Architecture projects are not generic tasks on a Kanban board. They have defined stages — sketch design, design development, construction documentation, contract administration — each with their own deliverables, timelines, and fee allocations. Setout is built around this reality.

Every project in Setout starts with a structure that mirrors your client agreement. Stages map to fee milestones. Deliverables sit within stages. Decisions are recorded with full context so that six months later, when someone asks why the window size changed, the answer is right there — who decided, when, and what the alternatives were.

Document management is not an afterthought. Drawings, consultant reports, specifications, and site photos are organised by stage and deliverable. Version control means you always know which is current, and sharing controls mean clients see exactly what you want them to see, when you want them to see it.
