Can You Prove When?

Rebar went up 23% between April and September. You know it. Your supplier knows it. But your owner says "prove it." Without daily documentation, your $800K escalation claim dies in arbitration.

The Cost of Inaction

Every undocumented price change is money you can never recover.

$

$800K escalation claim denied without timestamps

Rebar went up 23% between April and September. You know it. Your supplier knows it. But without daily documentation of each price change, your owner says "prove it" and your claim dies in arbitration.

$

$45K/month extended general conditions undocumented

Weather delays pushed your schedule 6 weeks. Your superintendent remembers the rain days, but the daily reports are blank. Without contemporaneous records, extended GC costs are unrecoverable.

$

6-18 months arbitration without contemporaneous records

Without timestamped field evidence, claims drag through extended arbitration. Opposing counsel challenges every data point. "When exactly did you first notice the price increase?" Silence.

$

Zero recovery on undocumented weather delays

It rained 14 days in March. Your schedule slipped 3 weeks. But your daily reports don't mention weather impact on the critical path. The owner denies the time extension. You absorb the cost.

The Return on POD

Every material delivery becomes claims-ready evidence automatically.

Every delivery price timestamped automatically

When your superintendent reports "rebar delivery today at $1,420 per ton, up from $1,280 last month," POD creates an immutable, timestamped price record. Over months, this builds your escalation evidence.

Contemporaneous price records

Weather-to-delay-to-cost chain documented daily

POD connects daily weather conditions to schedule impact to cost consequences. Rain on Tuesday, no concrete pour, critical path delayed 1 day, $8K in extended GCs. The chain is unbreakable.

Impact chain documentation

Claims-ready evidence package in 2 minutes

Export the complete cost escalation timeline, weather delay log, or schedule impact analysis with one click. Every data point timestamped, GPS-tagged, and tied to the daily report that created it.

2-minute claims export

92% claim success rate with daily documentation

Contractors with contemporaneous daily records win claims at dramatically higher rates. Arbitrators trust timestamped field data. POD gives you the evidence standard that wins.

Higher claim success

The Price Escalation Evidence Chain

Watch how POD connects each material price spike to timestamped field evidence. Every delivery ticket, supplier notice, and daily report becomes an immutable link in your claims documentation.
