Features

The following list highlights functionality available no matter whether you require a collaboration solution for a single project, across the enterprise, or to manage a programme of works.

Configurable Document Management Documents can be stored in either a familiar folder-based environment or uploaded en masse and tagged with metadata as unstructured collections, depending on the company or project's requirements
Version Control and Audit Trial All previous versions of documents are stored with their own audit trail, such as when the document was revised, by whom and what metadata was changed. The version format can be configured to be consistent with a company's or project's preferred standards
Multiple File Upload Use the Drag and Drop uploader to upload and tag multiple files quickly and easily
Metadata Tagging Set your own attributes, such as Discipline, Status, Site Codes, on projects and documents to reflect work processes
Configurable Workflow Processes Your Project Administrators control access, setup and configuration of projects and schemas
Document Review and Approval Tracking Documents are sent to users (or even external non-registered recipients) with specific tasks set, e.g. requests to information (RFI), for comment (redline / markup), or for information only
Task Dashboards Users (and their companies) uncompleted tasks are highlighted on a series of single / multi project dashboards
