"Assemble is a multi-faceted tool that can be used in so many different ways. If you are familiar with pivot tables in Excel, try to visualize Assemble as a pivot table in the 3D environment, it allows you to slice and dice the information however you want, and there is so much flexibility, and countless use cases."
"It blows my mind that we have actually performed this role for so many years without the instant and unfettered field access to all drawings, specifications, RFIs, and issues that PlanGrid provides."
"The most beneficial technology has to be able to provide collaboration. No one project is built by one person or one company."
“I could quickly photograph the exact window, socket outlet, floor area or the fixtures and fittings we needed to survey, link the photo to an exact location on the floor plan and add additional commentary where necessary. It helped me get through 60 apartments in one day.”
“We’re a three-team startup company, and now we are all saving time on projects by using the software.”
“For each revision, our team had to sift through the bulletins to find the changes, quantify the cost, work with the subcontractors to explain the changes and ensure nothing was missed.”
“It’s more efficient and makes [the inspector’s] job and the inspection process easier.”
“It was hard to keep up. With field notes in so many forms, there was no clear history or way to track changes that were made. We often juggle multiple projects so it was confusing and frustrating.”
“People just don’t know how powerful a tool PlanGrid is to use. The organization, communication, reliability and accountability. It’s just a powerful tool that allows us to do our job.”
“PlanGrid just kind of streamlines everything. Better communication and organization- it’s all right there. We’re giving the field the most up to date drawings and information possible.”
“We were sold a product which was meant to reduce the workarounds and make document control easier, but we found it too problematic, especially for the field.”
“PlanGrid’s ability to work with Jonas Premier was crucial. It gave us the ability to transfer data across both platforms.”
“The biggest issue with the paperbased system was the document management. You often ended up having the wrong document to hand and it was really challenging to make sure that everyone was building from the right index of a drawing. Digital drawings make it so much faster and easier to share updates with the team.”
“Our project managers were already familiar with lots of the functions on the platform. The overall ease of use gave them a high level of confidence and has helped them to embrace PlanGrid.”
“Being able to send photos to the drawing office team, plus document issues, assign and show the exact area to be repaired has made the team more productive as they say a picture is worth a thousand words and these automated words have been a huge productivity saver."
