RFIs (issued)
The individual Request for Information documents a contractor sends to the design team, one document per request, each with its own number, question, and space for the official response.
What it usually contains
- RFI number, project or contract name, and the date initiated
- The question asked, written out in full, and the reason for asking
- Specification section, drawing sheet number, or detail the question refers to
- Type of request: clarification, conflict, suggestion, or other
- Whether a cost or schedule effect is claimed, and any estimate
- The response block, signature, and date once the design team answers
- Attached sketches, photos, cut sheets, or marked-up drawing excerpts
What the assistant uses it for
Finding what was actually asked on a specific issue and what answer came back, without reopening the file. Also used to check whether the same question has already been raised on this job or another one, and to see which requests are still sitting without a response.
How it is versioned
A document of this type has exactly one current version at a time. Upload a revision and it becomes the version that counts — the one before it is kept and dated, but is no longer what your assistant answers from. Nothing is ever deleted, so you can always show what this document said on a given date.
