We pioneered steel detailing as part of our steel engineering services. Now we are pioneering another service that we believe our industry really needs: an affordable service for management and control of construction project information that, to this point, only large design and construction companies could enjoy.

The Problem: Construction projects develop lots of documentation such as computer-aided designs, shop drawings, meeting minutes, news, updates, specifications, etc. Project team distribution must include numerous personnel from a variety of firms, especially architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors and others. Electronic documents, especially drawing files, can be in excess of hundreds of megabytes each making them difficult to share easily. Emailing quickly becomes impossible and FTP is cumbersome and has poor version control: a risk issue that can lead to expensive errors.

The Solution: e-JobSite from TRC InfoTek. Our e-JobSite service provides a shared website for the entire project team to share project documents and news for the life of the project. No more do you need to worry about emailing large files and FTP issues disappear. No time delays or costs associated with shipping paper and no questions about using the most current versions. No expensive software to buy. No complex hardware to manage.

It’s just one more example of our twenty year engineering legacy and expertise leading to the development of solutions for the design and construction industry.
