ABSTRACT:
A method of managing construction work including creating a work request regarding a building in a database coupled to an owner user interface and a builder user interface, assigning the work request created in the database to a trade contractor to complete the work request, and tracking the status of the work request in the database. The method further includes storing the work request, the trade contractor, and the status in the database for subsequent access via at least one of the owner user interface and the builder user interface.
