking for an update, and you see blockers while they are still blockers rather than after they have become holding costs. You are in the same record as the certifier and the trades, so when your builder says the occupation certificate is on track, you can see whether it is.
Yes. DocuBuild is configured for NSW, Victorian and Queensland requirements. Every one runs the same job: an approval with conditions, evidence against each one, and an authority who signs it off. What changes is the vocabulary. Construction and occupation certificates in New South Wales, building and occupancy permits in Victoria, building approvals in Queensland. Registered certifier, building surveyor, private certifier. All of it is configuration on the checklist item, not a different product. The NSW Planning Portal integration is our main integration focus and actively in build, with the goal of lodging straight from DocuBuild rather than manually splitting zip folders and mapping your certifier's checklist categories onto the Portal's document types. Ask us where it is up to and we will give you a current answer.
$5,000 per project, for contract sums up to $40m. One fee, from the day the project starts through to occupation and handover. Every stage is covered, with unlimited users and your certifier, consultants and subcontractors all included. No per-user fees, no per-condition fees.
Amazon Web Services in the Sydney region. All client data, documents and backups are stored in Australia, encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher. Backups run hourly incremental and daily full, geo redundant within Australia, retained for 35 days with monthly archival held for twelve months. Restores are tested quarterly.
AI is used in one place only. It reads the consent documentation and proposes checklist items from its conditions. Nothing else touches a model, so search, evidence handling, review and decisions are conventional software. Every proposed item is reviewed, edited, merged or rejected by a person before the checklist is issued, and no status or decision is ever set by a model. Consent document text is the one thing that leaves Australia, processed under terms that prohibit training on client data and held only for a short abuse monitoring window. Extraction can be turned off entirely.
We operate to controls aligned with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II. A full security and data overview is available on request.
Thirty minutes, nothing to prepare. Bring a live job and we will walk it through with you.

Value from your first project
We'll have it live and show you the client view on the same call. No commitment.
Five jobs eat a certifier's week, and none of them need your qualification. Here is what each one costs you today, and what happens to it in DocuBuild.
Reading the consent, extracting every condition, typing them into a checklist and tagging them by stage and discipline. Every project, from scratch.
Drop in the consent or your existing template. Every condition comes out coded, tagged by trade and discipline, nothing summarised or dropped. Minutes, not an afternoon.
Twenty-forty minutes a stage deleting irrelevant lines, because the master template covers every building type and this one is Class 2, BAL-LOW, three storeys.
Items carry conditions for classification, construction type, storeys, climate zone, BAL and staging. The right checklist generates for the project in front of you.
links and zip files flying around, named inconsistently, and you have to piece it all together and reorganise the lot before you can start.
Documents arrive indexed against the condition they satisfy, in your checklist order, when the project team releases them. Nothing to sort before you begin.
Opening each document, checking what it is, renaming it to your convention and filing it. Invisible work that never appears on a fee proposal.
Every upload named to your convention and filed against the item it satisfies.
Mark up the documents, then go back to the spreadsheet and update statuses by hand so the client knows where things stand. Then email it.
Mark items satisfied, request changes, comment on the item. Your client sees it immediately. No spreadsheet to maintain and no version to send.
Filing documents is the visible half. Building condition schedules, splitting them and rebuilding them every time a consent is modified is the half that costs more, because it takes a certifier rather than an administrator.
Admin nobody budgets for, a year
$627,000Substitute your own numbers. Loaded costs are salary plus on-costs, covering superannuation, payroll tax, leave, insurance and overhead, spread across billable hours. Handling and reconciliation times are assumptions, and we would measure them against your practice during a pilot rather than ask you to take ours. Condition work is counted only on projects carrying a consent schedule, so complying development is excluded.
Registered certifier, building surveyor, private certifier, independent certifier. Whatever the title, the job is the same: requirements, evidence, review, sign-off. Jurisdiction is a filter on the checklist item, not a different product, so your templates and your local language load in rather than needing a rebuild.
Your data
Compliance records carry evidentiary weight, so the audit trail is treated as a core control rather than a logging feature.
Amazon Web Services, Sydney region. All client data, documents and backups stored in Australia. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2 or higher in transit.
Immutable history on every checklist item covering creation, modification, supersession, status change and decision, with the identity and timestamp of the party responsible. Superseded versions are never overwritten or deleted. Exportable as evidence for dispute, insurance or regulatory purposes.
Role based and project scoped. Subcontractors and consultants get an upload link limited to the requirements assigned to them, with no visibility of the wider project.
You own all data, documents and compliance records at all times. Self service export at any time at no cost, in original file formats with a structured CSV and JSON manifest. On termination, a complete export within 10 business days at no cost.
Send us a consent document or checklist and we will show you the client view on the same call.
Every approval condition tracked from the day the project starts through to occupation and handover. No per-user fees, no per-condition fees, and no charge for the consultants, trades and certifier you invite.
Contract sum up to $40m
One project, start to finish. Conditions tracked, consultants chased, and the pack assembled the way your certifier wants it.
Contract sum above $40m
For larger programs with staged approvals, more consultants and a heavier condition load.
Builders and project managers
Running a pipeline rather than a project. We'll set a rate across the program so each new job starts without a new approval.
One party holds the project and pays for it once, whether that's the builder, the developer or the project manager. Everyone else they invite works in DocuBuild at no cost, with no seat limits, now or later.
By practical completion we already hold every certificate, warranty and consultant contact on the project, so the O&M manual and asset register are built from what's already there rather than chased from scratch.
Priced per project against building class and scale, and quoted when the project reaches practical completion. Most builders are replacing a documentation consultant they have already budgeted for.
Ask about handoverRun the project in DocuBuild and bring your trades in with you. Gaps surface early instead of at the end, and your certifier gets the pack in their format, first time, ready to action.
The documents come from your consultants and trades. DocuBuild chases them and shows you who is holding what up.

Most OC delays have nothing to do with the building. They come from documents nobody started early enough, and certificates that bounce over a missing signature.
