Open Text Transmittal Management

Collaboration and control for capital project content

 

Benefits

  • Enhance collaboration among diverse groups and organizations

  • Increase productivity with rapid transmittal processing

  • Reduce risk with transparent processes, reporting and auditing

  • Consolidate information with other systems

 

A capital project involves the planning, engineering, procurement, construction and operation of predominantly large-scale buildings, plants, facilities and infrastructure. These projects are complex and regulated, and without proper management they can face spiraling costs to deliver on time and with full compliance.

Central to the problem is how ideas are shared. A transmittal is used to transfer the asset’s drawings, specifications, calculations and other information, usually for review, comment, or approval purposes. It is also an official business record, forming the basis for many contractual decisions and results, and even determining liability in some situations.

Without a way to control and audit the process of transmittal exchanges, projects can stall and risks can escalate as confusion mounts over who has been sent what version of a document, what has been approved, and how third parties have been involved in the process.

Open Text Transmittal Management (formerly Livelink ECM - Transmittal Management) helps standardize and secure a complete and transparent lifecycle for a capital project’s transmittals, from creation and review to compliant auditing and retention. The solution’s process automation can be optimized for different requirements to maximize productivity and reduce costs, and its integrated search and user-friendly reporting provide further transparency.
