Scope creep
Scope that grows quietly between revisions - work you never priced, delivered at your cost because there's no variation to claim.

CIM reads every drawing, spec and schedule on every revision and flags the clashes, scope gaps and contradictions before you price the set.
The unpriced liability
A penetration that misses the in-slab services. A spec revision nobody clouded. Every error that reaches site converts to cost - and developers are wary of contractors who can't show it's screened out.

Remediation orders, delayed completion certificates and fines under the Building Regulations.
Developers shortlist contractors who can prove their sets are risk-screened before pricing.

The cost curve
1×
In pre-con
A finding. Fixed in the drawing before anyone prices it.
10×
At procurement
A scope gap. Repriced into trades, argued over.

On site
Rework. Demolition, delay, remediation, fines.
The 1-10-100 rule: an industry rule of thumb, and the reason CIM accreditation targets the drawing stage.
What CIM does
The software your team is accredited on, running every set you price.
Every drawing, spec, schedule and report compared on every revision. Clashes, scope gaps and contradictions flagged before you price the set.
An audit-ready findings register on every project - what was checked, what was found, what was closed out. Evidence you can hand a developer or building control.
Every new revision compared against the last, with each difference written into a change register - including the changes nobody clouded - so you reprice knowing exactly what moved.
The designation
The designation on your tender documents carries three claims a developer can verify.
01
Your drawings, specs and schedules go through automated review on every revision, and pricing starts after the findings are on the table.
02
An audit-ready findings register on every project - what was checked, what was found, what was closed out - ready to hand to the developer or building control.
03
Accredited teams run the same review discipline on every project, whoever is on the job. The developer gets the same rigour on the next job as the one that won you the work.
What the industry says
“CIM Build pointed to new opportunities to de-risk project documentation and procurement. It's pleasing to see how the transformation of construction is accelerating now that the serious players have embraced what good looks like. The days of starting projects with only part documentation are now in the rear view mirror.”

Former NSW Building Commissioner
Why we built CIM
“I've sat through too many design meetings where everyone assumed someone else had checked it. Drawings were technically ‘issued’, procurement moved and the risk only showed up once money was already committed. CIM exists to identify those risks early - before they turn into arguments, delays, or margin erosion.”
