Brocade
Golden thread software that proves your building information is complete
Your building information scattered across shared drives, email threads, and paper files? The BSR expects version-controlled records with tamper-proof audit trails -- not a folder on SharePoint.
You know your documents are somewhere -- but can you prove it to the BSR?
Under SI 2023/911, Accountable Persons must establish and maintain a golden thread of prescribed building information. That means version control, access logs, and proof that information is accurate, up to date, and accessible. A shared drive does not meet this standard -- and when the BSR calls in your building, you'll need to demonstrate it instantly.
Complete golden thread management
Track, version, and prove your prescribed building information meets SI 2023/911 requirements.
Prescribed information management
Stop guessing whether your records are complete. All 14 categories of prescribed information required under SI 2023/911 are tracked in one place -- what you have, what's missing, and what needs updating.
Version control
Every document update creates a new version with a full change record. See who changed what, when, and why -- so you can answer the BSR's questions with confidence, not anxiety.
Tamper-proof checksums
SHA-256 checksums on every document prove your records haven't been altered. Checksum chains create an immutable audit trail that stands up to scrutiny.
Completeness tracking
Your dashboard shows exactly which categories are complete, which have gaps, and which are overdue for review. Missing data shows as a warning -- never hidden behind a false green.
Review scheduling
Set review frequencies for each document category and let automated reminders do the chasing. You'll never discover a stale document during a BSR visit.
Export and sharing
Export your complete golden thread for BSR assessments, building assessors, or stakeholders. Structured output with full audit trail -- exactly what the assessment process requires.
