Comment Closure

After a review round, someone has to confirm that all the comments were actually addressed. Comment Closure does that pass for you: give it the list of review comments, and it checks each one against the latest drawings, confirming what's resolved and what still isn't.

Use case: verify that all 40 reviewer comments from the last round were actually addressed.

How it works

  1. Open Comment Closure from the tools rail.
  2. Bring in the review comments: import them from a document or markup set, or add them by hand. If your reviewers work in Bluebeam, pull their markups in directly.
  3. Run the closure check. The platform reads each comment, finds the relevant location in the current drawings, and judges whether the requested change was made.
  4. Work through the results: each comment comes back as resolved, not resolved, or needs a human look, with evidence from the drawing so you can confirm the call in one click.

Triaging results

Treat the output as a pre-sorted worklist:

  • Resolved items just need a quick confirm.
  • Not resolved items are your real punch list; assign them as issues to whoever owns the fix.
  • Uncertain items are flagged honestly rather than guessed, so the tool never quietly closes a comment that wasn't fixed.

Why it matters

Comment closure is where things slip: a comment acknowledged in the response letter but never picked up in the drawings. Checking each comment against the sheets, not against the response narrative, catches exactly that.

Available on request

Comment Closure is enabled per organization. If you don't see it in your workspace, talk to us.
