Construction Management

Engineered for reality

Asset registers, ISO 19650 document management, annexures, and spatial tracking for dynamic project delivery teams.

Asset Hub

A structured record for every piece of equipment

Every asset is a multi-view record — not a row in a spreadsheet. Attributes, validation, photos, links, tags, tasks, containers, relationships, and a QR code, all in one place.

Attributes & DPK

Define typed attribute schemas for every asset class. Group related fields into Data Package Keys (DPKs) for structured bulk capture. Six validation types: BOOL, INT, FLOAT, STRING, REGEX, LINK.

Validation

Field-level validation rules flag bad data the moment it's entered — not months later in a handover audit. Pattern-matched REGEX rules enforce tag formats and reference IDs across the whole register.

Draft Validation

Upload Excel/CSV changes to the Drafts tab. Every change is colour-coded red/green and validated before committing. Review errors row by row before anything touches the register.

Photos

Attach a full photo gallery to any asset. Photos are uploaded, stored, and previewable from desktop and mobile. Field teams document as-installed conditions without leaving the platform.

Links

Configure URL templates that embed asset tag numbers and attributes as variables. One click navigates from an Oestler record to the same asset in any connected system.

Containers & Relationships

Model the physical and logical hierarchy of a facility. Assign assets to containers (systems, floors, process trains). Define typed relationships: feeds, controls, monitors, supplies.

Saved Views

Configure column visibility, order, and filter presets. Save views by name and share them with the team. Column-level attribute filtering with multi-select option lists.

Import

Bulk-import assets from spreadsheets. Map CSV columns to asset fields, validate on import, and review errors before committing. Bring existing registers into the platform without manual entry.

Data Hub

ISO 19650-aligned document management and digital handover

The Document Register, Annexure system, and digital signature workflow bring structured handover compliance to teams that have historically managed it in email and shared drives.

Document Register

Track every project document with title, revision, type (AF, CM, DR, M3), and ISO 19650 suitability code. Filter by discipline, author, or status in seconds.

Suitability Codes

Built-in support for the full ISO 19650 code set: S0 (work in progress) through S7 (archived), surfaced as selectable tags on every document record.

Annexures

Attach structured sign-off sheets to any document. Define reference ID, purpose, and required signatory count. Generate a PDF cover sheet with one click.

Canvas Signatures

Full-screen touch-optimised signature capture, directly in-browser. No plugin or app required. Works from any device a signatory has in the field.

Anonymous Signing

Share a unique /sign/:docId URL with any signatory. They sign without an Oestler account. Signatures are stored and linked to the Annexure immediately.

QR + PDF Export

Export signed Annexures as PDF with embedded metadata. QR codes on printed sheets link back to the live digital record for instant verification in the field.

Manuals

Attach and organise O&M manuals, commissioning reports, and warranty documents against the relevant asset or document entry. Searchable from Knowledge Search.

Signatory View

See signing status for all open Annexures at a glance: who has signed, who is pending, and when each signature was captured. No chasing via email.

Lists

Structured checklists attached to document or asset records for inspection workflows. Items carry completion timestamps and are included in the audit trail.

Field Operations

From physical equipment to digital record in one scan

Every asset generates a unique QR code. The Tag Portal extends that infrastructure to route scans across multiple CMMS and asset management platforms.

QR Code Generation

Every asset record generates a unique, printable QR code linked directly to that record. Print individually or in bulk for site labelling runs.

Built-in QR Scanner

Scan directly inside the Oestler mobile interface. No third-party QR app required. One scan returns the full asset record: attributes, photos, open tasks, commissioning records.

Tag Portal Routing

A single scanned tag can route to any connected platform. Users choose their destination from one interface — IBM Maximo, Hexagon, Power BI, or native Oestler.

Mobile-First Interface

The full asset register, document register, and QR scanner are accessible and fully functional on mobile. Designed for engineers who work away from a desk.

Notebook

Personal productivity built into every seat

Every Construction Management seat includes the full Notebook — to-do management, shared lists, and AI assistance, all connected to your project context.

To-Do Lists

Multiple lists per user. Drag-to-reorder. Every task carries a full audit trail: created, modified, split, merged, completed — all timestamped and attributed.

Split & Merge

Break broad tasks into focused sub-tasks via the Split modal. Combine related items into one with Merge. Lineage is preserved in the audit record.

AI Refine & Suggest

Janus reviews your task list and proposes rewrites (Refine) or entirely new tasks (Suggest). Side-by-side comparison before any change is applied.

Shared Lists

Invite project members to a shared list via email. Collaborators can add, complete, and reorder tasks from their own Notebook view.

Comments & Audit

Add a comment when completing or disregarding a task. The full history of any task is reviewable — reversible at any point with the Revert action.

Kanbans

Visualise any list as a Kanban board. Drag cards between Backlog, In Progress, and Done columns. Board state stays in sync with the list view — switch freely between the two.

Slates

A freeform scratch-pad linked to each list. Write notes, paste references, and draft outlines alongside structured tasks. Slates persist across sessions and surface in search.

Me Graph

A visual timeline of your task completions, splits, merges, and AI interactions. Spot productivity patterns across the day and the work week without any manual tracking.

Roadmaps

Plot tasks and milestones on a horizontal timeline. Assign dates, drag to reschedule, and share the Roadmap view with stakeholders without exporting anything.

Janus AI

Four modes of reasoning with persistent, project-grounded memory

Janus is an AI assistant built into the Notebook that accumulates memory across sessions — drawing on your tasks, conversations, and project context to assist across four distinct cognitive modes.

Ask

General Q&A grounded in your project context and connected manuals. Ask anything about your work without re-explaining context each session.

Reflect

Retrospective analysis of your week using task completions, chat history, and memory fragments. Daily to-do summaries feed into Reflect automatically.

Plan

Forward-looking priority and sprint planning. Janus surfaces what needs attention next based on what you've told it and what your tasks say.

Debate

Structured adversarial reasoning across three simultaneous roles: Advocate For, Advocate Against, and Adjudicator. Each role has its own configurable persona.

Persistent Memory

Janus extracts memory fragments from every conversation and stores them long-term, tagged by source: Chat, Manual, or Todos. Mute or delete individual entries at any time.

Persona Selection

Choose from native Gemini, Descartes, Bertrand Russell, or define your own. Separate persona assignments for each of the three Debate roles.

Prompts Tab

Define Janus's role, responsibilities, technical resources, and communication style in a structured configuration form that persists across all sessions.

Intelligence

Search that understands relationships, not just text

Knowledge Search traverses the relationships between assets, documents, and attributes to return contextually relevant results — not just name matches.

Cross-Register Search

Search by room number and return all assets located there. Search by spec value and find every asset that shares it. Traverse containers, systems, and process trains.

Document Full-Text

Semantic search across all uploaded documents and manuals with instant PDF previews. Find the clause you need without opening files one by one.

Instant Results

Results surface asset tag, description, location, and key attributes inline — ready to navigate into without an extra click.

Administration

Role-based access, project management, and licence control

Oestler's Settings module gives platform administrators full control over who can do what, at the project and organisation level.

Users & Profiles

Manage platform users, update profiles, and configure per-user notification preferences including push and email alert thresholds.

Roles

Define granular permission roles at the project level. Assign roles to users and groups. Roles control read/write/admin access per module.

User Groups

Batch-assign roles and access to user groups. Manage team structures that span multiple projects from a single administration view.

Projects

Create and manage project workspaces. Each project has its own asset register, document register, and notebook — fully isolated from other projects.

Licences

View current plan, active seat count, and token usage. Admin-promotion controls for upgrading team members to higher tiers. Licence status visible per user.

Notifications

In-app notification drawer with real-time updates. Per-user configuration for which events trigger push vs email alerts across all modules.
