FIG. 01 / THE DELIVERABLE

Illustrative sample · Fictional project data

“We started completely blank, without any explanation, and had a data book for a running project set up and filled with real documents in the first session.

Compiling the data book throughout the project, instead of only at the end, allows us to close the project as soon as possible after delivery of the goods.”

How we handle your ITP

ITP analysis uses Microsoft Azure OpenAI. Microsoft states that prompts and responses are not made available to OpenAI and are not used to train foundation models without permission.

Eligibility & launch offer details

Lower credit usage: 50% fewer credits per credit-charged action on all plans from 17 September through 17 October 2026. From 18 October through 17 November 2026, paid plans use 50% fewer credits per action; Free plans use standard rates. The reduction applies to credit usage, not to subscription prices or credit purchases. Standard credit usage resumes on 18 November. Dates follow the Netherlands time zone. Review the credit charge shown in the app before confirming an action.

500 bonus starter credits: available through 31 October 2026, once per eligible new company domain, on top of the standard free starter bundle. No paid subscription is required. The bonus does not stack with the waitlist starter allocation. Both standard and bonus credits benefit from the launch usage reduction when your plan is eligible. The end of the promotional usage period does not itself remove unused bonus credits.

EP 01 · SEE HOW IT WORKS

DEFINITION

The MDB Builder is a web application that generates an editable Manufacturing Data Book structure from an ITP or template, assembles uploaded certificates and reports into a single bookmarked PDF, and lets your client review and approve the document online — replacing Word indexes, Excel trackers, folder structures, PDF mergers and WeTransfer chains in one tool.

Different names. One place for your documentation.

Organise your Manufacturing Data Book (MDB), Manufacturing Record Book (MRB), Vendor Data Book (VDB) or quality dossier with MDB Builder.

SECTION 02 · THE PLATFORM

Four steps.
From scope to signed.

One platform that replaces Excel trackers, folder structures, PDF mergers, WeTransfer and email review chains — purpose-built for fabrication and engineering quality documentation.

MDB WORKSPACE
FIG. 02 · THE ACTUAL APP · EXPLORE THE WORKSPACE · PROJECT OVERVIEW · STYLE STUDIO
STEP 01

Structure

Start with your ITP. Or a template.

Import your ITP as a PDF and review the AI-proposed chapters alongside your source document. Or start from a template. Adjust the structure to your project, then confirm the chapter costs before saving.

  • ›ASME · PED · EN 1090 · NORSOK · API · DNV
  • ›32+ chapters · 8 standard categories
  • ›Editable per project, reusable across projects
STEP 02

Compile

Upload, organize, and merge into one PDF.

Drag and drop certificates, weld records, NDT reports and inspection sheets into the right sections. The platform assembles a professional PDF with cover page, automatic table of contents, page numbers and bookmarks — server-side.

  • ›Drag-and-drop document upload
  • ›Auto-generated TOC & PDF bookmarks
  • ›Transmittal generation included
STEP 03

Connect

Bring your suppliers into the project — without lock-in.

Invite suppliers to fill the chapters they own. They get a secure link and a free account — set up in seconds via SSO or e-mail verification, no subscription needed — and a free workspace of their own, where the shared dossier stays available. They deliver, you monitor and approve in real time. When their suppliers also use MDB Builder, the project flows seamlessly through the entire chain.

  • ›Free account for every supplier · their own workspace, no subscription
  • ›Real-time delivery monitoring & approval
  • ›Cross-tenant: every link in the chain stays in sync
STEP 04

Review

Let your client annotate and approve online.

Send a secure share link — the reviewer signs in with a free account, no subscription needed. They annotate, comment, and approve or reject directly in the browser. Industry-standard revision flow: IFR → IFA → Approved.

  • ›Secure share link · free reviewer account required
  • ›Inline annotations & comments
  • ›IFR → IFA → Approved revision workflow

A familiar story for every QC manager and document controller.

From scattered documents
to one structured MDB.

Certificates in folders. Weld records in spreadsheets. Review comments in email. Bring your team and suppliers together in one workspace. Here’s how MDB Builder helps you collect, structure and review your project documentation.

01
Collect documents

Upload your own records and invite suppliers to contribute theirs. Suppliers sign in to upload over encrypted connections, with access limited to the sections you share.

02
Structure your book

Organise certificates, reports and inspection records into the right chapters. Assemble a single PDF with an automatic table of contents, page numbers and bookmarks for easy navigation.

03
Manage client review

Invite your client to review, comment on and approve your MDB directly in the application. Access is controlled and connections are encrypted, while feedback and revision status stay together in one workspace.

COLLECT → STRUCTURE → CLIENT REVIEW

SECTION 03 · THE DESK

Two screens.
One book.

Assembling an MDB is drag-and-drop work — so the builder behaves like your desktop. Open the source PDF in one window and the chapter in another, spread them across your monitors, and drag pages straight from one screen into the other. Rearrange chapters the same way. And when a certificate arrives by e-mail, drag it out of Outlook — or any Explorer folder — directly into the chapter where it belongs.

FIG. 04 · THE DESK — DRAG PAGES ACROSS SCREENS · REORDER CHAPTERS · DROP FILES FROM EXPLORER & OUTLOOK

DRAG PAGES ACROSS SCREENS

Open the source PDF in one window and your chapter in the other — side by side, or on your second monitor. Drag the pages you need straight across; they land exactly where you drop them.

REARRANGE EVERYTHING

Chapters and pages are never locked in place. Drag them into a new order whenever the project changes — numbering, table of contents and bookmarks follow automatically.

DROP FROM EXPLORER & OUTLOOK

A certificate arrives by e-mail? Drag the PDF straight out of Outlook — or from any Explorer folder — into the chapter it belongs to. No saving first, no upload dialogs.

SECTION 04 · THE CHAIN

Your suppliers deliver.
You stay in control.

Most of an MDB is not written by you — it arrives from forgers, welding subcontractors and NDT houses. Give each of them a secure link to exactly the sections they own. They upload; you see what landed, what is missing, and who is late — without chasing a single email.

FIG. 05 · DOCUMENT FLOW — SUPPLIERS → MDB BUILDER → CLIENT APPROVAL

SECTION 05 · SECURITY & TRUST

An MDB is evidence.
We guard it accordingly.

A data book carries years of certificates, signatures and approvals — and your client's trust with it. So instead of scattered copies on laptops and inboxes, everything lives in one protected environment: access-controlled, encrypted in transit, and with every action on record.

FIG. 06 · THE SECURITY MODEL — ONE PROTECTED ENVIRONMENT, NOT SCATTERED COPIES

BUILT TO GDPR STANDARDS

Wherever in the world you work from, your data is handled to the standards of the GDPR — one of the strictest privacy frameworks there is. Your documents stay yours: never sold, never shared beyond your project.

SIGN-IN YOUR IT ALREADY TRUSTS

No passwords invented for yet another tool. Sign in with the business account you already have — Microsoft Entra ID or Google Workspace (SSO) — or fall back on verified e-mail. And because teams are bound to their company's e-mail domain, documents can never drift outside the organisations they were shared with.

ENCRYPTED CONNECTIONS

Every upload, review and approval travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS) — between you, your suppliers and your client. Documents never move in the clear.

EVERY ACTION ON RECORD

Who uploaded, viewed, commented and approved — per document, per revision. Combined with the role model below, that's an audit trail you can stand behind years later.

Questions about security or data handling? Read the Privacy Policy or ask us directly at info@bizzbit.com — we'd rather answer twice than leave you guessing.

SECTION 06 · ROLES & PERMISSIONS · ALL PAID PLANS

Three roles.
Zero ambiguity.

Available on all paid plans, starting with Starter. Admins appoint QC Managers; QC Managers appoint the MDB Managers of each book. Each role has clearly defined permissions.

ADMINQC MANAGERMDB MANAGER
FIG. 07 · CHAIN OF COMMAND — WHO APPOINTS WHOM
ROLE 01

Admin

RUNS THE DEPARTMENT

Admins own the account: subscription, members and settings. They decide who leads which project — and how much room the other roles get.

  • ✓Appoint & demote QC Managers
  • ✓Manage members, billing & department settings
  • ✓Configure the rights of the other roles
  • ✕Fill or edit chapter content
    — reserved for MDB Managers
ROLE 02

QC Manager

APPOINTED BY AN ADMIN

QC Managers run day-to-day delivery: the team, the products and the set-up of every MDB in their project.

  • ✓Manage the project team & products
  • ✓Appoint the MDB Managers of every book
  • ✓Share, release & export
  • ✕Fill or edit chapter content
  • ✕Appoint other QC Managers
ROLE 03

MDB Manager

APPOINTED BY A QC MANAGEREXCLUSIVE RIGHTS

MDB Managers hold rights nobody else has — not the QC Manager, not even an Admin. The content of the book is theirs alone.

  • ✓Build & fill the chapters — their exclusive right
  • ✓Manage chapter inboxes & document status
  • ✓Resolve review comments from clients & suppliers
  • ✓Share, release & export — with the correct rights
  • ✕Manage the project team
  • ✕Change department settings

ADJUSTABLE BY THE ADMIN

Structure edits, supplier & customer sharing, releasing revisions and exporting can each be switched on or off per role — so the permission model follows how your team actually works.

EVERY TEAM MEMBER

Anyone on the team can always upload documents to chapter inboxes, view chapters, add comments and sign documents — no role required.
