Construction Software for Public Sector Projects

Q: What software do public sector professionals use for plan reviews, document management and digital collaboration?

Civil and public sector professionals around the world use Bluebeam Revu to mark up, measure and collaborate on PDF documents in real time with clients from anywhere. Revu offers customisable markup and measurement tools perfect for civil teams working on complex construction or infrastructure projects. Tools can be saved, reused or shared across teams and projects, ensuring efficient, standardised communication project after project. It also gives teams a centralised place in the cloud to store, manage and share project files, with time-saving automation tools for organisation and document comparison. Public sector teams can also easily access projects and edit or mark up anywhere – in the office or in the field – with Bluebeam Cloud, our cloud-based web and mobile platform that’s fully compatible with their Studio files from Revu.

Q: What are the best features to look for in civil or public sector software?

Civil and public sector professionals evaluating software for plan reviews, asset management, etc. generally look for solutions that allow them to save paper, speed up reviews and improve measurement accuracy. Bluebeam Revu gives civil teams smart, easy-to-use markup and measurement tools that they can customise, save and share with clients. Revu also features a built-in collaboration platform, Studio, which allows stakeholders to digitally mark up and review PDF drawings and documents together in real time from anywhere.
