In this promotional video, William Doyle MRICS recounts a real £20 million construction claim that nearly collapsed because the contractor lacked clean, contract‑ready records. He uses this example to illustrate the critical need for reliable, timely project documentation. Doyle then introduces Gather, a software tool that automatically captures what work was done, when, and links each activity to the relevant contract clauses. He emphasizes Gather’s simplicity, ease of rollout, and reliability under pressure, positioning it as a solution that helps contractors justify variations, defend claims, get paid faster, and avoid disputes before they arise. The video concludes with a call to action, inviting viewers to book a tailored demo to see how Gather can protect their projects.
