There are a fair few doc management for construction companies around now. So i'd be surprised if any large project wasn't using a managed or self hosted one today. and several of them have fancy tools that can pull in 3d models and the like. (oracle bought one that i worked at)
- jessaustin 6y agoI've hired an architect at a "big" construction firm (they regularly manage multistory hospital construction) to design some "medium" buildings and remodels. When I visited his office to talk through some change orders (I'm thinking this was about three years ago?), it was all Windows shared folders and carefully constructed file names.
- tacticus 6y ago:O I wonder if they moved to different solutions when they started bringing in subbies? for a counter example. I'm currently getting a small house built and the near by land developers are mostly using the SAAS solution I worked at to manage the construction\design of each subdivision.
- jessaustin 6y agoI've hired numerous subcontractors who don't use email. These guys require printed plans. Hell, the local fire inspectors require printed plans, even though they prefer not to fill out paper inspection reports. People who haven't used change control have a hard time imagining what they're missing.
- tacticus 6y agoWow it's a substantially different experience with most that i've been across here. Almost every subbie I've met even those building residential properties have a few mobile apps for doc management and so many ipads for plan review\access\defecting The last plumber I worked with had the quote in my email with updated pricing and online billing before they got back to their ute.
