Purpose

Like the paper-based transmittals that traditionally accompany conventional AECO drawing submissions, transmittals in Project Center provide descriptive information about the documents being sent such as title, sender, purpose, and associated files. Use the Project Transmittals activity center to review project transmittals no matter where they originated. You can also send, receive and log transmittals and their associated contents from here. You can view and print each transmittal’s information from Project Center using its Transmittal Form.
