Better version confidence for plans and change orders
For construction managers, coordinators, and project teams
Keep project files moving when Gmail is full of revised plans and approvals.
AttachDock helps construction teams review attachments from project threads, filter file types, reveal the source email, and Save to Drive without rebuilding the job folder by hand.
Project managers, coordinators, superintendents, subcontractor admins, and office teams
- Revised plans and specs
- Permits and inspection photos
- Change orders and owner approvals
- Subcontractor invoices and lien releases
Security and compliance fit
Project-document controls for plans, approvals, and closeout files.
Construction teams exchange revised plans, permits, lien releases, inspection photos, contracts, and invoices by email. AttachDock helps turn those Gmail conversations into cleaner Drive records.

- Your Gmail messages stay in Gmail. Saved files and archives go to Drive. AttachDock does not store Gmail attachment files on AttachDock servers in ordinary workflows
- Source-message context for revised files, approvals, project milestones, and closeout packages
Workflow example
Submittals, change orders, photos, and invoices filed before the next site meeting
Evan manages projects across owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, inspectors, vendors, and accounting. Gmail is where many project records begin.
The pain
Construction documents have version and accountability questions: which plan revision, who approved the change, when did the inspection report arrive, and what belongs in closeout?
What changes
The project folder catches up to the project conversation without forcing the team into another heavy system.
The AttachDock workflow
- Open the project thread for an RFI, change order, submittal, invoice, or inspection.
- Review drawings, PDFs, spreadsheets, site photos, and vendor docs together.
- Preview the file and confirm the revision before saving it.
- Reveal the source email for approvals, disputes, or meeting prep.
- Save copies to project folders or export a ZIP for owner, subcontractor, or closeout handoff.

Daily workflow
When the job file needs to keep up with the job site
- Collect revised plans, permits, inspection photos, change orders, invoices, lien releases, and specs.
- Confirm whether a file was sent by the owner, architect, subcontractor, inspector, or vendor.
- Save copies into Drive folders by project, phase, vendor, or closeout package.
Where the minutes come back
Small Gmail chores become one focused workflow.
Project-thread scan
Gather plans, photos, PDFs, and spreadsheets from selected project conversations.
Version and sender check
Reveal source emails before filing a revised plan, signed change order, or inspection approval.
Closeout bundle
Save selected files, export a ZIP, or archive the supporting email record to Drive.

How AttachDock fits
Drive becomes the job folder. Gmail stays the conversation.
AttachDock helps project teams keep documents accessible without forcing everyone into another system for basic file collection.
For milestone or closeout records, queue a supported project-label archive to Drive with message pages and attachments.
Example workflow
Before a closeout package
Search the project name, select matching conversations, filter PDFs and images, save key files to the closeout folder, and archive the email trail when needed.
