DARK BLUE BUILDING™
Better protected. Better organised. Built more fairly.
One project record for clients and professionals. Scope, proposals, agreements, milestones, communication and evidence come together, with human DBE review at decisive moments.
Project intake and central account access are available. Project access follows DBE acceptance and assignment. Payments and external guarantees are not yet activated.
DARK BLUE BUILDING™
Location, ambition, scope, budget, timing and permissions.
Feasibility, roles, data quality and required expertise.
Reviewed partner selection or a controlled tender.
Price, exclusions, responsibilities, schedule and milestones.
Evidence requirements, review points and formal change control.
Tasks, inspections, documents, photographs and work-package progress.
Outstanding items, acceptance, as-built records and separate warranty terms.
Product passports, maintenance, Take-Back and Second Life where available.
Assurance begins with a careful process: partner verification, clear agreements, milestone evidence, human review and formal change control. The scope of coordination and inspection is agreed for each project.
This is process assurance. DARK BLUE BUILDING™ is not BouwGarant, an insurer or an escrow provider. Insured guarantees and regulated protection require separate competent providers and terms. A recognised European or global standard is an ambition, not a present status.
Biobased is the project standard. ECOBOARD® is preferred where technically suitable. Alternatives require a reasoned choice, documentary evidence and DBE review. Origin, manufacturer, batch, application, technical suitability, installation and maintenance information belong in the record.
Changes revoke material review. Procurement, execution and handover cannot be accepted without the required reviewed evidence. DBE Approved is a DBE selection and review status, not a substitute for statutory certification. The existing material gate is preserved; central material acceptance remains blocked until the record connector is activated.
Clients follow their projects and decisions. Professionals manage verification, invitations, proposals and project work. One central identity may hold multiple authorised roles; choosing a role does not grant access.
Private clients, developers, property owners, hospitality, owners’ associations, housing associations and public institutions. Architecture, engineering, prefab, installation, landscape, suppliers and maintenance come together. Public work follows the applicable procurement route.
Register every project interaction in its record. Recording or transcription requires clear advance notice and must be legally permitted. Otherwise record minutes with confirmation. Store participants, any transcript, AI summary, decisions, actions and time and budget effects separately.
A transcript or AI summary never automatically amends an agreement. Convert a decision into a formal change request, approval or addendum for signature first. Automatic recording and AI transcription are not yet activated.
The DBE Platform Access Fee is expressly agreed in advance. Development, management, procurement, inspection or specialist services have a separate scope and fee. There is no hidden automatic percentage. DBE receives no construction funds through this environment; PSP, escrow and milestone payments are disabled.
DBE reviews company registration, service areas, expertise, capacity and relevant certificates and insurance. DBE Verified Partner is a reviewed platform status, not an unlimited guarantee. The lowest price does not automatically win; people review suitability.
