<p>The 5 PM Question is a simple test: if the design changes at 5 PM, will you know by the next morning what it touched and who has to act?</p> <p>BidLight answers yes by keeping your record tied to your Revit model. You skip chasing scattered updates.</p> <p>A practical response:</p> <ul><li>Publish the latest model from Revit.</li><li>Compare it against the previous revision to see which elements changed, grouped by structural, MEP, envelope and interior.</li><li>Pin issues to the elements that need a decision.</li><li>Assign owners.</li><li>They see their items in the 6am digest.</li></ul> <p>You walk in the next morning with a list of what moved and who owns it, and no late-night search through email and markups behind it. About 15 minutes instead of a 90-minute meeting.</p>
