Punch lists, work lists, check lists, and work schedules are all different kinds of work/schedule templates.

If you want help developing your work/schedule templates contact us at: support@builditsystems.com

As there are many different kinds of software and file formats, we can't give exact instructions to export your information.

However, if you already have work/schedule templates (punch lists, work lists, check lists, etc.) in electronic format then we can load them into your account for you.

If you have paper schedules fax them to: 1-604-648-8428 

If you have electronic templates email them to: support@builditsystems.com

• Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (preferred), or
• CSV (comma separated values) file, or
• any other common file format

Then we'll load your work/schedule templates into your account, usually within a few hours of receiving them (during normal work hours Pacific Standard Time).

Send us your electronic contacts and we'll load them into your account.

As there are many different kinds of software and file formats, it is not possible to give exact instructions to export every type of electronic contact list.

However, chances are, if you already have a contact list in electronic format, we can load it into your account for you.

Just send us your contact list:

• as a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, or
• a CSV (comma separated values) file, or
• any other common file format

Send us an e-mail with the file attached to: support@builditsystems.com

If you send it using an email program outside of your BuildIT account PLEASE make sure your username is included in the email.

Note: Please include headings in the file (so we can tell the difference between phone numbers, fax numbers, cellular numbers, etc).

For example, in Microsoft Outlook, you can 'import and export' (under the 'file' menu) your contact list 'export to a file' as a 'comma separate values' (CSV) file.

Then we'll do the rest and load your contacts into your account, usually within a few hours of receiving them (during normal work hours Pacific Standard Time).

There is no charge for this. (When was the last time a software company actually offered to help you?)

If you already use Outlook?

Here's how to export your contact list:

Note: this may vary depending on the version you have

1. in Outlook, click on "File"
2. then click on "Import and Export"
3. then click on "Export to a File," then click "Next"
4. then click on "Microsoft Excel," then click "Next"
5. then click to choose the folder containing the contacts data you want to export, then click "Next"
6. type a name for the file, and browse to choose the destination folder, then click "Next"
7. click the "Finish" button to export the selected contacts to the specified file location

Financial institutions, the military, large corporations, and governments all use technology. They spend billions on them and even their systems can go down (it happens).

The question is not whether computer systems go down, they can and do, the real questions are:

• What is being done to make sure your system doesn't go down?
• And how will things be handled when it does?

From the time our web based construction software system was launched it has been "up and running" over 99.985% of the time.

The system is run from a secure, state-of-the-art facility with highly trained staff, quality hardware, regular scheduled maintenance, and off site data back ups.

The system is continuously monitored. If anything goes down, staff is alerted immediately - and they work to fix it immediately.

Compare your computer system to ours...
