Everything You Need to Know About AEGIS™

Find clear answers to common questions regarding AEGIS™ platform capabilities, site record capture, contract administration support, project implementation, security, and ongoing professional support.

1. What is AEGIS™?
AEGIS™ is a purpose-built digital platform for construction teams to capture site activity, generate professional reports and maintain structured project records throughout the project lifecycle.

It turns daily site information into organised project intelligence for reporting, contract administration, project controls and better decision-making.
2. Is AEGIS™ only a site reporting tool?
No. Site reporting is only one part of AEGIS™.

AEGIS™ supports project records, dashboards, photo evidence, weather data, delay and disruption records, subcontractor and workforce records, automated reporting and future project controls capability.
3. Who is AEGIS™ suitable for?
AEGIS™ is suitable for contractors, subcontractors, project managers, Engineers, commercial teams, planners, project controls teams, senior management and clients.

It is especially useful on projects with multiple work fronts, subcontractors, reporting obligations, programme pressure or complex stakeholder requirements.
4. Can AEGIS™ be tailored to suit each project?
Yes. AEGIS™ can be configured around the structure of each project.

Projects can be broken down by areas, sections, packages, so information is captured where it belongs and retrieved quickly when needed.
5. How does AEGIS™ support contract administration and commercial control?
AEGIS™ helps teams maintain structured records of progress, delays, disruptions, variations, defects, oral instructions, photographs, weather conditions and formal reports.

These records support day-to-day contract administration, commercial review, help with notices, project governance and, where required, claims or dispute processes.
6. How does AEGIS™ reduce retrospective evidence gathering?
AEGIS™ captures information contemporaneously and stores it in a structured, searchable platform.

Instead of searching through emails, folders, spreadsheets, personal devices and scattered site notes, teams can access project records, photographs, reports and event history from one place.
7. Does AEGIS™ replace existing project systems?
Not necessarily. AEGIS™ is designed to complement existing project systems.

It strengthens the capture, structure and retrieval of site-based project information that supports reporting, programme review, project controls and commercial management.
8. What future capabilities are planned for AEGIS™?
AEGIS™ is continuing to evolve into a broader project intelligence and project controls platform.

Planned future capabilities include programme management and P6 integration, AI-enabled project intelligence, enterprise governance, defect management, pre-drafted templates and notices within the platform and offline operation.
9. How is AEGIS™ implemented on a project?
Implementation starts with working together with the project team, understanding the project structure, reporting needs, users, stakeholders and workflows.

The AEGIS™ team then works with the client to configure the platform, including project breakdown, reporting categories, user access, report formats and information capture requirements.
10. Is training provided?
Yes. On-site support and training can be provided by Engineering professionals who understand construction delivery, project records and contract administration.

The training helps project teams understand how to use AEGIS™ and what critical information should be captured to create reliable project records.
11. How much does AEGIS™ cost?
AEGIS™ is tailored to each project and client requirement.

Because project structure, reporting needs, user numbers, workflows, training and support requirements can vary, a fixed upfront price is not always appropriate.

The AEGIS™ team works with each client to understand the project requirements and prepare a project-specific proposal based on the agreed scope and level of support required.
12. Where is project data stored?
AEGIS™ centralises project information within the platform.

Reports, photographs, weather data, site records, delay and disruption records, workforce information and other project data are stored in one structured and searchable location.
13. Is software support available?
Yes. AEGIS™ provides a single point of contact for software-related support.

This gives project teams a clear pathway for resolving any issues, report generation support, user guidance, project setup queries, system navigation and general troubleshooting.
14. How can we assess whether AEGIS™ is suitable for our project?
The best starting point is a project review discussion.

The AEGIS™ team can review the project structure, reporting requirements, current record-keeping process and stakeholder needs, then advise how AEGIS™ can be configured to support the project.
15. How does AEGIS™ manage photographic evidence?
AEGIS™ helps project teams capture and organise photographic evidence as part of the project record.

Photographs can be associated with relevant project information, reports and events, helping teams establish a clearer record of site conditions, progress, defects, delays and other project activities.

Location and timestamp information provides valuable context around when and where an event was recorded.
16. Can different users have different levels of access?
Yes. AEGIS™ can be configured around project roles and user requirements.

Access can be structured so that different members of the project team can work with the information relevant to their responsibilities, supporting appropriate governance and management of project records.
