Construction project delivery software

Every payment,
backed by proof from site.

BuildLink connects your bill of quantities, daily site evidence and valuations in one record. The QS certifies faster, the owner pays with confidence, and the contractor stops chasing.

Free plan includes 1 active project and 3 seats. Invited clients and consultants never take a paid seat.

The problem

Payment disputes start where the record ends.

The work is on site. The photos are in a chat. The measurement is in a spreadsheet. The certificate is a PDF. Nobody can show the owner how they connect.

Photos in a group chat

Every photo is geotagged, dated and tied to the BOQ line it proves.

Measurements in a spreadsheet

The valuation is built from the BOQ, so quantities, rates and retention are always the same numbers.

Owner asks “what am I paying for?”

A read-only proof portal shows progress, certificates and photos without a site visit.

How it works

One chain of record, from the bill of quantities to the bank.

  1. Step 1

    Price the work

    Import the bill of quantities, split it into work packages and give each one to a crew or subcontractor. Rates, quantities and variations live on the line, not in a side file.

    • CSV import and export
    • Packages by trade, crew or subcontractor
    • Variations that update the line they change

  2. Step 2

    Prove it on site

    Site engineers log the day from their phone. Hold points stop work until the right person signs off. Photos and logs attach themselves to the BOQ lines they cover.

    • Daily logs with weather, crew and safety
    • Hold points that block dependent work
    • Deficiencies tracked from raised to closed
    QA/QC hold points with the work each one stops.
  3. Step 3

    Certify with evidence

    Raise the interim payment certificate with the evidence already attached. The QS reviews, the client approves, and everyone sees who the claim is waiting on.

    • Claim, certify, approve and release in one flow
    • Retention and previous certificates handled for you
    • A clear next step on every certificate
    Valuations list showing each certificate's status and next step.
  4. Step 4

    Invoice and get paid

    Issue a branded PDF invoice from the certificate, email it to the client, and track what is outstanding and what is late. Each payment gets a receipt.

    • Your logo, VAT and bank details on every invoice
    • Outstanding, overdue and not-sent at a glance
    • Receipts emailed when payment is recorded
    Invoices list with outstanding, overdue and collected totals.

The product

Everything a project needs to get paid, and nothing it doesn’t.

Valuations and certificates

Claim work done, certify it, approve it and release payment. Each certificate shows its status, what it is worth and who it is waiting on.

Valuations and certificates list.

Hold points that actually hold

Work that depends on an inspection stays blocked until it is released.

  • Wet-area waterproofingBlocked
  • Pressure test, cold-water risersBlocked
  • Roof slab reinforcementReleased

Invoices with your branding

Logo, VAT, terms and bank details, generated as a PDF from the certificate.

A schedule that knows the critical path

See what is running late, what is next, and which tasks control the finish date.

Variations and deficiencies

Instructions, changes and snags are tracked from raised to closed, each with a photo and an owner.

Deficiencies list with status and priority.

A proof portal for the people who pay

Owners and funders get a read-only view of progress, certificates and photos. No site visit, no extra seat, and your private costing stays private.

  • Progress against the BOQ
  • Approved and paid to date
  • Share links that expire

Built for the field

For the person holding the camera.

Site engineers don’t want another system. They want to log the day, snap the pour and move on. BuildLink opens on a big “Start today’s log” button and keeps everything else out of the way.

  • Log, snap, tagWeather, crew and work done in one pass. Photos attach to the BOQ line.
  • Works on any phoneOpen it in the browser or add it to the home screen. No app store step.
  • Site time, alwaysDates follow the project’s time zone, wherever the office is.

Who it’s for

Everyone on the project sees what they need, and nothing they shouldn’t.

Run the job and the cash in one place.

  • Packages, crews and subcontractors against the BOQ
  • Private costing, stock and payroll that client roles never see
  • Invoices, retention and what is still owed to you
Work packages with BOQ value and people assigned.

Built for projects anywhere

The office is in one country. The site is in another. The dates still agree.

Every date shows in the right time zone, and every amount in the project’s own currency. Calendar dates such as a period ending or a due date never slip a day for someone in a different zone.

Security and control

Your numbers stay yours.

Role-based access

Permissions follow the role on each project. Contractor costing is hidden from client roles by default.

An audit trail

Certifications, approvals, voids and permission changes are recorded with who did them and when.

Share links that expire

Proof links default to an expiry and can be revoked, so a forwarded link doesn’t live forever.

Your data, exportable

Download your BOQ and payments as CSV at any time. BuildLink records amounts and does not hold or move money.

Questions

Answers before you ask.

Is BuildLink only for Nigerian projects?

No. Amounts display in each project’s own currency and dates follow the project’s time zone. Plans are priced in naira today.

Does my client need to pay for a seat?

No. Invited clients, consultants and subcontractors don’t take a paid seat. They see the project through their own role.

Can the client see my costs?

No. Private costing, stock and payroll stay hidden from client roles. Clients see progress, certificates and evidence.

Does BuildLink handle the money?

No. BuildLink records certificates, invoices and payments. It does not hold or move funds, and it is not a replacement for your accounts package.

How do invoices work?

Once a valuation is certified, you issue an invoice from it. BuildLink creates a PDF with your logo, VAT and bank details, emails it to the client, and tracks what is outstanding and overdue.

Can we bring our existing BOQ?

Yes. Import it from CSV, then split it into work packages. You can export it again at any time.
