Superintendents are able to utilize the advantages of mobile
hardware by issuing observations with supporting photos as they're
walking the jobsite. Offline capabilities ensure that workflow is
unaffected regardless of internet connectivity. "The ease-of-use on
a tablet is where we're seeing the advantages," added Dembickie.
Reporting used to be a highly-manual process involving extracting
and merging data then distributing by email. Viewpoint Field View's
reporting capability enables fast dispatch of information to senior
project team members and company executives. Centralized
distribution ensures that key people aren't accidently left off.
Dembickie and Lyda also selected Viewpoint Team for project
management. Real-time and collaborative, the software facilitates
fast movement of information between office-based architects and
project managers in the trailer. Where RFIs and submittals used to
involve a combination of network drive document storage, email,
Word and Excel, correspondence and interactions now occur within
Viewpoint Team.
"We get a complete picture of a submittal's journey," Lyda said. "No
more emailing the architect for a status update. All the information
is in Viewpoint Team." Every interaction and communication is
logged for a complete audit trail and history. Ball-in-court is easily
identified and email notifications and operations dashboards
prompt team members when action is required.
