Software Tools
Free project controls, now in one workspace
The BuildPath NZ workspace brings tasks, schedule, quotes, budget, people, documents, drawings, RFIs, variations, inspections, safety, defects and handover into one consistent project interface. The original single-register routes remain available for existing bookmarks.
Workspace mode
Manage the live project in one place
Switch modules without returning to the public guide, search across project records, use app-style boards and dashboards, and export one portable project backup.
Local data and privacy
This free version saves data locally in your browser unless a future version clearly states otherwise. Do not upload confidential documents unless the tool explains how files are handled. These tools do not create a cloud backup. Export important records and place them in the controlled project file.
