Reporting and External Stakeholder Management

Reporting to external stakeholders during a construction project can be as time-consuming as managing the project itself. Tracking down data, providing progress reports to owners or elected officials, and reporting to state DOTs can quickly eat up a project manager's time

Is too much of your time going to external stakeholder management?

When we talk to engineering firms and local agencies, we often hear about the following challenges with reporting to owners, auditors, and other external stakeholders:

  • Project managers find themselves on the phone all day providing updates to a mayor or other elected official

  • Trying to find all the right information for an external auditor is extremely time-consuming

  • There’s no way to provide easy updates to the public on project progress in their area

How Appia helps by providing read-only access and GIS dashboards

Appia is a cloud-based construction administration and inspection platform that supports a collaborative, transparent project management process. Appia offers the following functionality to resolve challenges with stakeholder management:

  • Read-only access gives owners the ability to monitor project progress on their own

  • Built-in research and reporting capabilities make it easy to provide data to auditors

  • Integrations with Esri offer access to location-based dashboards to update the public and other stakeholders on project progress

Reporting and stakeholder management testimonials

We’re beginning to see our clients request more digital records. We wanted to capture data in a more digital way to integrate it into some of the other GIS work we do, and ultimately asset management for our clients.
Jaime Kurten, Digital Design Manager, MSA
When Appia came about and read-only access was free, I thought ‘well why don’t I just give them access and have them go in and find out themselves,’ so it saves me a bunch of time since I don’t have to look up answers for them.

Construction Manager, City of Terre Haute
Allowing read-only access and giving [ODOT ]the opportunity to check their reports and see what’s going on and keep up with the progress, that saves us in the long run as well.
