RFI follow-up

Turn unanswered site questions into tracked RFIs and follow-ups

Make an unresolved project question visible before it scrolls away, while keeping the response connected to the original site context.

What goes wrong without a record

The conversation moves faster than the administration.

A question asked in chat can look like normal conversation even when work cannot proceed without an answer.

  • No one owns the unanswered question
  • The RFI is drafted without the original context
  • Responses arrive in a different channel
  • The project record never reflects the outcome

Common questions

What the workflow does—and what still needs a person.

Does every question become an RFI?+

No. Convoe can suggest unresolved questions; a person decides whether the issue should become a formal RFI.

Can the response be linked to the work?+

The response and resulting actions can remain connected to the original question and affected project record.

Can RFI due dates be tracked?+

A responsible party and response date can be assigned once the draft is confirmed.
