Link to Your Project Management and Document Storage Apps
Civil Tracker is making it easier to connect to your project management tools, document libraries and collaboration software directly from Civil Tracker. You can do this adding our new document link feature. We do this by adding the ability to link all your documents related to a single project within Civil Tracker!
Why Connect Your Various Apps?
Connecting various apps for project management is crucial as it streamlines workflows, enhances communication, and improves overall productivity. Connectivity ensures that all project components, such as documents, timelines, and drone maps, are aligned, enabling better tracking and decision-making. The document link tool minimizes the time to switch from your drone mapping software to your other project management tools, saving time and reducing complexity in managing projects effectively.
Example 3rd Party Links
We’ve been working with our customers to integrated various tools with popular ones being Autodesk Construction Cloud, SharePoint and Google Drive.
Autodesk Construction Cloud
Autodesk Construction Cloud is a comprehensive suite of construction management software that connects workflows, teams, and data across every phase of a construction project. Designed to improve collaboration, it integrates various tools for project management, design, planning, and field execution, enabling seamless data exchange and real-time communication among stakeholders.
The platform enhances efficiency by providing centralized access to critical project information, reducing errors, and improving decision-making. With features like document management, cost control, and safety compliance, Autodesk Construction Cloud helps construction teams deliver projects on time and within budget, while also improving quality and safety outcomes.
In a 1:1 relationship between Civil Tracker Projects and Autodesk Construction Cloud project simply use the Autodesk Construction Cloud project URL and paste it into Civil Tracker.
SharePoint
SharePoint is often used for document management on construction projects by providing a centralized, secure platform for storing, organizing, and sharing project-related documents. It enables teams to collaborate in real time, ensuring that everyone has access to the latest versions of plans, contracts, and reports. With robust version control, permission settings, and search capabilities, SharePoint helps prevent miscommunication and ensures that critical documents are easily accessible and protected.
Google Drive
If you’re not using SharePoint, then there’s a good chance you’re on Google Workspace. Google Drive is widely used for collaborative project management by providing a cloud-based platform where team members can store, share, and collaborate on files in real-time. With tools like Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, teams can work together simultaneously on documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, making it easy to track changes, leave comments, and ensure everyone is aligned. This flexibility and ease of use make it an essential tool for managing projects in a collaborative and efficient manner.
It makes decision making easier for businesses when all their data is in one spot and linked to projects.
