One Spine — Complete Project Management
SpinePM takes a package from the moment the enquiry lands to the final account — read the tender in, price the bill of quantities and return a fully-priced bid, then run delivery, the commercials and the contract through to the agreed final account. Complete project management, from first enquiry to final penny.
Built for UK civils, groundworks & infrastructure subcontracting — NEC4, FIDIC, JCT and bespoke, with the Construction Act baseline always enforced.
One spine carries the whole package — no rekeying between an estimating tool, a document store, a spreadsheet and a contract folder.
What it does today
Everything below is live now — from estimating the bid to agreeing the final account. SpinePM is the project, commercial and contract backbone for the whole job — from first enquiry to final penny.
Drop or email a tender in. SpinePM files every document, reads what it can, and flags what's missing before you price.
Build the bill of quantities, price each item or open a full rate build-up from gang, output and materials. Spine totals the tender as you go — and the AI can read the BoQ straight off the tender.
Turn the priced BoQ into a branded, fully-priced return — schedule, total and qualifications — to print or PDF to the client in a click.
Every document gets a reference, revision and ISO 19650-style status — open, revise, archive or remove, with a full audit trail.
Plant, labour and materials at cost-versus-sell, valuation periods, Applications for Payment, retention and live margin (CVR) across the portfolio.
Raise early warnings and compensation events on the contract's own terms, value them and track them to agreement — flowing through to the final account.
NEC4, FIDIC, JCT or bespoke — with the UK Construction Act baseline (payment notices, adjudication, suspension) enforced underneath.
Daily diaries, RAMS, ITPs, daywork and delivery tickets with photos — the evidence that backs every application and delay claim.
An incident and near-miss log with RIDDOR flags, and a Construction Phase Plan kept up to date for every package.
Insurances, accreditations and policies with expiry reminders, plus a branded PQQ / tender-submission builder. Drop documents in and the AI files them.
Your operatives' CSCS cards, plant tickets and training with expiry reminders — drop a card photo and the AI reads the name, type and expiry.
A client-facing view of safety, compliance, contractual behaviour and delivery — honest indicators, with the commercials deliberately kept out.
Reconcile the contract sum and agreed compensation events, less retention and amounts certified, into the balance due — as a branded statement.
Ask anything about a tender and get a streamed answer drawn straight from its own drawings, specification and pricing.
Invite clients or main contractors to a read-only view of only what you share — your commercials stay hidden — and bring your whole team into one workspace.

Who it's for
Civils, drainage and groundworks firms running multiple packages at once.
Estimators and quantity surveyors who need pricing, valuations and live margin.
Anyone moving a package from enquiry to final account and keeping it in order.
A live portfolio view of value, margin and what needs attention — without chasing spreadsheets.
How it works
Drop the documents in, or forward the tender to your SpinePM email address.
Documents sorted into the CDE, key facts pulled out, and anything missing to price is flagged.
Price it, run the commercials and the contract, and share the right view with your client.
Value the work as it's done, keep margin live, and carry the package to final account.
SpinePM is shaped around the real spine of infrastructure subcontracting — drainage, groundworks and civils — and the way a package actually moves from enquiry to final account. It does the commercial work, but it isn't only for the QS: it's the shared system the whole job runs on.
Questions
No. It does the commercial and QS work, but it's built to run the whole package — from pricing the tender and returning a priced bid, through documents, delivery and the contract, to the final account. The estimator, the QS, the project manager and the directors all work from the same place.
NEC4, FIDIC, JCT and bespoke forms, with the UK Construction Act baseline — interim payments, payment & pay-less notices, the right to adjudicate and to suspend — always enforced underneath, even on a bespoke form.
The app runs over HTTPS on EU-hosted infrastructure with a persistent disk and daily backups, and every workspace is isolated. When you share a package, clients and contractors get a read-only view of only what you choose — your rates, cost and margin stay hidden.
It reads the tender's own documents and drawings to answer questions and pull out the key facts on intake; it reads the bill of quantities to extract the priceable items; and it files company documents and workforce cards, reading the type and expiry. It's grounded in your files, names the document a figure came from, and always asks you to verify what matters against the source.
No — start with your next tender. Drop or email one package in and you'll have it filed, read and ready to price in minutes.
Set up your workspace and drop in your first tender in minutes.
