How do I reduce the number of RFIs on a project?
Last reviewed July 5, 2026
Make sure all your documents are clear and complete before you submit them. Engage with the design team early to iron out issues. Regular site meetings can help catch potential problems before they turn into RFIs.
Key points
- Clear and complete documentation is key.
- Engage with designers early in the process.
- Regular site meetings help identify issues.
RFIs usually come from confusion or lack of information. If everyone understands the plans and specs from the start, you'll cut down on those requests. Check in often with the design team and keep communication open with your crew to avoid surprises.
