Elevate a Coordination Issue to an RFI

プロジェクトの調整段階では、衝突やその他の建設上の問題が調整の問題として識別され、追跡されることがよくあります。これにより、プロジェクトチームは協力し、設計上の矛盾を非公式かつ効率的に解決できます。これは、建物モデルを改良するために必要な日常的なやり取りを管理する効果的な方法です。

ただし、問題によっては非公式に解決できない場合や、設計チームのメンバーまたは他の主要な利害関係者からの正式な契約上の対応が必要になる場合があります。整合性問題で公式の文書化された質問と回答が必要な場合は、情報提供依頼 (RFI) に昇格させる必要があります。これにより、クエリがプロジェクトの情報提供依頼ツールで正式に追跡され、回答が公式のプロジェクト記録の一部になり、コスト、スケジュール、または範囲に影響を与える可能性のある必要な明確化が提供されます。

問題のステータスは、情報提供依頼の進行状況に基づいて自動的に更新されます。

• 高レベル: 情報提供依頼にリンクされるとすぐに、問題のステータスが「昇格」に変わります。「公式」な回答なしに情報提供依頼が再開された場合、ステータスは 「昇格 済み」に戻ります。

• リリース済み: 誰かが情報提供依頼に「公式」回答を追加すると、ステータスが「リリース済み」に変わります。「公式」回答が記録された後に情報提供依頼が再開された場合、ステータスは [リリース 済み] のままになります。

• Required User Permissions:

  • You need both of the following:

    • 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Coordination Issues tool.

    • 'Standard' or 'Admin' level permissions on the project's RFIs tool. Note: Users with 'Standard' level permissions on the project's Coordination Issues and RFIs tools can elevate issues they have created to an RFI.

• Additional Information:

  • You can elevate a coordination issue to a new draft RFI or link it to an existing RFI. Once elevated, you cannot close it or elevate it again until the linked RFI is closed. An issue can only be elevated once. If you need to reverse this action, you can unlink the RFI from the issue.
