RSSSoftware specialist 4019 Bentley Systems continues to develop its spread of technology solutions for the construction sector. Its latest acquisition is of the California-based provider of construction management cloud services, EADOC. This is being added into Bentley’s MANAGEservices portfolio and will help managers at engineering and construction management firms or infrastructure owners with capital projects to reduce risk and staff hours. It will also help improve information quality, and provide owners with real-time visibility into costs. The technology allows facility owners to increase their return on investment through faster project completion. Users can also monitor project financial performance more easily and maintain detailed construction records without administrative staff.

The EADOC technology streamlines construction management processes and allows professionals to to track project documentation. This can include design clarifications, inspectors’ daily reports, special inspections, memos, action items, deficiency items, and schedules. EADOC also helps to integrate project cost controls, including budget, funding sources, contracts, schedule of values, pay estimates, change requests, and change orders, with this project information. The solution is immediately accessible to the project team and provides fast access to documents and cost information. At the same time, it incorporates security features to make sure the right people have access to the right information.

The EADOC team will provide additional capabilities to help develop Bentley’s ProjectWise portfolio and allow more comprehensive project delivery. At the same time, the firm intends to extend EADOC’s information mobility, through Bentley mobile apps including Navigator Mobile and ProjectWise Worksite.

Benefits of the EADOC solution include improved accessibility by keeping construction projects up to date with real-time information, better accountability by providing faster return on investment and increased productivity by enabling time savings of up to 30%. Overall this technology offers better efficiency by reducing costs and improved risk mitigation by tracking and controlling risk to mitigate cost and schedule impacts.
