Can MiOpsAI handle change orders and homeowner selections for construction jobs?

Yes. Change orders and homeowner selections are both core Hive plus Julia workflows for residential builders and remodelers.

How selections work:

  • Selection sheets in Julia. Each job has a selection list (cabinets, countertops, flooring, tile, appliances, fixtures, paint, hardware) with deadlines. Homeowner sees allowance, catalog links, and status per item.
  • LizziAI reminders. If a selection is not made by 5 days before deadline, LizziAI drafts a reminder to the homeowner with the specific decision needed and the impact on schedule if delayed.
  • Approvals logged. Homeowner marks a selection approved in Julia, decision is timestamped in Hive with the specific product SKU or spec.

How change orders work:

  • Change trigger: Homeowner requests a change (add a window, upgrade countertop), or field condition forces a change (rock during excavation, framing conflict). Team creates a change order in Hive with description, cost impact, and schedule impact.
  • LizziAI drafts the change order email. Formatted to your firm's template, sent to the homeowner for approval, with plain-language impact.
  • Homeowner reviews and approves in Julia. Signature capture handled through your existing e-sig tool (DocuSign, HelloSign) triggered from Hive. Native e-signature is on the 2026 roadmap.
  • Downstream update: Approved change order updates the job budget in Hive, notifies the responsible sub via email (drafted by LizziAI), and updates the schedule if the change impacts critical path.

What we do NOT do: sync the change order back into your estimating tool (STACK, PlanSwift stay as source of truth for the original estimate) or your accounting cost coding (that flows through QuickBooks Contractor via a manual step or webhook).
