Our Services
You Only Pay for What You Need
On-demand support for the moments that matter most.
At What the RFI, every hour is productive, purposeful, and built around your firm’s unique needs.
NO retainers, NO overhead, and NO downtime; just specialized Construction Administration and project coordination support when you need it most.
Construction Administration
Transforming Construction Administration into clarity and control.
Architects should spend more time designing and less time buried in administration.
What the RFI steps in as your behind-the-scenes CA partner—strengthening communication, documentation, and project delivery so your team can focus on design.
Typical services include:
- RFI and submittal review and response
- Preparation of Supplemental Instructions and Change Orders
- Review of pricing and contractor proposals
- Field reviews and on-site coordination (available for projects in proximity)
- Drone aerial photography and progress documentation (if on site)
- Attendance and documentation of site meeting notes
- Support for project closeout and deficiency tracking
Whether remote or on-site, our goal is to safeguard your design intent, reduce rework, and ensure clarity through every phase of construction.
Project Coordination
Alignment and quality before the first shovel hits the ground.
Strong coordination early in the project saves time, money, and credibility later.
What the RFI provides detailed peer reviews and quality checks to help your team catch issues before tender—ensuring accuracy, completeness, and confidence in your documents.
Ideal for firms that want a second set of eyes before tender without pulling senior staff off other projects.
Typical services include:
Peer review prior to tender submissions
Quality-control reviews at key milestone stages
Tender-stage support for RFI responses and alternate requests
Final back-check of drawings and specifications before issuance
Coordination support across disciplines to prevent conflicts and omissions
Our approach strengthens your tender packages, reduces costly revisions, and sets your team up for success from day one.
Architectural Mentorship
Building the next generation of CA leaders.
Your firm is growing, but mentorship can often take a back seat to project deadlines.
What the RFI partners with your leadership team to train, coach, and guide junior and intermediate staff, helping them build the confidence, judgment, and technical awareness needed to excel in Construction Administration and project coordination.
Mentorship support includes:
Tailored training sessions for CA and coordination fundamentals
Guidance on documentation standards, RFIs, submittals, and change management
Group or one-on-one mentorship programs
Optional access to The Architecture Gap community for continued learning and discussion
Together, we’ll help your next generation of architects carry your firm’s standards, culture, and legacy forward.
