February 2, 2022 - BuildSite is pleased to announce it has received US patent number 15/789,848, titled “Apparatus and Method for Integrating Construction Project Specifications and Related Submittal Documentation.” This patent adds protection to the technology embedded in BuildSite’s Submittal.com software application. Submittal.com connects construction project specifications with the submittal documents builders provide to show they have met a specific project requirement. The software covers the entire construction submittal process, from Log creation through Closeouts and Handoffs. General Contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and designers can all take advantage of it. At project end, turnover packages for facility management connect construction with the operations phase of a building. Ned Trainor, President of BuildSite, commented, “We are delighted the US Patent and Trademark Office has recognized the value of integrating specifications and submittal documents, as well as the distinctive nature of BuildSite’s technical approach. It will allow us to offer our submittal application in two forms: standalone, or integrated with other applications.”
