Bouw7

What Stevin gets out of Bouw7

Bouw7 handles project administration for contractors and finishing firms solidly: estimating, planning, hours and invoicing all sit neatly at the project level. The data is correct, that is not the problem. The problem is that it stays inside the system while the real work happens in email and on site. We see teams stall on exactly that gap: a quote nobody followed up, extra work that was never confirmed, a planning step that gets blocked without anyone noticing. Bouw7 records all of it, but it taps no one on the shoulder. That is the layer we put Stevin on. Through the API, an export or a mail parser, Stevin reads projects, estimates and planning and turns them into signals with a concrete next action underneath. The project lead sees every action that carries weight first, before anything goes out the door.

What you pair it with

Choosing Bouw7 means your administration is in order, but the follow-up still has to come from somewhere. In practice that follow-up lives in someone's inbox or in their head, and that scales badly the moment you run more projects at once. The connection runs through the API or an export, so the question is not whether the data comes out, but what happens to it once a quote is left sitting. Count on watching the planning side alongside Bouw7, because the system does not flag on its own when a step stalls.

Common mistakes

• →Assuming that recording data well is the same as following up: the quote keeps sitting there.
• →Letting follow-up live in the inbox, which falls apart once you run more projects.
• →Not confirming extra work because no one has a signal set on it.
• →Only noticing a blocked planning step when the site goes quiet.
