Find the variation evidence stuck in your live job

We take the chats, photos, emails and dockets from one live job and turn them into a sourced variation evidence register your commercial team can review and act on — before more context disappears.

What the register looks like

A working review view, not another spreadsheet handed over at month end. Search the register, filter by review status and open any variation to inspect the records behind it.

Human decision required

Human decision required. Devy links the records. Your commercial team determines entitlement, value and next action.

The exact format is agreed with your team. This example keeps every record connected to source material a person can check.

The operating problem

Where variation evidence breaks

The work happens on site. The proof has to reach the commercial team while it can still be verified.

  1. 01

    The direction happens on site

    A change is agreed in the moment. The commercial record has to catch up while the details are still clear — and often it never does.

  2. 02

    The proof is split across channels

    The instruction is in a message, the photo on a phone and the docket in an inbox. No one sees the complete event.

  3. 03

    The register starts too late

    By month end the office is reconstructing events from memory instead of reviewing a clean evidence trail.

How it works

How the review works

One live project. Existing records. Human decisions stay with your team.

  1. 01

    Choose one live project

    Share a defined period of chats, emails, photos and dockets under a confidentiality agreement.

  2. 02

    We trace the evidence

    We group potential change events and link each one to its source records. We do not decide entitlement or value.

  3. 03

    Your team reviews the register

    Your commercial owner accepts, rejects or adds context. You keep the reviewed register and the baseline.

What you receive

Exactly what is delivered — and what is not

A focused offer should not turn out to mean a sales call. This is the deliverable, spelled out.

Variation Evidence Review — deliverables

What you receive
A sourced variation evidence register — delivered as a working document or a simple review view, whichever suits your team.
Who reviews it
Your nominated commercial owner — a director, commercial manager or contract administrator.
Records required
A defined period of site chats, emails, photos and dockets for one live project, shared under a signed confidentiality agreement.
How long it takes
Scoped on the qualification call — the review runs against a defined record period, not an open-ended engagement.
What you keep
The reviewed register and the baseline count of potential changes and available evidence — whether or not you continue with Devy.
Not included
Entitlement decisions, valuations, notices or claims, and legal, accounting or quantity-surveying advice. The review organises evidence; your team makes every commercial decision.
Fit

A narrow offer, on purpose

The work is measured against real records, so the fit criteria matter more than the volume of requests.

A fit if you’re

  • A commercial MEP or fire protection contractor — mechanical, electrical, plumbing, hydraulics or fire
  • Able to share the relevant records under a signed confidentiality agreement
  • A named commercial contact who will review the output
  • A live commercial project with a defined record period to review

Not a fit if

  • The project is finished or the account is final — this works on live jobs
  • You’re in a live dispute or adjudication — you need a construction lawyer, not us
  • You’re mostly residential or maintenance — different contracts, different problem
  • You need legal advice, quantity-surveying certification or an automatic entitlement decision
Illustrative example — not a real client result

Closing the site-to-office gap

This labelled scenario shows how Devy reasons about a contractor’s site-to-office trail. It is not a reported client result.

Operating context
An MEP contractor running installation and service crews across concurrent projects.
Previous workflow
Photos and texts reach supervisors; variations are reconstructed at claim time; test records are assembled at handover.
What changes in this scenario
A focused, crew-friendly capture flow feeds the current job and accounting systems and prepares the records needed for office review.

What happens afterwards?

You keep the output whether or not you continue with Devy. If the review exposes a repeatable workflow worth improving, the next step may be configuration, an integration, a focused build — or an Evidence-to-Claim Discovery Week to define the wider system. There is no obligation to proceed.
