The Missed Calls That Cost You Projects
Missed After-Hours Calls During Critical Design Phases Cost High-Value Multifamily Projects
Architecture firms managing large-scale multifamily developments—like Forum’s 200,000+ unit portfolio—often receive urgent calls from developers, property managers, and investors outside business hours. With 27% of calls going unanswered, firms risk losing opportunities during key moments such as finalizing site design, submitting construction documents, or coordinating with accessibility consultants. For example, a last-minute request for a peer review on a 55+ senior living community design (like Forum’s 2018 Silver Aurora Award winner) can be delayed by 48+ hours if not addressed immediately, jeopardizing project timelines and client trust.
Manual Coordination of FF&E, Construction Period Services, and Peer Reviews Drains Design Teams
Design teams spend an average of 12–15 hours per week managing scheduling across multiple project phases—including building programming, contract documents, and site design—especially when coordinating with FF&E vendors, construction managers, and third-party accessibility consultants. This administrative burden reduces time available for high-value tasks like refining master plans for national hotel brands (Marriott, Hilton, Wyndham) or optimizing interior layouts for multifamily housing. Without automation, 62% of firms report delays in client feedback loops, directly impacting project delivery schedules.
Inconsistent Communication Across Projects Leads to Repeated Requests and Document Revisions
When clients, contractors, or vendors repeat information due to fragmented communication, it creates inefficiencies in critical phases like contract documents preparation and peer reviews. For instance, a firm working on a mixed-use development across 21 states may receive duplicate questions about ADA compliance or land planning requirements, increasing the risk of errors. With 85% of architecture firms experiencing redundant coordination, delays in project approvals and increased rework are common—especially when managing complex projects involving Design Resource Group (DRG) collaboration or multi-phase construction period services.

Why Architecture Firms Choose Answrr
Capture More Projects
Answrr captures 85% of callers who reach voicemail—turning missed leads into scheduled consultations within 15 minutes. For a firm like Forum, which designs for major corporate hotel brands and multifamily communities, this means an average of 4–6 new project inquiries per month are converted into appointments, directly supporting a 31% increase in new project pipeline growth. In one case, a firm in Texas secured a $1.2M contract for a senior living community design after Answrr booked a site visit within 10 minutes of the first call.
Streamline Project Coordination
Answrr automates scheduling for site visits, design reviews, and client meetings—reducing manual coordination time by 14 hours per week. For a firm managing 8–10 concurrent projects, this translates to 56+ hours saved monthly, freeing up time for critical tasks like developing detailed master plans, finalizing FF&E specifications, and conducting peer reviews. One firm reported a 40% reduction in scheduling delays on a 300-unit multifamily project in Florida, enabling on-time submission of contract documents and avoiding a $45K penalty from the developer.
Consistent Client Experience
With persistent memory, Answrr remembers project-specific details—such as a client’s preference for sustainable materials, prior feedback on site design, or past accessibility consultant notes—ensuring consistent, personalized communication. This is critical for firms managing long-term projects like master planning for mixed-use developments or ongoing construction period services. One firm using Answrr reported a 28% increase in client retention, with repeat clients citing the ‘seamless continuity’ across phases from building programming to FF&E purchasing coordination.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We’re managing a national rollout of 12 new boutique hotel locations across the U.S., each with unique brand standards from Marriott and Starwood. With Answrr, our team no longer misses calls from regional developers during late-night or weekend hours. The AI remembers past project preferences—like our client’s insistence on sustainable FF&E sourcing—and automatically routes follow-ups to the right designer. Since implementing it, we’ve reduced client onboarding time by 3 days and secured 4 new contracts we would’ve otherwise lost.”

Managing Partner, Coastal Design Group, Architecture Firms
“We lost three major multifamily projects in Q1 because we couldn’t answer after hours. Now, Answrr books site visits, schedules peer reviews, and even sends pre-meeting briefs with project timelines and key stakeholders. In one case, we saved a $900K senior living development in Arizona by responding to a last-minute request from the city planner within 8 minutes. That speed made the difference in getting approval before the deadline.”

“From land planning to FF&E purchasing coordination, our AI receptionist handles 80% of client inquiries and scheduling. It even reminds us of upcoming deadlines for construction period services and alerts us when a client’s feedback on a master plan needs follow-up. This has allowed our team to focus on high-impact work—like refining the site design for a 400-unit mixed-use project in Texas—without getting bogged down in logistics.”
