Organising, indexing, hyperlinking, and maintaining every document associated with a complex construction project is time-consuming, which leads many firms to stick with outdated and inefficient paper-based document management systems. It doesn’t matter how good you are; if your project information lives solely on paper, you’re losing time and money. ARC’s cloud-based linking solution saves you both and ensures that all your files are properly tagged, linked, and Organised for fast retrieval from any device with a single click.

In many cases, linking is an automated process that does not deliver the results you truly need. Files auto link to the incorrect documents, the wrong section of a document or don’t link at all. Some service providers’ solutions can only hyperlink PDF’s. We are different.
ARC not only provides industry-leading linking technology, but we also have experts on staff that dig deep into the documents, relating all your files and connecting layers of call-outs down to the nitty gritty details you require. Improve quality control and ensure information is put in its proper place.
Linked construction documents can turn a paper mess into an Organised index that is accessible at the click of a button. Instead of flipping through hundreds of plan sheets or a 6” thick binder, you can now get directly to the information you need in seconds instead of minutes or hours.
Watch Clark Construction’s testimonial video to discover how they used linking to work smarter and faster to save time but ultimately improve the outcome of their projects.
Most construction projects come with thousands of pages of documents, which means getting your hands on the exact information you need often includes searching through large volumes of hard copies until you find what you’re looking for. Countless hours are lost to rework when your team and your contractors aren’t working from the current set.
With construction documents that are digitised, indexed, and linked, navigating thousands of pages becomes the work of a few seconds, instead of hours, empowering everyone on your team to be more efficient.
Get to your project information in seconds with every document right at your fingertips.
Research shows that for every £1 million in value, the average project will have 15-20 RFI’s per day. The administrative and technical tasks required to review, research, and respond to just one RFI takes a combined eight hours of labour and bears an alarming £1000 price tag.
Lightning-fast search lets you navigate thousands of pages in seconds and drill down to related documents and drawings, so you never miss out on critical changes or details. The ARC team goes beyond the standard auto-linking process and digs into all of your documents to ensure that all of your layers and callouts are connected and appropriately indexed, so your searches return fast and accurate results.
What’s the point of digitizing and hyperlinking your files if accessing them is so cumbersome and complicated that nobody on your team can figure it out? ARC’s mobile dashboards offer intuitive, easy navigation that works with its users instead of against them. Search, select, expand, find callouts, drill down, and navigate through drawings and pages with ease, and without lengthy training sessions or single-purpose equipment.
Paper documents don’t allow for a central and navigable table of contents. Sadly, neither do many hyperlinking service providers. ARC works with you to set standards for your company to ensure consistency across your jobs. A custom index lets you tag, organize, and link all of your project documents, so they’re accessible not just through your customized digital document paths, but from a central table of contents, as well.
ARC’s construction document management system helps you gain the highest returns on your drawings, your skills, and your time. Every hour spent searching for drawings, responding to RFIs, or trudging to the trailer to check specs is an hour that you could be spending focused on what matters most to you and your business.
