Platform
Everything You Need to Manage Retail Rollouts
Purpose-built modules, agentic enablement via MCP, and a tenant-isolated architecture, all in one platform designed specifically for multi-site retail construction and store development.
Platform Modules
Purpose-Built Modules. One Platform.
Every module is purpose-built for retail construction teams and works seamlessly together.
Project Management
Critical-path project schedule built into the platform that already runs the project, with four CPM dependency types, live ripple recalculation, and an append-only change log on every save.
- Gantt with Day, Week, Month, and Quarter scales and a computed today line
- FS, SS, FF, and SF dependencies with signed lag, plus near-critical-band float
- Inline preview of every downstream shift before you commit
- Forward or backward recalculation from the project's target opening date
Budget & Cost Tracking
Real-time budget visibility across your entire portfolio. Track actuals against estimates and catch overruns before they happen.
- Line-item budget tracking
- Change order approval workflows
- Vendor payment management
- Cost-to-complete forecasting
Punch List Management
Capture, classify, and close punch items across every project. Tie outcomes back to vendor scorecards so the same issues stop showing up store after store.
- Item capture with location, assignee, priority, and due date
- Status workflow (open, in-progress, completed) with audit trail
- Portfolio punch analytics by vendor, category, and project
- Closeout gating tied to outstanding-item thresholds
Document Management
All your project documents in one searchable, version-controlled repository. Contracts, specs, closeout packages, and everything attached to a project, location, or RFI.
- Polymorphic file attachment to every entity that needs it
- On-demand previews and bundled downloads
- Customer-controlled share links with expiry and access caps
- Append-only audit trail on every upload, download, and share
Drawings
Upload the architect's multi-page PDF; we split it into individual sheets, read each title block, and publish a clean per-sheet library with full version history. The current set is one click away from a compiled PDF.
- Multi-page PDF upload with automatic per-sheet split and OCR'd title-block tagging
- Per-sheet version history with automatic supersession across re-issuances
- NCS-weighted discipline ordering across lists and the compiled set
- Compile current state to a single PDF in one click
Vendor Management
Manage your entire vendor ecosystem. Track performance, certifications, and capacity across all your projects.
- Vendor scorecards & ratings
- Certification tracking
- Capacity planning
- Bid management & comparison
Reporting & Analytics
Executive-ready dashboards and reports that give leadership the visibility they need to make informed decisions.
- Real-time portfolio dashboards
- Custom report builder
- Scheduled report delivery
- Trend analysis & forecasting
RFI Management
Structured Requests for Information with three-axis classification (Category, Reason, Root Cause), an explicit official answer, vendor-safe visibility, and a litigation-grade audit trail. Built for the $1,080-to-$3,000-per-RFI cost burden multisite operators carry.
- Three-axis classification: Category x Reason x Root Cause
- Per-project auto-numbering with the official-answer badge on the binding comment
- Vendor blackout on Root Cause, with CSV export honouring visibility scope
- Closed-RFI comment lock with administrator reopen and a recorded reason
Multi-Channel Notifications
Right person, right channel, right time. Notifications fan out across email, in-app, SMS, Slack, and push with user-level preferences, quiet hours, and priority routing.
- Email, in-app, SMS, Slack, and push delivery
- Per-user preferences and quiet hours
- Category and priority routing rules
- Event-driven (RFI mentions, status changes, file shares)
Agentic Enablement
Built for the AI Stack You Already Use
We are not in the business of selling you another LLM. We are in the business of making your construction data structured, accessible, and agent-ready, so your team builds the workflows it actually needs on the AI stack of its choice.
MCP Server for Custom Agents
RolloutIQ ships a Model Context Protocol server for your construction data. Connect Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-aware agent with secure customer-managed tokens. Build the AI workflows your team actually needs, on the stack you already use.
Structured Project Data
Drawing sets, schedules, budgets, vendors, permits, and inspections all live as typed, queryable entities. Clean structured data is the prerequisite for any meaningful agentic capability your team builds on top.
Open REST API & Webhooks
Every project entity is available via REST with the same RBAC that guards the UI. Subscribe to schedule changes, permit updates, and budget variances via webhooks. Build custom dashboards, feed data into your warehouse, or trigger downstream agents and automations.
Tenant-Isolated by Architecture
Separate PostgreSQL database per tenant. Cross-tenant data leaks are structurally impossible, not a policy guarantee. Audit logs are append-only and tracked with timestamp, IP, user agent, and change delta. The data your agents read is the data your enterprise security team will sign off on.
Industry-Wide Headwinds
The Universal Headwinds Every Multisite Operator Faces
Beneath segment-specific complexity, the same handful of risks repeat across every retail, hospitality, healthcare, and infrastructure rollout. RolloutIQ surfaces them at the portfolio level so you can act on them before they cost an opening date.
Long-Lead MEP Procurement
Rooftop HVAC at 16 to 20 weeks. Electrical switchgear averaging 44 weeks. Custom hoods at 12 to 20 weeks. Refrigeration at 8 to 16 weeks. Mature operators pre-procure 18 to 24 months ahead of lease execution. Portfolio inventory visibility is now table stakes.
Entitlement & Variance Gating
When use is not by-right (drive-thru in pedestrian district, late-night operation in residential, alcohol near school), discretionary entitlement adds 3 to 9 months. Community opposition is a real kill risk that you need to flag at the deal stage, not at construction start.
Landlord Delivery Risk
Delivery-condition mismatches, late landlord work, and stalled TI draw cycles are the most-cited cause of retail schedule slip. Tracking demised-premises condition, deemed-approval triggers, and TI draw timing is the single highest-leverage portfolio activity.
Permit Multiplicity & Jurisdictional Variance
Building, fire, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, health, signage, grease, hood, and liquor permits each run on different timelines (2 to 8 weeks each). LA, NYC, and SF widen ranges 2 to 3x versus suburban markets. Location-aware permit templates are essential.
Inspection Sequencing & AHJ Sign-Off
Health, fire, mechanical, and final electrical inspections do not run in parallel. Missed sequencing costs 2 to 3 weeks per project. Automating inspection coordination, mapping AHJ dependencies, and triggering only when prerequisites are met removes the most preventable schedule friction.
Stocking Float & Final 20 Percent
The last 20 to 30 percent of construction overlaps IT commissioning, fixture install, and merchandising. Coordination chaos in this window kills opening dates. Visualizing the buffer between substantial completion and grand opening lets PMs spot bottlenecks weeks in advance, not days.
