Brief + site
A Sisters-area second home for owners who will not be present for every construction decision and are concerned about decision fatigue, schedule visibility, and material approvals.
Remote-decision needs
The process identifies which decisions require live discussion, which can be reviewed asynchronously, what information must accompany a recommendation, and what deadlines protect procurement/construction sequence.
Decision documentation
Selections, approvals, changes, and open questions are recorded so “we thought we decided that” is less likely to become a field problem. Documentation is not a portal gimmick; it is a responsibility record.
Construction communication
Updates are organized around meaningful checkpoints: site/construction progress, decisions due, material/procurement status, changes, and issues. More messages are not automatically more transparency.
What it demonstrates
A remote second-home build can be structured for clarity, but no responsible builder should sell the idea that a highly custom project becomes owner-free because the communication tools are good.
