Date of Document Transmittal and the documents transmitted should show the actual dates of issue
It was shocking to notice that date and time of issue of document is not shown on 'Document Transmittal'; in lieu of the date of download is shown as 'date of issue'! This is letting subcontractors blame the builder not issuing document on time/ claiming variations. We feel a transmittal to be issued for every set of document issued 'or' the transmittal issued at the time of download should reflect the actual time of issue against each document.
It was also noticed that all the documents issued are not shown in the transmittal! Some of the documents could be superseded by the time subbie download it. But we feel it should appear in transmittal with the date of issue.
We now include the date and time the documents were issued by the builder on the transmittal, as well as the date the documents were downloaded.
