Many times in the course of a project, team members will want to know the steps that led to a design or construction decision. For example, a request for information may prompt a sketch that generates a supplemental instruction, which in turn leads to a change order proposal and a change order. Newforma Project Cloud allows users to connect and cross-reference these documents. Submittals, RFIs, meeting notes, addendums, CCDs – even your own document types – can be tied to any other document in the project.

Cross-referencing also helps new subcontractors quickly get up to speed. There is no need for them to rediscover issues and create redundant RFIs. A quick review of their division specs and references will provide a clear picture of project status.

Cross-referencing makes it easy to reach any document. Combined with Newforma Project Cloud’s date- and time-stamp feature, cross referencing helps resolve problems during and after the project.
