Not only are thousands and thousands of documents involved in a large construction project, but they’re always changing hands. Project staff members review these documents, then make comments, ask questions and request additional information. This back-and-forth can include several revisions for even one single document before it’s approved to proceed. This is why every successful project must have a submittal log. This is a ledger that tracks every document on the project: who put it together, when they sent it, who reviewed/responded to it, when they responded, and so on. Ideally, everything down to the nut and bolt is recorded in this process.
