Work Days instead of Calendar Days

When calculating due dates for RFIs or submittals they are going off of calendar days. Architects and subs are complaining since they get xx number of work days to return the item not calendar days. Is there a way to have a Project Setting for determining work days that can drive the calculations for these items.

    11 months!! Something this easy to implement should take a dev less than 1 day to implement: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40739059/add-working-days-using-javascript  I'm not asking for it to be holiday aware, just days not including Saturday and Sunday. It can be as easy as a toggle switch on the settings page or as complicated as a list of days the job works. Architect as requested this on every job I've worked on. Their patience is waining.

    What about situations where the Architect's work days aren't the same as the GC's? This would be creating another database of information to manage. Every year and technically could change for every project. Keeping it simply calendar days makes it clear across the board.
