Used on more than 2,500 construction tenders and contracts
Expertise has never been the constraint. Complexity is.
More documents, compliance requirements, disciplines and interfaces, on the same deadline. Document tools store and search the files. Reading, checking and comparing are still done by hand.
Missed obligations
Obligations sit across thousands of pages, addenda and award notes. Some get missed, and the cost shows up later.
Obligations and compliance gaps are flagged, with their source, before they become disqualifications or claims.
Time-consuming
Reading document sets by hand leaves too little time for the bid and the risks.
The reading and checking is done early, so the weeks go to the bid and the risks.
Unchecked quantities
The price rests on a bill, drawings and a model made at different times. The differences show up in execution.
The bill is built from the drawings and model where you measure, and checked where the client supplies it.
Lack of repeatability
Every project is unique, but the commercial process repeats. The checks depend on who ran the review, and the lessons leave with the tender.
The same checks run on every tender, and what you learn carries into delivery and the next tender.
The workflows
Give Volve a task and it runs the work, verifies the result and shows how it got there. Save a task as a Playbook to run it on the next project.
Chat reaches the documents, scope and numbers across versions. Longer tasks run in the background and show progress.

What comes back
A risk register with 18 items and 6 time bars, each traced to the clause.
Quantities
Volve checks the bill against your drawings, specification and BIM model, and builds one where the tender has none.
Every line shows how the quantity was found: measured, counted, conditional or not quantified. Your team decides how the gaps close before pricing.

In the specification, not on the drawings
Each line links to the page, drawing or model element it came from.
Risk, scope, bid and procurement. One baseline for the whole team.
Each needs something different as the tender moves from first read into the contract. Findings and sign-offs carry over, so the project team inherits what the bid team found.
Understand what you're taking on
From first read to final account, risk decides the terms you sign. Go/no-go, contract reviews, risk drivers, deviations, obligations and time bars. Volve connects the full set and links each finding to its source.
Free checklist: contract review
Different roles, different needs, one structured baseline.
Contractors and client-side teams run the same checks from each side of the tender. The judgement stays with your team.
Estimates, quantities and pricing, checked against drawings and the model.

Built for construction tenders from the ground up. Volve does the reading and the checking. The decisions stay yours.
Built on a construction commercial graph. Obligations, time bars, deviations and risk are linked the way a contract is built, and each tender adds to your portfolio memory.
Dedicated project types across building, industrial, infrastructure and energy, each with its own packages, disciplines and risks.
Your own contract forms and technical standards, across markets. Whether the tender is built on FIDIC, NEC, JCT or NS, it is checked against the form it uses.
Reads each document in its own language and answers in yours, across suppliers, clients and markets.
PDF, Word and Excel, schedules and BoQs, drawings as PDF or DWG, models as RVT or IFC. From small packs to large, complex document sets.
The same checks on every tender, whoever runs the review. Your team’s own checklists, answered yes or no and traced to the clause, run the same way every time.
Used on more than 2,500 construction tenders and contracts, by contractors and the client-side teams that evaluate their bids.
