• Include the ability to track revisions and approvals with timestamps.
• Site Instruction Logs
• Maintain detailed logs for all site instructions, including:
• Originator and recipients.
• Instruction details and file attachments.
• Real-time tracking of acknowledgment and completion.
• RFI (Request for Information) Logs
• Centralized log for all RFIs with:
• Submission date and details.
• Responses from responsible parties.
• Deadlines and priority levels for resolution.
