View RFI Statistics Across Subprojects

The Master Project RFI report shows a statistical summary of the RFIs pertaining to all subprojects of the selected master project. The table intuitively breaks down the number of RFIs based on their statuses and criticality. The report also provides shortcuts to the RFI module of the respective sub-projects.

• General Contractors – Have access to the statistics of all RFIs across all subprojects pertaining to the master projects they manage, providing a comprehensive overview of project inquiries and responses.
• Subcontractors and Other Stakeholders – Can view statistics only for RFIs that they are involved in, pertaining to the subprojects within the selected master project.
