# COMPASS **Construction Open Management Platform for Automated System Solutions** COMPASS is an **open-source construction project management system** built with Next.js, designed as a **1:1 drop-in replacement for BuilderTrend** - without the bloat, recurring SaaS costs, or vendor lock-in. ## The Problem Creating a new project at a construction company currently means: - Manually generating project codes across multiple systems - Filling out the same information in 3-4 different spreadsheets - Setting up 50+ CSI folders manually (30+ minutes of clicking) - Hoping nothing was missed or mis-typed ## The Solution With COMPASS: - **2-minute project creation** - Single form, everything auto-generated - **Auto-provisioning** - Project code, folders, permissions, initial budget - **Zero recurring costs** - Self-hosted, open-source - **Full data ownership** - Your data, your infrastructure ## Features - **Automated Project Setup** - Template-based creation with auto-generated numbering - **Construction Lifecycle Management** - Status tracking from inquiry through completion - **Dual Interfaces** - Separate dashboards for internal teams and clients - **Budget Tracking** - CSI-based budget structure with version control - **Schedule Management** - Gantt charts with dependencies and critical path - **Change Order Workflow** - Major/minor change orders with approval routing - **Contact Logging** - Manual and auto-detected client interactions - **Document Management** - S3-compatible file storage with versioning ## Tech Stack | Layer | Technology | |-------|------------| | Framework | Next.js 15 (App Router) | | Language | TypeScript 5.x | | UI | React 19, shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS 4 | | Database | PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM | | Auth | WorkOS (SSO, directory sync) | | Storage | S3-compatible (AWS S3 / MinIO) | | Jobs | BullMQ + Redis | | Email | Resend | ## Getting Started ### Prerequisites - Node.js 20+ - pnpm 9+ - PostgreSQL 15+ - Redis (for background jobs) ### Quick Start ```bash # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/your-org/compass.git cd compass # Install dependencies pnpm install # Set up environment variables cp .env.example .env.local # Edit .env.local with your configuration # Set up database pnpm db:push pnpm db:seed # Start development server pnpm dev ``` Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) to see the application. ### Environment Setup Create a `.env.local` file with the following variables: ```bash # Database DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/compass" # Auth (WorkOS) WORKOS_API_KEY="sk_..."
