Newforma© Project Center software is specifically designed to remove time and money draining inefficiencies from AEC project execution.  Easy to implement and quick to learn, its the industry’s  only comprehensive solution to clarify communications and raise accountability – essential elements of a more integrated, collaborative practice. • Organise and manage internal project information, including project e-mail, for all your projects. • Share and track published project information with external team members across all projects. • Streamline project execution processes, including design review, contract administration and more.

E-mail, an increasingly important source of project information and the prevalent medium for decision-making, is disconnected from other project files, and is often hard to organise.
The Newforma solution stores e-mail with project files on the central file server in just a few clicks, and makes searches easy and quick. In this way, everyone on the internal project team can find and open important e-mails.

Comprehensive search

Increasingly complex projects, geographically-dispersed virtual teams, and volumes of email can make finding
a critical document or piece of information a time-consuming or fruitless hunt.

The Newforma solution eliminates this problem by indexing all project files, including e-mails and their attachments. Having contents indexed means it takes mere seconds to find a specific document.

BIM / CAD Design review

Integrated practice means more collaboration from all team members sooner in the design process, but the by product is a proliferation of revisions that need to be shared, compared and reviewed by team members who are not always working with the same design authoring tools.

Newforma Project Center captures mark-up sessions for easy tracking, reviewing and sharing, while allowing document versions to be automatically compared and checked for required or unintended design changes.

External communications

Nothing adds more unnecessary stress to meeting a deadline than the challenge of e-mailing large electronic files that may bounce due to the recipient’s inbox file size limitations.

The Newforma solution overcomes these hurdles with Newforma® Info Exchange, an easy-as-email alternative to FTP servers. Newforma Info Exchange has logging, tracking, notifications and document expiration management built right in.
Project monitoring

In the midst of executing a project, with the reality of unanticipated changes in design, scope or field conditions, it is hard to foresee which challenges threaten to take the project off track.

Newforma© Project Center helps busy architects and engineers monitor everything about their project – from the individual action item or issue to overall activity against the project timeline as a whole. Through a project activity dashboard, project managers can identify when project process threatens to diverge from plan, and can take corrective action.

Contract administration

Considered the most vexing stage of project execution, Contract administration can overwhelm project managers with the manual tasks of logging, tracking, routing and reviewing of thousands of documents – with only spreadsheets or other rudimentary tools to help.

The Newforma solution automates manual tasks right from your e-mail inbox. Less time wasted recording information leaves more time to handle action items.
