Who it’s for

Construction companies that already keep the paperwork of the job

Construction companies with about 30 or more employees — general contractors, specialty trades, and similar firms that already keep project files and job records as part of everyday work.

A good fit

These are the signs we look for before anyone talks about a deal. They are not a promise that a buyer will say yes.

  • A construction company

    A general contractor, a specialty trade, or a similar firm.

  • About 30 or more employees

    That is the lower public threshold this check uses, the figure associated with micro1. Mode’s public page lists construction with most other businesses at 50 or more. We do not use a lower number, and we are not an official partner of either buyer.

  • Everyday project files and job records

    As-builts, RFIs, daily logs, submittals, safety records, work email, and similar records the company already keeps to do the work.

  • Records mainly in English

    English-language records are the fit we can introduce. Partly English is weaker. Records that are not mainly in English are not a current fit on this check.

  • Someone with authority to license them

    A person who can agree, for the company, to license a cleaned-up copy. The company keeps the originals.

What you keep

Your originals stay with you. A buyer licenses a cleaned-up copy of agreed records, not your files, systems, or day-to-day operations. Names and private details are removed before anything is shared, and nothing moves until you review and sign a written agreement with the buyer.
