How to Create and Request Requirements

Learn the four ways to create project requirements

Written by Hannah Weidman

Create Requirements in Buildr

Requirements are the documents your project team needs to collect during closeout.

There are four ways to create requirements in Buildr:

  • Import requirements from Procore

  • Import requirements with a CSV

  • Import requirements from a template

  • Create requirements manually

Use this guide to choose the best creation method for your project. After your requirements are created, you can request them from your trade partners.


Import Requirements from Procore

If you use Procore submittals to collect closeout documents, you can import those submittals into Buildr as requirements.

To import requirements from Procore, you must be signed into Buildr with your Procore credentials and your Buildr project must be linked to a Procore project.

Import Requirements with a CSV

If you already have a spreadsheet of requirements, you can import it into Buildr as a CSV. Buildr supports fields such as category, subcontractor, description, location, and specification.

Import Requirements from a Template

Templates help your team create consistent requirements across multiple projects. If your account has saved templates, you can import a template into your project and assign its requirements to the correct companies.

Create Requirements Manually

  1. Click the Requirements tab.

  2. Click New Requirement.

  3. Choose the requirement type.

  4. Select a category.

  5. Add an optional description.

  6. Add internal notes, if needed.

  7. Select the company responsible for the requirement.

  8. Click Create.

Request Requirements

After your requirements are created, they appear in Draft status. When you’re ready to collect documents, request them from your trade partners.
