Engineering & Construction — SharePoint & Microsoft 365
TechRam builds SharePoint systems for engineering and construction firms, capturing plant records, site inductions and tender libraries where the work happens rather than back at the office. Drawings and past bids stop living in folders one person can navigate, and plant records stop running a service behind.
Drawings, rates and past bids live in folders only one person can navigate. Plant records live in a spreadsheet that is always one service behind, and site inductions are written on paper and typed up later, if at all. We build document control and registers over the tenant you already pay for, with capture that happens at the gate.
Where it usually starts
A tender response rebuilt from scratch because last year’s could not be found. Equipment serviced late because nobody was warned. A contractor on site with lapsed cover.
What changes
A searchable bid library, a plant register with service dates that warn you, inductions and toolbox records filed from a phone, and insurance expiry checked automatically.

Common questions
01. Do you understand Engineering & Construction compliance, or do we have to explain it?
You will not be explaining what a site or plant obligation is. You will have to tell us yours, because they differ by organisation and by state, and that is what the discovery sessions are for.
02. Is this a product for Engineering & Construction, or a project?
A project, and the distinction matters. There is no Engineering & Construction product here to configure into shape, which is why the scope is agreed against your process rather than against a feature list.
03. Do we need a site management platform?
Almost never. We build the document control and the registers over the tenant you already pay for. Where something genuinely is not covered we say so before you commit.
04. Last year's tender response cannot be found. What fixes that?
A searchable bid library, rather than folders only one person can navigate. Drawings, rates and past bids stop depending on whoever built the structure.
05. Can inductions be captured at the gate rather than typed up later?
Yes, and that is the point of capture happening where the work is. Inductions and toolbox records filed from a phone, a plant register whose service dates warn you, and contractor insurance expiry checked automatically.
