Track Your Deadlines

Adding important dates to your jobs is imperative for tracking your deadlines!

Keeping track of what is legally required of you on a construction project is a real headache because it changes depending on the state, project type, and who you were hired by. Then, keeping track of when the different documents are due is another added layer of confusion! Luckily, you have Levelset to do all that for you so that you can be sure your jobs are protected and your payments are prompt.

Let Levelset walk you through each step of a job with Project Milestones. Find out what is required of you based on the job details and state you’re working in while also seeing optional documents that are helpful in prompting and speeding up payment.

 

Adding and updating dates to your jobs is very important! It helps us calculate your deadlines so you’re sending the right document at the right time. Sign in now to add dates to a job in Levelset so you can stay on top of your deadlines.
