How We Migrate You from Another Platform to Space AI

Switching construction software feels risky because your project history lives in the old system. Space AI's white-glove migration team transfers your active data, validates it against your real workflows, and keeps your team productive throughout. Here is exactly what moves, what gets reconfigured, and how long it takes.

What We Transfer

We start by taking an inventory of your active data in the source platform. Our migration specialists map it into Space AI's structure so nothing meaningful is left behind.

  • Projects — active and recently closed, with custom fields preserved
  • Documents and drawing registers, including version history and markups
  • RFIs and submittals with their full status and correspondence threads
  • Schedules — imported and rebuilt into Space AI's scheduling engine
  • Contacts — owners, architects, consultants, subs, and vendors
  • Change orders, daily logs, punch lists, and inspection records

How Long Migration Takes

Most migrations complete in 1–2 weeks. Small residential portfolios can move in days; large enterprise rollouts with parallel operation typically take 2–4 weeks so your team can transition at its own pace.

The Reconfiguration Effort

Data migration is only half the work. We also re-map your workflows so the new system matches how your team actually operates.

  • User roles, permissions, and approval chains rebuilt to match your org
  • RFI and submittal routing recreated from your existing templates
  • Report and dashboard layouts configured from your current KPIs
  • Integrations — email, accounting, BIM tools, and existing connectors

How We Keep You Running

We run Space AI in parallel with your old system during the transition, provide live training for office and field teams, and assign a dedicated migration specialist who stays on the account through go-live and the first full project cycle.

Key Takeaways

  • Active data — projects, documents, RFIs, submittals, schedules, contacts — is fully transferred
  • Most teams go live in 1–2 weeks; large rollouts use parallel operation
  • Workflow reconfiguration is included, not an add-on service
  • A dedicated migration specialist supports you through go-live and beyond
