Project Deployment

BuildPodd Created A Free App To Manage Your Project

BuildPodd Created A Free App To Manage Your Project

Our app is called PODD (short for Project On Digital Deployment) or simply Project Deployment.

Project Deployment is quite similar to the traditional construction project management in scope. The difference is that Project Deployment is digital, more visible, accessible to all parties, and it promotes more collaboration and coordination so that the contractor, owner, architect, or project manager can do the daily activities much more efficiently.

We build the team that will build your project

Register your project

Register your project right away, whether you have already an architect or none yet, and we will do everything for you under a design-bid-build or design-and-build arrangement. Contact us for a free consultation.

You may also browse the Partner Showcase and look for inspiration, designers, and builders, which you may endorse to us when you register your project. 


This is completely free.

We'll build the team that builds your project

We will recommend a designer, depending on your need, either an architect or an interior designer. After the design is approved and the plans are prepared, our BuildPodd Deployer will initiate the bidding process for contractors. We will form the team dashboard that includes the designer, the supervising architect or engineer, and the deployment officer, which will also include the winning contractor.

Sign Contract

After negotiating and agreeing on the best proposal, BuildPodd will ensure that the project contract will be properly documented for your protection. All permits and insurances or bonds for your downpayment and all contract documents will be complied with by the winning contractor for maximum and mutual protection of all parties.

Monitor the construction and billings online until turn-over

You will receive daily or weekly progress reports and photos through your dashboard for evaluation if everything is on schedule and as per plans. You will also receive billings for evaluation before payment. When the project is completed, your contractor will upload into your project dashboard all the important documents like punchlists and occupancy permit, as well as retention bonds for the warranties.

The form will help us determine the right contract package for your project – if it should be design-and-build or design-bid-build. It will also help us find the best designers or contractors for your project. You may partially fill up the form and our deployers will contact you to help you accomplish everything.

First, we consider the professional that you will endorse and re-evaluate if it fits well with your project requirement and the current load, capacity, and financial situation of the professional. Then, we get more candidates in our database and present them to you for your approval before we solicit proposals.

Yes, you may still register your project even after selecting a builder on your own as long as the contract is not yet finalized.

About Us

What is BuildPodd?

Call Us
” How can we help rebuild the image of the construction industry amidst the declining productivity and news of fraud and scam by unscrupulous contractor? “
This is the question that ignited the interest of the founder, Bong Haduca, a Civil Engineer, to start his personal cause called BuildSmart Pilipinas.
And in order to concretize his plan, he formed a construction portal called BuildPodd, which will showcase honest and efficient designers and builders and introduce digitalization of the end-to-end project management processes, with focus on small-to-medium-sized projects who can not afford professional managers.
 
We are a team of engineers, architects, and construction professionals with a mission to help Filipinos to look for and organize qualified designers and builders for their construction or renovation projects, big or small, and to spare them from the usual problems like scams, delays, substandard quality, poor workmansip, and cost overruns.
The BuildPodd system revolves around the idea of building an ideal team to do every project. In other words, BuildPodd does not do the actual construction but instead, it creates the trusted team that will be tasked to do the actual site construction using the online apps. The team is called PODD, representing the initials of the key players in a construction project – Project Builder, Owner, Designer, and Deployer. (Coincidentally, PODD also stands for Project On Digital Deployment).

BuildPodd acts as the Deployer. The word deploy is a popular term in military that means to move men and equipment to a specific location. Applied in construction, it means organizing teams and mobilizing resources to build a project.
