The Building and Construction Industry is an ever-growing one. Supply and demand for building and construction – both private and public, residential and commercial – continue to boom.

While technologically advanced in building practices, the management of day-to-day operations still relies heavily on documentation. Managing a multitude of document processes has a direct impact on the efficiency of the business.
