Step 1 of 7
Project Identity
Basic details — these appear across all documents, cards, and reports.
Six-digit project number used in all filenames and records.
What does this job involve?
Select all that apply — this tailors the rest of the setup. Drawings, manholes and pins only appear for excavation; the adoption step only appears for adoptable drainage.
Adoption Status
Determines which compliance specifications govern this project.
Is this work to be adopted by the DOI?
The DOI Adoptable Drainage Specification will be applied to pipe bedding, reinstatement layers, and inspection requirements. A copy will be uploaded to SharePoint on publish — these specification documents are being built as part of the DGC OS and will be included automatically.
Manx Sewers for Adoption (MSFA)
MSFA always applies to manhole chamber construction on Isle of Man projects. It governs chamber types, ring sizes, benching, and channel dimensions.

Project-Specific Specification Documents
If the tender included additional specifications or employer's requirements, upload them here. They will be stored in SharePoint and used by the AI scope assistant.

PDF, Word, or Markdown · Optional
Import Drawings
Upload project drawings — manhole schedules, pipe runs, and design levels are extracted automatically.
What happens when you upload a drawing? The system reads each drawing and builds a structured data file behind the scenes. This means manhole depths, pipe gradients, and invert levels are available to every part of the DGC OS — excavation cards, trench records, and the site app — without you entering them manually.

Exclusions & Special Conditions
Reference Pins
Surveyed datum levels used on site. Operatives set out and measure work relative to these — dig depths, invert levels, finished floor/surface levels. Levels are in metres OD.
Each pin is a coloured marker at a surveyed level. Work is quoted relative to a pin (e.g. excavation "depth below pin colour", slab level "above pin"). Pins are usually set out once the gang is on site.

Location / Notes

Site Team & Resources
Set up the gang structure and plant. Crew is allocated in the Workforce tab once the project is created.
