Document Management: Complete Document Control.

One version of the truth. All documentation in one place, fully version controlled using 4Projects collaboration software.

The 4Projects collaboration software is rich in features, yet simple to use for all projects.  Our collaboration software facilitates best practice in document management ensuring revision control, a full audit trail and compliance. Use it for your project extranet, standards library, health & safety system or shared drive. Manage documents such as contracts, specifications, schedules, reports, method statements, gantt charts, BIM data , IPD, or any electronic file.

Simple to deploy, access and customise. Create your own folder hierarchy to store and share documents. Any document format can be stored in the folder hierachy, including Office files, traditional CAD files, BIM files and emails.

By default users will only ever be looking at latest versions of files, though previous revisions are always available with a full access audit trail.

Searching for files includes 'meta-data' searches and powerful 'indexed' searching ensuring files are not lost deep within a folder structure.

Batch operations such as multiple upload, download and batch-printing are available across all folders. Integration with Evernote to provide ability to upload mobile content directly to 4Projects.

  • Each document folder can have it's own unique email address
  • Each folder can have specific, individual access permissions
  • Folders can, if required, be 'made public' for ease of sharing
  • Online management of documents, photos, video and other files.
  • Customise to suit your project, portfolio or organisation. 
  • Work with templates or create your own structure.

  • Accept webcam images via API or by folder email address.
  • Multiple upload and download features.
  • Permissions allows management of who has access to view and edit files.
  • Server creates small thumbnails for fast searching and paging.
  • Approval of photograph and imagery can be controlled via workflow. 
  • Audit trail means you retain full visibility, mitigate risk and ensure compliance.
  • Support capture of images from external services such as http://harriereye.com/

Workflow adds powerful 'electronic signature' approval capability. Folders in 4Projects can be confugured subject to workflow, such that user's uploads are intercepted triggering an approval or sign-off by 'panels' of voters. Files uploaded can be hidden from general view until processes have been fully completed.

  • Workflow triggered by any upload route (eg., web upload, 4Outlook, 4Explorer, email).
  • Multiple nodes support simple or complex decision processes.
  • Advanced visual workflow designer with no plugin required - works in web browser.
  • Highly configurable.
  • Searching and reporting by Workflow status.
