One direction up top. A cascade of deadlines below.

You sit between the head contract and the subcontracts — and every direction that comes down triggers obligations in both directions, on different clocks. Hevi runs the whole chain to the letter: specs, notices, variations, records.

⚠ THE SQUEEZE — your subbie's claim lands in 7 days; your upstream notice is due in 14. Hevi tracks both clocks, drafts both notices, and keeps the chain aligned.

Where it leaks on a job

The four failures construction projects pay for twice

Rework from spec drift

Engineers and supervisors get instant, cited answers from the specification — right first time instead of right after the NCR.

Variations done on a nod

The email monitor catches “just proceed” language and triggers the variation process before the work is done unpaid.

EOT claims that die on the time bar

Delay events flagged from diaries the day they happen — notice clocks tracked upstream and downstream simultaneously.

Records that can't carry a claim

Diaries, photos, emails and instructions in one indexed record — the evidence pack builds itself as the job runs.
