RFIs are the cholesterol of the design world.
A little bit keeps the project alive. But when the bad stuff builds up? The pipeline clogs, the project's blood pressure spikes, and your field crew is stuck burning $10,000 a day waiting for an answer.
Engineers hate getting a stack of vague, open-ended RFIs:
"Hey, this contour line doesn't make sense, what do you want us to do here?"
That's just dumping junk food into the project’s bloodstream. It forces the designer to re-open old math from scratch, so it sits on their desk for a week while your iron sits idle.
If you want to clear the arteries, stop sending open-ended riddles. Send the solution with the question.
When we run a digital dry run on a model, we catch those plan errors early. But we don't just ask what's wrong—we give them the exact fix:
"The North parking lot has a drainage issue. If we drop this breakline 0.2', it corrects the flow and drains. Please confirm."
A 10-day RFI bottleneck instantly turns into a 10-minute stamp of approval.
Clear the pipeline, send the solution, and keep the dirt moving.
