Blue Orchid.

For development teams

Every permit and condition, with an owner

Blue Orchid reads municipal letters, contractor bids and lender checklists, connects each open item to the project, and drafts the next response when asked for a person to send

What it handles

    Line bids up on scope, exclusions, allowances and assumptions, with the page behind each difference.

  3. 03

    Connect change orders to scope

    Tie each change-order request to the original scope and the correspondence that led to it.
