Rework as the standard
52% of cost growth on construction projects comes from rework. Without decision traceability, each correction generates another, and the budget dissolves before delivery.

The project advances on the physical-financial schedule. The commercial team is still negotiating in the dark.
Construction is 14–15% less productive than the global average - but the bottleneck isn't the job site. It's the disconnect between BDI, measurement, and commercial pipeline. Bunker connects engineering, execution, and portfolio with Bunker Protocol, Salesforce, and AI applied to EPC operations.

Goolsbee & Syverson / NBER 2023The silent risk in construction
Eight out of ten infrastructure projects exceed budget. Can your operation anticipate before rework consumes the margin?
When commercial, engineering, and site operations run on separate systems, every decision happens without context. The result is a schedule that's just a promise - and margin that erodes with every amendment.
The real scenario
Four fractures that erode BDI with every measurement
The proposal lives in email, amendments have no traceability, and the physical-financial schedule is sacred - but nobody connects what was sold with what is being executed. Every deviation becomes rework that erodes the project's BDI.
Systems that don't talk to each other
US$15.8 billion per year lost due to inadequate software interoperability. Each area operates with its own version of the truth, and the project pays the cost of disconnection.
Gallaher et al. / NIST 2004Productivity in structural decline
More than 50 years of declining productivity in construction, while other sectors grew 290%. Operational inertia accumulates with every project that lacks governance.
Goolsbee & Syverson / NBER 2023Commercial pipeline without visibility
Proposals, contracts, and amendments managed in spreadsheets and emails. Executive management doesn't know where it's losing conversion or where the margin evaporates.
Construction Integrated Architecture
Bunker
We know what BDI, physical-financial schedule, and contract amendments mean - no explanation needed.
The schedule is sacred, but the commercial proposal lives in email. Every amendment is a risk or opportunity, and neither has traceability. Measurement is delayed and cash flow is strangled. The Bunker Protocol connects commercial, engineering, and the job site in a single architecture: with contract governance, amendment traceability, and an integrated view between backlog and schedule.
We don't sell CRM. We design the operation that connects proposal, contract, and measurement in an auditable flow.
- +300 CRM projects: including engineering and heavy construction operations
- +120K users impacted, from commercial proposal to project management
- Commercial governance deployed in 8 countries with infrastructure operations
- Direct experience in construction companies, concessionaires, and large-scale projects
Bunker Protocol applied to Construction
Four phases. One architecture. Auditable results.

From isolated job site to integrated physical-financial schedule
Without Bunker
Each project as a black box
- Commercial and engineering with separate data and conflicting project versions
- Project execution with no link to the customer's commercial history
- Amendments approved without centralized governance or traceability
- Pipeline invisible to the contractor's executive management
- Accumulated rework without root cause diagnosis
With Bunker
Proposal, contract, and measurement in a traceable flow
- Unified view of customer, contract, and project across commercial, engineering, and job site
- Execution connected to CRM with prioritization by value and risk
- Amendment governance with traceability by project and phase
- Auditable pipeline with real-time executive predictability
- AI applied to the daily routine with alerts, summaries, and action recommendations
Every amendment without traceability is BDI that dissolves before measurement.
The first step is an operations diagnostic. No fancy slide deck, no talk of "pipeline" as if it were a transactional sale. We map where your operation loses margin between proposal, contract, amendment, and schedule.
Frequently asked questions
Answers for Construction and Infrastructure
01 How does it work for those operating with long-cycle projects and constant amendments? Expand
The protocol is designed for long cycles. The diagnostic maps where amendments and claims arise from lack of visibility - not from poorly defined scope. The architecture connects proposal, contract, and project execution so deviations are detected before they become losses.
02 Do you integrate with ERP, BIM, and job site systems? Expand
We integrate Salesforce with ERP, project systems, and job site data. The goal is for commercial, engineering, and contract management to operate on a single base - without project managers having to consolidate data manually.
03 What is the impact for those who already have structured project management? Expand
Project management takes care of execution. The protocol takes care of the connection between execution and commercial intelligence: who sells, how they negotiate, what they deliver. When these two layers don't communicate, BDI erodes without anyone seeing it in time.
