BuildFlow — Construction & Fitout Company Management System
WhatsApp us
GCC ready · UAE VAT & FTA compliant

The construction ERP that speaks fitout.

BuildFlow is construction and fit-out management software built for UAE and GCC contractors. BOQs, variation orders, snagging, RFIs, retention and DLP are first-class features — not workarounds — and AI agents watch cost and programme in real time.

The problem

Generic ERP was never built for a fitout job.

So the real work leaks out of it — into spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups and a shared drive nobody trusts. Then the claim arrives and no one can find the transmittal.

Generic ERP
Built for factories and offices
  • BOQs live in Excel, emailed back and forth
  • Snags photographed into a WhatsApp group
  • Retention tracked by memory, released late
  • RFIs and drawing revisions drift apart
  • DLP starts and nobody owns it
BuildFlow
Built for fit-out and construction
PURPOSE-BUILT
  • Sectioned BOQs with versioning, approval lock and 5% VAT applied automatically
  • Snag register by trade and severity, before/after evidence, overdue flagged red
  • Retention register builds itself as invoices are paid; release dates surface in the warranty dashboard
  • Every RFI cross-references the exact drawing revision, aged in days and escalated when overdue
  • Warranty phase with live DLP clocks, callback log and a full document archive behind it

They predict schedule slippage, flag cost overruns before they land, and rebalance labour and materials across sites. Included with every licence — no extra charge.

Live view of progress, delays and site activity across every active job.
PlanForge
Builds programme and execution stages from scope, design through handover.
ResourceGrid
Balances labour, plant and materials to kill shortages and idle time.
CostGuard
Watches budget, spend and variations; surfaces overruns while they're fixable.
FieldSync
Keeps site engineers, subbies and the office on the same version of the truth.
QualityShield
Tracks inspections and snags so nothing moves stage before it's signed off.
