SmartUse is a collaborative construction app for marking-up and sharing blueprints and documents in real-time hosted on Microsoft Azure. It enables fields team members and professionals to connect and work simultaneously on the most current plans and documents version. Go paperless from the bidding to construction phase to reduce costs and rework while improving productivity to guarantee your project’s success.
Document Management
Project blueprints and documents are uploaded on the Azure blob storage and rasterized through batch processing, enhancing performance and optimizing the mobile viewing experience. With our versioning system, we keep all app users on the current set; reducing rework and errors.
Open, Pan and Zoom Quickly
Manipulate multiples documents more efficiently than possible with paper plans. View as thumbnails or expand to full size.
Work Intuitively
Be productive from the outset. Unlike complicated software, SmartUse is touch-simple, as you’d expect from an app. Organize your day by creating your own set of plans using the Favorites feature.
Collaborate Live
Collaborate in real-time with your team from anywhere. Instantly share new revisions, RFIs, markups, and photos.
Detail Callouts Hyperlinks
For all drawing sets uploaded on Azure and through batch processing, our algorithm will analyze each sheet using OCR technology and will store all detail callouts in SQL Azure. Then on the fly, our app will create the hyperlinks and show it for every matching target sheet it finds.
Markups
Available markup tools enable the users to annotate sheets to identify potential problems. Take pictures to track construction site progress. Add hyperlinks to reference any specifications, RFIs’, etc. to your plan. These can be shared to specific team members or kept completely private.
Issue Tracking
Track deficiencies with our easy to use workflow. From the App, submit, assign and resolve issues quickly. As the reporter or assignee, be immediately notified via email of status change to effectively manage deficiencies. Export issues and create detailed reports to track project progress.
Compare Sheets
Compare revisions side-by-side and see differences. Detect clashes by overlaying plans from multiple trades.
