Engineering Document Management for AEC

Document Locator is Engineering Document Management Software for AEC firms and professionals in construction and engineering. It improves collaboration with more efficient review and approval processes, reduces risk with greater accountability and control, and increases efficiency across the AEC enterprise.

Collaboration, Control, and Efficiency

With Engineering Document Management, you can share information, record changes, and track approvals among people across different AEC roles, tasks, and departments. Our specialized AEC Document Management capabilities allow you to manage CAD files, designs, technical documents, drawings, project files, and communications within an enterprise document management solution.

You can automatically capture and log information in RFIs, Submittals, RFQs, and Change Order processes. Custom workflows will route information to the right people for follow-up, review and approval, and alert stakeholders of pending deadlines. For Vendor Submittals, Engineering Document Management will reduce the amount of time it takes to exchange AEC documents from several days to just minutes–leaving more time for reviews and approvals and less risk of missing costly deadlines.
