Overall Satisfaction with Procore
We use Procore to manage meeting minutes, RFIs, material submittals, shop drawing review, architectural set distribution, and record team directory. It is a good tool for recording and distributing changes in the project to all consultants. We communicate with all factories, architects, engineers, and general contractors to utilize Procore to: answer questions they have on the project, inquire for additional information and record for what change orders are warranted.
- Tracking changes in project form factory and GC initial bid.
- Develop RFIs for specific questions on specifications, scope of work and open items.
- Generate templates for material submittals.
- Track meeting minutes and distribute to consultants.
- Record contact information for external consultants.
- For modular construction, develop a process to easily keep track of modular shop drawings and revisions.
- Have flexibility to adjust nomenclature for review process.
- When viewing emails from Procore, it takes time to understand the purpose of email. Too much unrelated information is provided on email.
- Wish Procore could auto generate emails to send consultants of due dates. Example, tell modular manufacturer they need to provide a material submittal by x days or they will be behind on material procurement.
None, Procore is the first program we are using to manage modular production.
Yes, we are constantly reminding new users from our line of work to utilize Procore and its capabilities. Having cloud based access help to distribute states submittal plans, architectural set, shop drawings, material procurement, and photos of the building. In the modular world, General contractors have many questions on scope of work and structural details. The picture tool helps us distribute a picture of other projects to new modular general contractors.
- We increased efficiency on answering and recording RFIs
- Saved countless pages and hard drive memory by cloud collaboration.
- Centralizes meeting agenda and notes from the meetings tool.
- Gain visibility into projects
- Ensure information is accessible and up to date
- Document job site conditions

The following tools help distribute documents and job coordination: Meetings, RFI, Submittal, Drawings, Photos.
Drawings help to notify when changes have been made by architect, engineers or other consultants. It can also help factories and general contractors keep track of what has changed from their initial bid to contract pricing. It also gives organized documentation of change orders.
Change orders could be a good tool to add in Procore.
