NEMO™ Highways
Built for highway and bridge packages

Every site record you already keep is claim evidence.

A highway package is measured by chainage, buried layer by layer, and paid against Schedule Hthe bill of quantities. NEMO records it that way — so a daily report, an inspection or an NCR is already located, already dated, and already citable in a formal letter under your conditions of contract.

Chainage

Every record is located by chainage.

Location is a first-class field on the daily site report, observations, inspections and RFIs — as a point (Ch. 42+300) or as a reach (Ch. 42+300 to 44+100). Filter any register by stretch of road and the whole history of that reach comes back at once.

Point or reach

An observation is a point. A day's work is a reach. Both are recorded the way the work actually happened.

Assemble a claim by stretch

An EOT argued over a specific reach pulls every DSR, WIR, NCR and RFI that touched it — no manual archaeology.

Structures line up

Bridge elements are named to the drawing register convention, so records and drawings agree on what P-3 is.

Structures

Minor bridges to viaducts, recorded the same way.

Every structure on the package goes up in stages — foundations, piers, caps, deck — and every stage is an inspection on the record, at its chainage.

72 weeks in one minute — with every record filed along the way.

The programme drives the model: as each week passes, the structure goes up and the daily reports, inspections and NCRs land against it, at their chainage.

  • Week 28 — NCR-0015 raised at pier P-3; closed the next week
  • Monsoon — river work stops; girder casting carries on
  • Week 72 — open to traffic, 432 daily reports and 442 inspections on record

Hold points

Work stops until the inspection is cleared in writing.

Once a layer is covered by the next one, the evidence is physically gone. A work inspection request carries a checklist, a named inspector, a result and hold points — and if the result is Fail or Pass with Comments, work does not proceed until the PMC issues written clearance. The clearance is recorded, and the element is re-inspected.

A work inspection request in NEMO Highways: formwork inspection for pier cap P-12, with discipline, location, inspector, a Pass with Comments result, the pour on hold, and a checklist of eleven points with seven done and two hold points open.
The request carries its own checklist. Discipline, chainage, contractor, named inspector, result — and every inspection point either ticked or left open, so a result is evidenced rather than asserted.
The comments thread on the same inspection: the contractor requests clearance, the Engineer's Representative records a bearing pocket 8 mm high against a 5 mm tolerance and holds the pour, the Employer's Representative concurs, and the contractor reports the rectification with photographs. The comments thread on the same inspection: the contractor requests clearance, the Engineer's Representative records a bearing pocket 8 mm high against a 5 mm tolerance and holds the pour, the Employer's Representative concurs, and the contractor reports the rectification with photographs.
And the hold point is argued on the record. A bearing pocket 8 mm high against a 5 mm tolerance, an instruction that the pour must not proceed without clearance, the client concurring, the rectification reported back — all against the WIR, not in somebody's inbox.
Why it exists

Claims are not lost in arbitration. They are lost on site, months earlier.

The evidence is scattered

The NCR is in one register, the inspection in another, the daily report in a site diary, the photographs on someone's phone.

The letter is written from memory

Someone retypes references, dates and severity into a Word template. One transposed reference and the reply challenges the notice itself.

The clock ran out quietly

A 28-day notice under FIDIC 20.2 is time-barred whether or not anyone was counting. Nothing on a spreadsheet turns red on day 27.

Correspondence & claims

Link the record. The letter writes its own citation.

Link site records to a letter and each one is cited formally — the correct reference, date, chainage and severity. Never typed by hand.

Governing: FIDIC 15.1
Subject: Notice to Correct — Reinforcement Non-Conformance, Pier P-3

Dear Sir,

Reference is made to Non-Conformance Report NCR-0015 dated 14 August 2026, relating to Pier P-3 cover block spacing at Ch. 42+300 (Severity: Major). Reference is further made to Work Inspection Request WIR-0042 for Pier P-3 reinforcement cage, inspected on 12 August 2026 with result: Fail.

You are hereby instructed, under Sub-Clause 15.1 of the Conditions of Contract, to rectify the said non-conformance within [REASON — period and specific remedial works] of the date of this notice.

Yours faithfully,

Drafted against your contract

Upload the signed conditions — a standard international form, a national or state authority's own document, an EPC agreement, or conditions drafted for this package alone — and NEMO works from them.

Issue locks it

Issued letters become a dated, locked PDF on your letterhead.

Deadline clocks

Your contract's clocks run whether you watch them or not.

Every deadline is tracked from your own contract's periods and turns red before it is missed — a bespoke 21-day notice as faithfully as a standard 28-day one.

A claim in NEMO Highways on the Clause Chain tab: the FIDIC Sub-Clause 20.2 deadline chain with today's position, the notice of claim done, the fully detailed claim due in 23 days, and what happens if each step is missed. Counters across the top read time-barred, overdue, due within seven days, open and value at stake. A claim in NEMO Highways on the Clause Chain tab: the FIDIC Sub-Clause 20.2 deadline chain with today's position, the notice of claim done, the fully detailed claim due in 23 days, and what happens if each step is missed. Counters across the top read time-barred, overdue, due within seven days, open and value at stake.
The whole chain, not just the first notice. Each step carries the party it binds, the length of the window, the date it falls due — and the consequence of missing it, in the contract's own words: entitlement extinguished, notice of claim deemed valid, deemed determination rejecting the claim. The counters along the top are the ones that matter to a commercial manager: time-barred, overdue, due within seven days, and the value at stake.

Clause numbering and periods are read from the conditions on your own project — the chain above is one contract's; a bespoke form produces its own.

Every module

Everything a highway package has to be able to prove.

One day's daily site report in NEMO Highways: weather, the chainage reach, labour and machinery on site, the work done, materials received and site photographs, approved by the Engineer's Representative. One day's daily site report in NEMO Highways: weather, the chainage reach, labour and machinery on site, the work done, materials received and site photographs, approved by the Engineer's Representative.
One day, already located and already dated. The weather, the reach, that day's labour, machinery, materials and photos — this is what a delay claim is built from eight months later.
The spine

Learn one module and you have learned all of them.

Every module works the same way, so a new site engineer is productive on day one.

Four access levels

From full admin to read-only — so the contractor submits and the PMC approves, on the same record.

Set per module, not globally

The same person can be a PMC Engineer in Inspections and a Viewer in Contracts. Access follows responsibility, which is what an audit expects when it asks who could have approved what.

Questions

What highway teams ask before they bring a package.

Straight answers on fit, site control, claims and getting started. If yours isn't here, ask it on WhatsApp and a real person will answer.

Who is NEMO Highways built for?

Highway and bridge packages, and the three parties who run them: the Contractor, the PMC or Engineer, and the Client. Day to day it is used by site engineers, quality teams, quantity surveyors and contract managers. All of them work in the same project, each with their own access level.

Does it only work with FIDIC contracts?

No. You upload whatever conditions of contract you signed: a standard international form, a national or state authority's own document, an EPC agreement, or conditions written for this one package. NEMO works from the clauses you actually signed.

The deadline clocks use the periods in your contract, so a bespoke 21-day notice is tracked as carefully as a standard 28-day one.

We already use Excel and WhatsApp. Why change?

Excel and WhatsApp hold the information, but they don't connect it. The NCR is in one sheet, the inspection in another, and the photos are on someone's phone. When a claim comes up months later, someone has to rebuild the story from memory.

In NEMO every record is dated and located by chainage from day one, so the evidence for a claim is already assembled. It is not rebuilt eight months later.

How does it stop work going ahead after a failed inspection?

A work inspection request (WIR) carries a checklist, a named inspector and a result. If the result is Fail or Pass with Comments, the next activity is held until written clearance is recorded against that WIR. A buried layer is never closed over on a verbal assurance.

Can we pull up everything that happened on one stretch of road?

Yes. Daily site reports, observations, inspections and RFIs all record their location as a point (Ch. 42+300) or a reach (Ch. 42+300 to 44+100). Filter any register by chainage and the whole history of that stretch comes back together. That is how you build an extension-of-time claim for a specific reach.

Does it handle concrete mix design and material testing?

Yes. Trial mixes, cube results, material tests and batch production are all recorded, and linked to where the concrete was placed.

Can site engineers use it on a phone?

Yes. NEMO Highways runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install. Site engineers can raise a daily report, observation or WIR from a phone at the location and attach photos directly.

Can it draft contract letters for claims?

Yes. You link site records to a correspondence thread: observations, NCRs, WIRs, RFIs, daily site reports and payment certificates. The draft letter then writes a formal citation for each one, with the correct reference, date, chainage and severity. The clause it cites is read from your uploaded conditions of contract.

When you issue it, the letter becomes a dated, locked PDF on your letterhead.

Will it warn us before a notice becomes time-barred?

Yes. Every deadline is tracked from your own contract's periods and turns red before it is missed. The dashboard counts what matters to a commercial manager: time-barred, overdue, due within seven days, and the value at stake.

Does it cover tendering as well as site work?

Yes. Tendering runs from the internal brief through invitation, NDA, clarifications, bid receipt, tender analysis and award. Bids are compared on a level basis and every adjustment is recorded, so the corrected sum can be defended line by line. Once the Letter of Award is stamped by both parties, it creates the contract record, so nothing is typed twice.

How are RA bills and payment certificates worked out?

Measurements build up in one register, and each interim payment certificate is worked out from them — the way an RA bill actually works.

Can the contractor and the PMC work in the same project?

Yes. That is the point. Everyone gets one of four access levels, set per module, so the contractor submits and the PMC approves on the same record.

NDAs, rate schedules and Letters of Award are stamped digitally by both parties, with no printing or scanning.

How do we get started?

Bring one live package, your conditions of contract and one open claim. We set it up with your team. You'll see NEMO working from your own contract, and the first letter that cites its evidence without anyone retyping a reference. Request a demo.

Where is our project data stored, and who can see it?

Your project data is held securely in the cloud and sent over an encrypted connection. Each project is visible only to the people added to its team, at the access level they were given. Issued letters and fully stamped documents are locked and cannot be edited afterwards.

How is it priced?

Pricing depends on the package and how many people from each party need access. We share it after a short demo on your own contract.

Still have a question? Talk on WhatsApp or request a demo.
