Construction document control and CRM — trusted by 35+ UK firms.

A cloud-based SaaS platform for construction firms — document control, version management, configurable approval workflows, role-based access, and project / financial controls in one system. Built for contractors, developers, consultants, and project teams across UK, UAE, India and beyond.

Construction documentation is high-stakes and high-volume: drawings, approvals, RFIs, transmittals, submittals — across multiple contractors, consultants, and site teams, every one of them in a different timezone. Aedrix centralises that flow into a single source of truth with version control, audit trails, configurable approval routing, and role-based access. The platform has been the document backbone for 35+ UK construction firms and is now deployed across UAE and Indian projects with regional compliance built in.

What's not working today

Construction documentation is where projects quietly leak time.

  • Drawings and documents managed across email, shared drives, and multiple tools — version control breaks down quickly.
  • Manual upload, review, and approval cycles slow projects and create administrative bottlenecks.
  • Project managers and stakeholders lack real-time visibility into document status, pending approvals, and accountability.
  • Rigid systems don't support customisable workflows, role-based access, or project-specific processes — scalability suffers.
  • Outdated or incorrect documents reaching site teams cause errors, rework, compliance issues, and cost overruns.
