Run the Project
Run the whole project in one place
One place to run your RFIs, submittals, transmittals, and approvals. Configured to how you actually work, live in an afternoon, no consultants required.
Set it up in an afternoon, not a fiscal quarter
14-day free trial. No setup call. No implementation fee.
The problem
Right now the job lives in nine places at once
The RFI is in your email. The submittal is in a drive somebody renamed. The latest set is on an iPad in a truck. When the GC asks where things stand, you spend twenty minutes finding out before you can answer.
Formis ends the scavenger hunt.

FORMIS
One place for all of it.
Four things that change how the job runs
One record for the job
RFIs, submittals, transmittals, and change orders. Logged, numbered, versioned, searchable. You always have the receipt.
Runs your way
Build the forms, set the routing, write the notifications to match how you run the work. Change it in an afternoon. No consulting firm.
Send to anyone, free
Transmit to an architect, owner's rep, or sub. They receive, download, and acknowledge with no account and no seat consumed.
Formis AI
Catch the RFI the drawings already answered before it's filed. Reasons like a senior engineer, stays out of the EoR's lane.
Most tools make you run the project their way. Formis runs it yours
Build your workflow by dragging steps onto a canvas: reviews, approvals, conditions, routing, and notifications. If you can picture how your process runs, you can build it, and anyone on your team can follow it.
This is the difference that matters. The big platforms force your whole team onto their way of working, so you burn weeks retraining staff and subcontractors on someone else's process. Formis bends to how you already run the job. You keep your process, and the time and money the retraining would have cost.
- Drag and drop the steps. No code, no consultant, anyone can do it.
- Decide who reviews, who approves, and what happens when it comes back.
- Write the notification emails in your own words.
- Change any of it in an afternoon when the job changes.

Where Formis fits
Too big, too rigid, or half a tool
The enterprise platforms do everything, once you sign the contract and survive the rollout. The field apps are quick to start but stop at the plans. Most PMs are on neither.
Enterprise platforms
Powerful, and priced for it.
Procore, Unifier, Aconex. Everything you could want, after a big contract, a long implementation, and someone to run it.
Field apps
Quick, but half the job.
Great for plans and markup. The moment an RFI needs to route, approve, and become a record, you're back in your inbox.
Formis
The one that fits.
The whole submittal-to-approval loop, configured to your process, running this afternoon. Priced like a tool you put on the job.
The cost of the status quo
\~14 hrs
lost per person, every week, to chasing information and redoing work.
5.5 hrs
of that spent just looking for the right document or answer.
5-9%
of total project cost lost to rework, much of it avoidable.
