Overall Satisfaction with PlanGrid
Plangrid is used throughout our organization to share/maintain current project drawings and information between Field Superintendents and Project Managers. We also utilize it to communicate with Owners and Architects on various issues requiring field changes and use the iPad app to do pre-punchlist walk-throughs with subcontractors. It is a very effective tool to maintain accurate project records, and cut down on the expense of getting paper copies of updated drawings to the field. On the estimating/sales side of the organization, it's helpful in preconstruction bid work by giving quick, accurate take-offs that we can use to help qualify unit pricing from subcontractors. Lots of really great tools are built into the system.
- Quick, Accurate take-offs when qualifying pricing or tabulation of job takeoffs for reference in the field.
- Easy and quick sharing of information and revisions with field staff, as well as easy sharing of information with project owners and architects.
- Easy manipulation of the desktop and iPad versions of the software for field use and walkthroughs/punchlists.
- I personally haven't found any issues with the platform that causes any trouble, or that can't be learned/taught to field staff.
- Saved time and expense for distributing multiple paper copies of plans, revisions, and submittals.
- Improved coordination between field staff and management.
- Improved coordination between Contractor, subcontractors, owners, and architects.
