Projects

What Are Projects?

Projects are the central unit of work in SuperConstruct. Each project represents a construction job — whether it's a commercial building, residential development, public infrastructure, or renovation. All modules (SOV, Pay Applications, Daily Logs, etc.) exist within the context of a project.

Accessing Projects

After selecting a company from the Companies page, you'll see the list of projects for that company. You can filter projects by status tabs.

Project Statuses

• Draft — project is being set up, not yet active
• Active — project is in progress, certain fields become locked for audit integrity
• Completed — project work is finished

Creating a Project

Click "New Project" to start the creation process. The form has several sections:

Project Details

• Project Name — the official name of the project
• Project Type — searchable dropdown (commercial, residential, infrastructure, etc.)
• Project Number — unique identifier
• Description — detailed project description

Financials

• Budget — total project budget
• Contingency Budget — reserved funds for unexpected costs
• Currency — defaults to your company's preferred currency (USD/INR)

Schedule

• Start Date and End Date
• Working Days — select 5-day (Mon–Fri) or 6-day (Mon–Sat) work weeks

Location

• Address — with Google Places autocomplete
• Auto-fills city, state, and ZIP code from the selected address

Governance Settings

• SOV Mandatory — whether Schedule of Values is required before pay applications
• Supports UOM — enable Unit of Measure tracking
• Allow Owners to Create SOV — let owner-role users create their own SOV

Save Options

• Save as Draft — save for later, continue editing
• Publish as Active — make the project live (locks certain fields)

Once a project is Active, fields like Project Number and dates become locked to maintain audit integrity.
