Rich functionality

To meet file sharing and collaboration requirements, the iExtranet Building & Construction solution contains all the essential features for managing a construction project in one simple, user-friendly web interface:

Designs viewer

With its AutoCAD viewer, iExtranet Building & Construction offers a design showcase enabling you to preview designs online in their commonly-used formats (.dwg, .dwf, .dxf) without having to install software. This viewer offers a range of features for producing and managing designs, such as distance measurement and the integration of comments via the "Markup" system.

With this designs viewer, you can view, measure and comment on a design online, without necessarily downloading it first.

High level of traceability

iExtranet Building & Construction includes tools to ensure full traceability of emails sent as well as of shared documents: which design from the design viewer was sent, to whom and when? Who amended the last report? The information is accessible via the platform or by email alert.

Managing versions in the designs viewer

As soon as a design has been updated by the architect or design consultant, the previous version of the design is archived and accessible at any time in the iExtranet Building & Construction designs viewer. 10 versions of the same document can be stored in the designs viewer.

Automatic notification

To ensure, for example, that a design consultant does not waste any time working on a version of the design that has not been updated, iExtranet Building & Construction has an automatic email notification system. The design consultant is immediately notified of the latest changes made by the architect to the files in the designs viewer: the information is relayed automatically

Memo system

It is no longer necessary to send multiple emails in order to forward comments regarding the latest designs or reports in the designs viewer. With the memo system included in iExtranet Building & Construction, architects and design consultants can create "mini discussion forums" regarding the designs or reports in the designs viewer and add their comments directly to the documents.

Optimised access management

With iExtranet BTP, the business manager can determine each contact person's access to the relevant files or folders. This system ensures confidentiality of information on site.
