01

Document control and registers

Maintain drawing registers, revisions and project files using your document issue and approval process.

02

RFIs and follow-ups

Track RFIs, owners and deadlines. Follow up quotes, deliveries and missing documents, escalating issues as needed.

03

Reporting and schedule administration

Prepare project updates, meeting packs and action lists. Update milestones from your delivery team’s information.

04

Set up project folders and compile handover and completion records, keeping outstanding items visible.

Your team provides systems, standards and technical review. You retain responsibility for programme changes, external commitments and site supervision.

Common questions

Before you hire.

How is this different from a general virtual assistant?

The brief focuses on construction documentation, coordination and project systems. Relevant project experience matters when the work includes drawing revisions, RFIs and site-team follow-ups.

Can they replace a site-based project manager?

This role supports the project team remotely. It does not cover physical inspections, site supervision or decisions requiring someone on site. Your project managers continue to lead delivery.

Can one administrator support several projects?

Yes, if the volume and complexity fit. Scope the number of projects, weekly meetings, document traffic and reporting requirements before deciding whether one person has enough capacity.
