RFI management software that shows who owes the answer

An RFI without an owner becomes a thread. Sigmaviu logs the question, the due chain, the files, and the ball in court, and can surface it in the project communications hub.

Project engineers, design leads, and coordinators.

What changes

  1. 01

    One question, one owner

    The log shows status and who must respond.

  2. 02

    The drawing is attached

    Files come from the document register, not a loose upload you cannot find later.

  3. 03

    It can become a risk

    A comms scan can suggest a risk from an RFI. You apply it if it belongs on the register.

How Sigmaviu handles this

Ordered responses

The same chain pattern as submittals: named steps, return, and history.

Communications hub

Project RFIs appear beside planned stakeholder updates and internal threads, filtered to that project.

Daily report context

Open RFIs can feed the daily-report draft so blockers are not retyped.

Promote a thread

An internal thread can be promoted into an RFI when it is really a formal question.

A working sequence

  1. 1

    Ask

    Write the question and attach the file.

  2. 2

    Assign

    Put it on the person who can answer.

  3. 3

    Answer

    Record the response on that revision of the question.

  4. 4

    Close or change

    Finish it, or raise a change if the answer moves scope.

Scope

RFIs here are Sigmaviu construction and project records. They do not sync themselves into a third-party design tool.

Questions buyers ask

Can a chat message become an RFI?

A project communication thread can be promoted to an RFI when you decide it should be formal.

Will open RFIs show on the daily?

They can be included in the draft. You still edit the report before saving.

Do clients see every RFI?

Only if you publish that information. The staff log is not the portal.
