Building & Construction Documents: Production Process

How do we create record documents?

Our standard construction record documentation service

Edocuments filter, write, and control the content placed into your documents. Final Project Documentation includes the textual based information plus all literature, specialist's information, test and commissioning data.

The manuals are generated in an electronic format for distribution via the Internet, CD / DVD, or paper.

Technical authors

From working drawings and the specification Edocuments technical authors can write system descriptions.

Document controllers

Edocuments document controllers can gather, check and verify all information upon your behalf from your sub-contractors, and suppliers.

Standard Process

A simple "job request form" details the information required by Edocuments from you.

Edocuments can offer a range of solutions, particularly the updating service or web access to the operating and maintenance manuals for the end users or maintenance departments.

We have successfully demonstrated this service to end user clients and would be more than happy to demonstrate these on behalf of your company.

Workflow

Our online document production software

Edocuments have developed software to save time and money in the production of collaborative documents. Using WorkFlow allows all parties to ensure that as-built record information is on-time for handover.
