Project Publisher Overview

Project Publisher enables you to package selected project documents to archive a project at defined milestones as well as publish a project (also known as project closeout or handover) to your clients at the end of the project. It enables you to select the information you’d like to publish (including record documents, submittals, change orders, and other project items), set the appearance of the information, and then publish the results as .PDF or .HTML files to an optical disk or network folder.

Project Publisher requires Newforma Contract Management licensing.

After publishing a project, you’ll have access to:

        A document made up of a title page and a table of contents, which acts as a directory to the information;

        Documentation files about the construction, operations, or maintenance of the building;

        A log of the final record documents, submittals, RFIs, change orders, etc. for the project along with associated files.

You can publish the following types of project data:

        Contract management items

        Daily reports

        Document sets

        Field notes

        Meeting minutes

        Models and elements

        Project team

        Punch lists

        Record documents

        Site visits

        Space items

Contract Management items include the final sent transmittal record copy files and can include the original received record copies as well.
