Project Room for construction projects

As a central document platform (or "common data environment", CDE) for all parties involved in the construction project, a virtual project room enables cross-site and cross-company collaboration. All relevant plans, documents and other records can be viewed at any time, even on the move, by all those involved in the construction project, or updated if necessary. The project room ensures that the current version of a plan or document is always accessed and that there is no "version chaos".
