Hevi is a software platform that enables heavy industry contractors to administer project contracts more effectively. Contractors in construction, mining, energy and more are all exposed to significant commercial risk when things change during a project. In these situations, properly following contractual processes can mean the difference between profitability and insolvency. However site teams aren't lawyers and contracts can be complex. It's easy for things to slip between the cracks leading to missed or rejected claims. Hevi provides smart flowcharts and checklists to ensure everyone knows what to do by when. The platform also acts as a conduit between site teams and contract managers, creating a single source of truth for contractual activity. Show less
