Description:
I would like to suggest an enhancement in the Change Orders > Potential Change Orders (PCOs) section of ProjectSight.
Currently, there are limited notification options available when working with PCOs. However, one critical feature that’s missing is a real-time notification or alert system when any user edits or modifies details of an already created PCO, especially the description, cost, or schedule impact fields.
In many project teams, multiple users (e.g., Project Coordinators, Assistant PMs, PMs) are working simultaneously on change orders. When someone edits an existing PCO—such as updating the description, adjusting scope details, or modifying internal notes—others may not be aware unless they manually check the log or download and compare it with a previous version.
This lack of visibility can lead to:
Inaccurate updates to the Master Change Order Log
Duplicate work or missed changes
Miscommunication between the office and field teams
Introduce a notification system that triggers alerts (via email or in-app) when key fields of a PCO are changed. For example:
If User A edits the description of PCO-045, then User B who is also working on the CO log is notified.
The notification could say:
"PCO-045 has been updated by [User A] on [Date/Time]. Description field modified."
Enhances team coordination
Prevents manual re-verification of every log update
Saves time and reduces errors in managing the Master Log
Aligns with collaborative workflows in large teams
I believe this addition would greatly improve change order tracking and streamline project management workflows in ProjectSight.
Thank you for considering this idea.
