CHICAGO, Oct. 21, 2014 /CNW/ -- Textura Corporation
(NYSE: TXTR), the leading provider of collaboration solutions for
the construction industry, announced that The Wieland-Davco
Corporation, an ISO 9001:2008 certified construction company with
national headquarters in Lansing,
Michigan, has streamlined their construction administration
process using Submittal Exchange on the majority of their projects
in the past 18 months.
Dan Jury, Project Manager,
Wieland-Davco said, "With Submittal Exchange we are able to get
things turned around a lot quicker during construction
administration. We saved time from mailing and shipping, but we
also saved a lot of time from automated reminders that prompt our
subcontractors to get their items uploaded and architects to review
and return their items as well. The reminders help keep the
administration process flowing so we spend less time waiting or
tracking down information we need." The Wieland-Davco
Corporation strives to meet customer needs by providing a variety
of services, including construction management, design/build,
general contracting, green buildings and site selection.
Submittal Exchange helps architects ensure their construction
projects stay on budget and on schedule by streamlining
communication and automating the approval process. Submittal
Exchange connects the entire project team, including architects,
engineers and contractors, in a secure, online system, providing
increased transparency, consistency and accountability, resulting
in fewer delays and lower project costs.
"This system is very easy to use for everyone on the team,
including those that may have less experience using technology,"
continued Jury. "Submittals, specs, drawings or any documents can
be quickly distributed improving communication and creating a more
collaborative project experience. Everything is considerably faster
than in the manual world."
"Wieland Davco used to manage their construction administration
through an internal process and primarily used email and paper
files," said Patrick Allin, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer, Textura Corporation. "Today they have
freed up time and saved everyone from frustration by no longer
having to spend time and resources for printing, shipping or
searching through inboxes."
"We've been able to customize Submittal Exchange to work with
our existing construction administration processes," said Jury. "We
didn't have to take the time to start all over and create new
processes, but rather enhanced our existing processes for the
better by using this system. In doing so we were able to save time
right away."
