Why you were invited to DOMOD

Your contractor works in DOMOD, a system for running construction and renovation projects. You have been given access to the project for your object.

You are not expected to do anything here. The account exists so you can see how the work is going without having to call and ask.

What you can see

The progress of the work. Stages, and inside them task cards with names, deadlines and a colour showing whether each one is on schedule.

Documents. Everything the contractor has shared with you at project and stage level. This can include plans and drawings with markers — pins carrying comments and photographs.

Two channels. A group chat with the management team, and a private chat with the company owner.

The object passport. As each stage is completed, you receive a document describing what was done and with what materials.

What you cannot see, and why

You do not see material specifications, purchase prices or the contractor's internal conversations. That is their commercial record, in the same way you would not expect to see their supplier invoices.

You cannot open a task card: technical descriptions, specifications, reports and the people assigned are part of the contractor's internal workflow. What you get instead is the finished result, in the stage passport.

You also do not message the tradesmen directly — all communication runs through the management. This is what stops you receiving three different answers to the same question.

The part worth keeping

The object passport is the thing to save. It records what paint is on which wall, where the pipes and cables run, how the screed was laid.

Three years from now, when something needs repairing or you come to sell, that document answers questions nobody would otherwise remember. Download the PDF and keep it somewhere safe.
