Common Questions About This Construction Intranet
What is this construction intranet built with?
It is built entirely with standard SharePoint web parts – News, Events, Image, and Text – plus a custom theme, custom fonts, an extended header, and flexible sections for the layout. There is no custom code and there are no third-party tools anywhere on the page. It is the kind of clean, maintainable intranet Greg Zelfond builds for architecture, engineering, and construction firms.
What’s included on the construction intranet homepage?
The homepage includes a branded header, central news and announcements with a project status stream, frequent links to blueprints, BIM models, change orders, permits, and vendor portals, quick access to frequently used files, project dashboards tracking budgets, timelines, safety metrics, and jobsite progress, a firm calendar, and an Employee of the Month area that celebrates on-site achievements.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Every section is built with out-of-the-box SharePoint capabilities. That matters because out-of-the-box intranets stay stable, secure, and easy to maintain – nothing breaks when Microsoft rolls out updates, and there are no third-party licenses or developers to depend on. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg Zelfond builds, and this design proves how polished that approach can look.
Can this design be customized for our construction firm?
Absolutely. The theme, fonts, logo, and imagery are tailored to your brand, and the structure adapts to your operation – your active projects and jobsites, your links to blueprints, permits, and vendor portals, your safety and training content, and the budget and schedule metrics your leadership tracks. Greg adapts the layout to the way your field crews and office teams actually work.
Will this construction intranet work on mobile devices?
Yes. SharePoint is responsive by design, so the homepage adjusts automatically to phones and tablets through the SharePoint mobile app or a browser. That is especially valuable in construction, where superintendents, foremen, and field crews live on the jobsite and need drawings, safety updates, and announcements without driving back to the trailer or office.
Can Greg build this construction intranet for our firm?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box intranets like this one for architecture, engineering, and construction firms, tailored to your brand, projects, and workflows.
