Highly complex projects generate massive amounts of documents, and require a tremendous amount of organization. The challenge is amplified when you include all of your suppliers and subcontractors, and the intense reporting requirements clients have come to expect. In order to efficiently manage you need an effortless tool to streamline your document workflow.
The next step in project synchronicity is here.
Start to Finish Project Management.
ProjectStep is an Internet-based project management solution that is derived from extensive experience in large scale Project Management in the engineering and construction industry.
Research into the project management application marketspace has provided us with a set of guidelines to develop a solution that has the required tools to maintain order and stay cost effective, while avoiding feature bloat. ProjectStep also works well with others by using industry standards for electronic information exchange.
Accessibility Options.
ProjectStep’s user access security is based on “Teams” which can be arbitrarily created based on your project’s preferences (company, tasks, etc.). Users assigned to the project can be associated with any number of teams by use of Access Control Lists.
Ease of Use.
The advanced document management tools are built to satisfy the needs of anyone in a typical project - from the Engineer to the Project Scheduler to the Document Control Clerk. Most users will be able to use ProjectStep without training.
Time is of the Essence.
If your project is on a limited timeframe, you’re losing money if your team members don’t know when new information has arrived for their review. ProjectStep has an 'Instant Notification' system that sends a message to a preselected list of inidividuals as soon as a new document has been posted.
All Projects are not the same.
An aspect of ProjectStep that adds incredible value is its capability to add modular applications built specifically for each project. Specialized applications like barcode equipment tagging databases can be rapidly developed in a cost-effective manner. The architecture of the system is built upon Aphex’ robust Nitrogen™ Web Application Framework. The system’s flexibility allows for client deployment or can be hosted using a centralized Aphex Chromium managed server located in a secure environment, with extensive data protection and archival procedures, back-up power and redundant internet access.
