AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction)

Managing costs, more effectively sharing information and conserving resources are challenges for AEC firms
Design and construction projects create numerous paper documents of all shapes and sizes that must be retained along with related emails, purchase orders and invoices. AEC firms often refer to plans, estimates and photos from current and past projects and paging through paper files is not a productive use of time. Many firms want to “go green” by reducing the amount of paper produced by copying and sharing documents manually. AEC firms are also seeking to gain efficiencies through faster handoffs from design to building or manufacturing.

AEC firms benefit from the increased efficiencies achieved through enterprise document management
With a document management solution, AEC firms can archive all paper and electronic documents related to a project electronically. Document management offers the ability to consolidate and view cost information, better manage the change-order process and reflect design revisions immediately downstream in the project process. Easily capture, index and retrieve documents such as emails, CAD drawings, blueprints, contracts, vendor documentation, purchase orders and invoices. Spend less time on administration and more time on core business tasks.
