Existing Market Challenges

• Design firms and O/O need to mitigate risks– Not meeting contractual obligations (content, time)– Unable to prove delivery of information

• Execs and PMs lack visibility of project status– Unable to easily determine status of deliverables and review processes

• Deliverables preparation/delivery & review/comment cycles are too long and human resource intensive– Current process are time consuming, manual and error prone (create,

send, track)– Significant document control staff(and others) required to maintain

process
