Frequently asked questions about construction collaboration software
What is construction collaboration?

Construction collaboration is the act of all project stakeholders – in the field and in the office – working together in the best interest of completing jobs on budget and on schedule.

How do you collaborate with other contractors digitally?

In the architecture, engineering and construction industries, digital tools provide greater transparency, tighter integration and increased productivity. Change owners, assigned roles and responsibilities, and a cloud-based platform are key factors in enabling digital collaboration in the project.

Why is collaboration important in construction?

In construction, successful collaboration occurs when teams work together to achieve a common goal. Any construction project, large or small, involves numerous teams and collaborators. A single project involves a wide range of roles and responsibilities, from architects to contractors and subcontractors. If these various players are unable to collaborate, the project will suffer.

What is collaborative procurement in construction?

Collaborative Procurement is an efficient method in which multiple clients, contractors, consultants or suppliers join forces to procure works, services, materials or goods; share expertise; promote efficiency; and deliver value-for-money savings in the delivery of a project (or series of projects) or service objectives.

What collaboration tools does a construction manager use?

Unfortunately, the most common cloud-based construction collaboration tools are email or messaging apps. While they are better than paper-based communication options, they fail to bring information together in the context of job requirements, particularly within project management. Centralising all project information in a purpose-built solution makes it easier to collaborate by keeping stakeholders up to date while managing field needs like RFIs & issues.

How can field collaboration software improve productivity for construction projects?

Collaboration is essential for moving a construction project from estimating to the field. By driving consistency and facilitating collaboration, software platforms can be a real asset to teams in the office and crews in the field. When team members have real-time access to the same information, the process is streamlined and conversations are more productive.
