Build a construction handover pack in minutes

The problem

Every completed job needs a handover or O&M pack: compliance certificates, warranties, operating manuals, drawings and inspection records, organised so the client can find things years later.

Done by hand, that means renaming dozens of files, merging them in the right order, typing a contents page, numbering pages and hoping nothing was left out — usually an hour or more per project, repeated for every job.

What PDFPUMA does

• Each document is sorted into a section (Certificates, Inspections, Warranties, Manuals, Maintenance, Drawings) from its file name and first page. You check and change any of them.
• Your template lists the sections the client expects, so PDFPUMA shows which ones have nothing in them before you build.
• The pack gets a branded cover, a contents page with page numbers, a bookmark for every section and document, page numbers and your project footer. You can also download the original files organised into numbered section folders.
• Save the template — sections, cover wording and branding — and reuse it for the next project.

Example

How to start

1. Enter the project and choose a template.
2. Add the documents and check the suggested section for each.
3. Review missing sections, then build the pack and download it (and the organised ZIP).

Tips

• Save one template per type of job (for example residential, commercial fit-out) so the expected sections and branding are ready next time.
• Edit each document's title — titles become contents entries and bookmarks (e.g. "Waterproofing certificate — Level 2").
• Run scanned certificates through OCR first if the client needs to search the pack later.

Good to know

• Section suggestions come from file names and the first page's text; scanned documents with no text are sorted by file name only.
• PDFPUMA assembles and organises the documents you provide. It doesn't check whether a pack meets a contract, standard or legal requirement.
