What is the Review Flow for the Log Type 4 (RFP Log)?

When logged into Submittal Exchange, select a project. The steps are listed as column headings in the Display Full Log view.

  1. A Consultant can upload the initial RFP document.
    • The Architect can also do an initial upload, skipping the Consultant altogether.
  2. The Architect then reviews the Consultant's file or uploads a new document. The Architect can:
    • Replace the Consultant's upload.

    AND/OR

    • Upload their reviewed file (with or without changes).
  3. The Subcontractor can review the Architect's file by uploading the reviewed file (with or without changes).
    • Multiple Subcontractor reviews may be performed within this step if there are more Subcontractor companies that need to review the same document.

      Note: Most logs with this review flow do NOT include Subcontractors within the review on Submittal Exchange.

  4. The General Contractor then reviews the Subcontractor's file by uploading their reviewed file (with or without changes).
    • The General Contractor can skip the Subcontractor reviews altogether, meaning that Step #3 can be skipped entirely.
  5. The Project Team can then download the final reviewed file.
