Activities

Report Management & Distribution

Key performance indicators must be monitored and measured to understand if you are moving in the right direction. The information that you collect must be available to those who are responsible for keeping the organization on track. Livelink ECM - Report and Output Management helps ensure that the information you produce is available to the right people at the right time.

Solution Adaptations:

  • Report & Output Management
  • Construction Management
  • Streamline the design, building, operation and maintenance of construction-related projects

Construction is a fragmented industry. A typical project is made up of independent parties working together under a construction manager. Architects, designers, engineers, contractors, suppliers and manufacturers must coordinate their efforts across different locations, often using disparate technologies developed specifically for their professions.

As design and construction teams are under increased pressure to reduce risk, control costs and optimize project schedules, Web-based collaboration promises to help coordinate design and build activities to provide better quality and shorter time-to-market.

As a Web-based collaborative environment, Livelink ECM - Construction Management (also known as "Causeway Collaboration" when it is sold by Causeway Technologies or its resellers) gives geographically dispersed members of a team access to projects, processes and information via the Internet.
