Filling in templates is yesterday.

In XBuild each of these templates is an automatic process: the site diary writes itself from the day’s entries, defects are photographed and assigned on your phone, acceptance and handover protocols are generated as PDFs in one click — with photos, signature and dispatch.

All templates may be used freely and shared within your own company. The samples do not replace legal advice in individual cases.
