When the average person thinks of construction project management, they think of the big picture: large machinery, giant plan drawings, hardhats and lots of action. These are the coolest parts of construction that we see in Hollywood.

But those of us working in the construction management field know better – there are a LOT of documents, to-do tasks, meetings, emails and pcalls involved in making those cool parts actually come together. In fact, the majority of construction management is behind the scenes, off the job site!

Think about what goes into the building process. Materials, equipment, drawings, documents – on a larger project, there are THOUSANDS of files associated with these! So how are construction project managers supposed to keep track of all this?

That’s where the submittal log comes into play.

In this video we explain what a construction submittal is, the purpose of a submittal log and 5 best practices for maintaining the submittal log on your construction project. Enjoy!
