Know what is happening across every project.
Your teams already produce the record: RFIs, submittals, daily reports, specs, photos. Zerva reads it, shows you what needs attention, answers questions, and has the weekly report ready. Answers and findings link back to the records behind them. Nothing new for the field to fill out.

SUB-0087QC-0031From the record
The data already exists. The understanding doesn't.
Construction went digital years ago. RFIs went into one system, daily reports into another, specs into a PDF, photos onto phones and into folders.
The record is all there. Your team still has to piece the project story together: before every meeting, before every owner update, and every time leadership asks what is going on.
Zerva is the layer that pieces it together.
- RFIs and submittals
- Project management system
- Daily reports
- Field apps
- QC and inspections
- Field apps, PDFs
- Specifications
- Project manual, PDF
- Drawings and documents
- Shared folders
- Photos and site media
- Phones, folders, camera portals
- The weekly story
- Rebuilt by hand, every week
See what needs attention across every project.
What is aging, what is stuck, and where a project is drifting, without opening a log or reading every report.
- Consistent measures
- Each active project is measured the same way, with its source coverage and project context shown alongside.
- Numbers you can check
- Figures show how they were calculated and which records are behind them.
- Pointed at a decision
- A flag comes with the items driving it, so you know what to ask.

Alder Street has run above the company median for three weeks. Three of its open RFIs affect curtain wall work starting next month.
Calculated from 212 RFIs. Business days from submitted to answered. Company median 4.0 d.Weekly brief, ready. Owner update, your call.
Zerva builds the weekly brief from the record: decisions needed, what changed, what is still open, and how RFIs and submittals are moving. For the owner, it drafts careful wording from the same facts. Your PM edits it, approves it, or holds it back.
- Start from the brief, not a blank page
- Open a brief that is already assembled instead of rebuilding the week by hand.
- One brief, two readers
- The project team works from it in the weekly meeting. Leadership reviews the same facts.
For project executives and project managers
RFI responses on this project are running above the company median, 6.5 days against 4.0. Three open RFIs affect upcoming curtain wall work.
Several open questions remain under review. The project team is tracking response timing and will escalate items that affect upcoming work.
Ask the project. Get the answer and the record behind it.
Ask about an RFI, a submittal, or a spec section in plain language. Zerva answers from the record and shows which records it used.
- Specs you can actually search
- Ask what the project manual requires and land on the section and page.
- It tells you what it has not seen
- If a system is not connected or is out of date, the answer says so instead of guessing.
- Useful in the field
- Superintendents and project engineers get answers from the specs and reports they already work with. No new app to feed.
For the whole team, superintendents included
Two open items. RFI-0142 asks the architect to confirm anchor spacing at level 3 and has been open 14 days.[1] The anchor detail falls under section 08 44 13, which requires stamped calculations with the submittal.[2]
SUB-0079 was returned revise and resubmit on Sep 9 and cannot go back until the RFI is answered.[3]

Built so you can trust what it says.
Project data is sensitive, and a confident sentence is not the same as a fact. Zerva is designed around that difference.
Sensitive findings stay inside
Safety, delay, cost, and anything naming a company or a person stays internal until your team has reviewed it.
Zerva does not score people
It measures how work is moving on a project, not who to rate.
Your data stays yours
You choose which projects and systems Zerva can read. How long data is kept, and how you get it out or deleted, is agreed before live project data is connected.
Start by reading the record. Grow into running the work.
Zerva does not ask you to replace your project management system. It starts by making the record you already have useful, and earns more from there.
Intelligence Mode
Where every team startsZerva reads the systems you already run and turns the record into answers, signals, and reports.
- Your project management system stays the system of record. Zerva reads it and does not write back.
- Nothing changes about how the field works.
Operations Mode
Where Zerva is goingSelected records and workflows created, routed, and reviewed in Zerva, where a simpler tool earns the work.
- One workflow at a time. Not a forced platform switch.
- Clear rules for which system holds the record, and when the two sync.
Operations Mode is where we are headed, not something on sale today. Intelligence Mode stands on its own.
See it on one of your projects.
Start with one active project and the systems that matter most. We will scope it with you: which systems, which reports, and who needs to see them.
