For property developers in Ghana

Know what still stands in the way of handover.

A progress percentage can look reassuring while unfinished work, design decisions and rising costs tell a different story.

Darikoda brings progress records, open issues and project costs together, so you can ask the right questions before you agree the next handover date. Captured at source.

Before the next contractor meeting

See the work behind the progress report.

Review progress by project and unit, with notes and photos from site. Check what has been certified and what still needs review.

Then follow the open issues: a design decision, missing material or unfinished repair. The conversation can focus on what needs to happen next.

Questions from property developers

Is this for developers building homes and commercial property?

Yes. Darikoda helps developers review recorded progress, unfinished work and costs across their projects. The construction team records the detail on site so management can follow up on what needs attention.

Can we see progress for individual units?

The app keeps units within the project structure, with recorded progress, supporting notes and photos. Progress submitted for certification can be reviewed separately from certified progress, so the team can see what has been checked.

How does it help before handover?

Review the recorded defects and unfinished work, often called snags, alongside progress and open blockers. The team can follow up on what remains and record when a snag has been closed.

Can we see what is likely to delay handover?

Read the open blockers alongside the defect register and the progress submitted for certification. A design decision still waiting on an answer, a material that has not arrived and a repair nobody has closed are the items that push a handover date, and each one sits in the record with the notes and photos from site.

Can we see the cost of changes?

Change orders record cost and revenue changes against the project. Managers can review the reason for a change and its financial effect alongside the wider project records.

Can we use it across more than one project?

Yes. Records are organised by project and unit, so you can review the relevant job rather than rely on a single overall total. Access is assigned by role so people use the records needed for their work.
