Construction projects start well before breaking ground. Storing and managing documentation from initial project concept all the way through close out needs to be simple. You shouldn’t have to jump out of one software and into another to access a document, site survey or drawing.
The construction document control tools in Projectmates enable your team to collaborate in real time from anywhere. Whether it’s a CAD file or drawing set, your team can securely log in and review or make changes from any device.
View 2D and 3D renderings using the built-in BIM viewer just like any other document—no plugins required. Your architect can share CAD files and BIM models with the entire team. Best of all, you can markup CAD and review files just as you would on a PDF document.
In Projectmates, the software automatically creates a log that allows you to see who’s been notified, has downloaded, or simply opened each revision.
This creates an audit trail and eliminates the "I didn't get that file" excuse.
The document management tools have a version control feature to keep track of any revision. If there’s ever a dispute between your architect, general contractor, or any other party, you can easily see who made the revision and when they did it.
To ensure teams stay up to date and on task, real-time collaborative PDF markup capabilities are essential. When your architect is in the office and your GC is on site, they can open, review and collaborate on the same PDF in real time to address any drawing clarifications.
View, modify and markup your 3D files just as you can on a PDF. Review layers, walk through and comment on views of BIM models and other 3D files within the integrated viewer. No additional software necessary.
Projectmates is an intuitive and easy-to-use construction software. So it includes the ability to quickly email a document link to external team members. Simply drag and drop any file to create a sharable link. You also have control of how long any link stays active.
Plus, you can add documents to a project just by emailing them to a targeted folder.
As the Owner, a construction management system needs to reflect your unique business needs. That should include the way the system manages and stores your documents. Since every company runs a little differently, Projectmates is configurable. Easily modify document navigation by phase, division or whatever works best for you and your team.

“What we noticed was within 12 months we had eliminated all the printing and shipping costs, except for permit sets, within our process. A typical project was spending about $45,000 just to print and ship documents.”
