Supply Chain Management
Adaptive provides Digital Tranformation to improve efficiencies throughout
the procurement, inventory and sales lifecycle.
Material Resource Planning is handled efficiently. Simply enter your Bill of Materials,
and the system calculates any shortfalls based on existing stock levels. Receive instant quotes
from approved Suppliers - place purchase orders and track order progress (received, started, on-time or delayed).
Requesting changes to an existing order takes 2-3 clicks and appears instantly in the Supplier Dashboard.
Requests For Information (RFIs)
Simplify flows with developers, sub-contractors, engineers, architects, surveyors, project consultants and clients. RFIs allow for Clarifications, Change Requests, Issues and Substitutions to be discussed methodically, grouped by topic and signed off.
Suppose Topic1, Topic2 and Topic3 are started by your team or a 3rd party. Regardless of when responses are received, each is grouped into the correct topic, with the full thread displaying real-time for both recipient and sender.
E-mail chains, by comparison, are inefficient as there is no grouping by topic, no method of marking status as review, discussion or sign-off and no way to update all internal and external project members.
Secure File Sharing / Document Management
File storage with versioning, lets you share selected files internally, or with third parties. Upload as many file versions as required, then assign only the chosen version to Sub-Contractors, Engineers, Surveyors, Architects or Clients. Third parties can also share files.
Create unlimited folders and filter files by Project Name and Directory to make finding data fast and simple. All files are encrypted and appear instantly in each recipient's dashboard. Add Clients, Sub-Contractors and Stakeholders to Projects. Assign selected files or folders. Errors can quickly be undone by removing file assign.
By comparison, e-mail is plain text and cannot handle large file sizes. If the wrong version or file is e-mailed, there is no way to undo this action.

Digital Reporting
Digital Reporting allows crucial information to be shared between all parties, whether on-site or in the office, and referenced at any future point in time, leading to significant reductions in admin burdens.
Field reporting provides the crew full visibility of the project and outlines items outstanding as well as known issues.
Project Ideas: Brainstorming
Project Management is necessarily well-structured. The downside is it leaves little room for innovation. To encourage brainstorming and free-flowing discussions between any team members or third-parties, we created "Project Ideas". Anyone can start a topic, add Hashtags and select whether to add to the Knowledge Bank.
Users have the option to display their name or post anonymously - the latter would allow disgruntled workers to complain without fear of recrimination. To prevent abuse, we do store "user id" so in extreme cases the user could be traced.
Users can post profiles, like and upvote topics to encourage participation. Hashtags facilitate search and ideas can help grow the knowledge bank.
Main Contractors: Project Management
With our solution, recording keeping, project details, dependencies, timelines, budget and cost, are handled through Gantt Charts with costing incorporated (material costs and labour, adjusted for vacations/leaves). Task reviews monitor progress, request revisions or feedback and generate real-time reports.
Excel, has multiple limitations for Project Management. It provides neither alerts, nor automated team and third party updates and is subject to "fat-finger" errors.
Secure E-Signing
Handle contracts with suppliers and clients with our in-built E-Signing. Contracts may be signed by multiple parties. Enter signature and initial markers, select the order for signers and with system-generated e-mails and reminders, the rest of the process is automated.
Whereas other providers e-mail out links, which are at risk of being intercepted by hackers, our solution only permits logged in users to view and access their contract. Everything is handled inside the system for maximum security.
