Request for Information

Request for Information (RFI) definition for construction. Learn how to document and resolve project ambiguities with architects and engineers.

Calculation Formula

RFI Resolution Time = Σ (Date Resolved - Date Issued) / Total RFIs

Real Contractor Example

A contractor noticed the electrical plans don't show a power source for the HVAC unit. They issue an RFI to the architect asking for clarification.
