How construction firms are taking advantage of technology – Construction Document Storage

Traditionally a lot of Construction Document Storage consists of lots of project files both in paper and digital format that are stored by companies on-site or on a few office-based computers. There’s typically an initial outlay for Windows/Mac based software to manage the companies accounts and documentation. There is also an emphasis to ensure these machines securely store and manage their company files while some effort is made to build a reliable system. Both the computers and software can be quite expensive and will on average become outdated & slow, resulting in a lot of the IT needed to be overhauled within a relatively short period of time. If a project drawing is needed in a specific project site location a courier is often used to deliver the files. This could incur additional company expenditures for a utility vehicle, manpower and courier services.

You are also able to email these files to other users as you see fit. Yes, sending company files, documents and drawings to a user’s group or specific email address are included in our system. Users can also use the bulk email sending feature that can help to send files in bulk, saving lots of time. Our system automatically generates an audit trail on the files that were sent to ensure that project managers can be confident with their communication and fall back on a reliable audit trail should a dispute occur.

Receiving live updates through notifications is also an important feature in our software. Managers can set up automatic notification reminders for a specific user or construction professional. The notification system will immediately notify the recipient of any major update coming from their Managers. Users won’t miss any updates or advisory for any adjustments that are needed in their projects.
