Construction Document Management
Nobody builds from a superseded drawing again.
Drawings, models and documents with full revision control, approval workflows and distribution tracking. CAD, BIM and 60+ file types, every one connected to the packages, variations and valuations it affects.

Trusted by construction companies of every size, worldwide




























One controlled repository, and the current revision is always found first
Construction document management software stops teams building from superseded drawings by keeping every file in one controlled repository where the current revision is always the one people find. Archdesk holds drawings, contracts, permits and BIM models across 60+ file types, with automatic revision numbering, role-based access and approval workflows that keep distribution on the record.

Nobody builds from a superseded drawing
Every revision is numbered automatically with change history and user attribution, so the version site finds is the version in force.
Approvals and distribution on the record
Approval workflows with digital signatures and an audit trail of every access mean you can prove what was issued, approved and seen, and by whom.
Found in seconds, not on a laptop
Search filters by project, date and status, and reads the annotations inside CAD and BIM files, so the answer is in the repository, not in someone's inbox.
Documents that feed the money
Quantity takeoffs run straight from drawings and 3D models into bills of quantities and estimates, with work progress visible on the model.
Documents in the same system as the money
Drawings and models live in the platform that runs your packages, variations and valuations, so a new revision or approval shows up where the commercial team already works, not in a separate document silo.

Centralized Storage
Every drawing, contract and permit in one repository instead of five inboxes and a shared drive. Files stop going missing, and duplicates stop circulating.
Unlimited storage in a common data environment
Custom metadata fields for filing and retrieval
Cloud storage with automatic backup
Large-format drawings and 60+ file types

Version Control
Every edit becomes a numbered revision with a full history. The version people find is the version in force, and superseded drawings stay out of circulation.
Automatic revision numbering on every file
Change history with user attribution
Revisions tracked on drawings and specs
Current version always found first

Access Control
The right people see the right documents, and you can prove it. Permissions follow roles, and every access is on the record.
Role-based access for subcontractors
Secure sharing with external stakeholders
Digital signatures and approval workflows
Audit trail of every document access

Search Functionality
Find the document in seconds instead of phoning around. Search covers the whole repository, including the text inside CAD and BIM annotations.
Every document indexed and searchable
Filter by project, date and status
Search inside CAD and BIM annotations
One place to look for every file

3D BIM Support
BIM models live alongside the drawings they relate to, with quantity takeoff straight from the model. The bill of quantities comes from the geometry, not a retyped spreadsheet.
Direct integration with major BIM platforms
Automated quantity takeoff from 3D models
BoQ generation and cost estimates
Work progress visible in 3D

Quantity Takeoff
Measure quantities and price them directly from drawings and models. Fewer manual takeoffs, fewer errors carried into the estimate.
Quantities measured from 3D models
Automatic material calculations and pricing
Detailed quantity reports exported to Excel
Takeoff feeds the estimate directly

Compliance Tracking
Certificates and regulated documents watch themselves. Anything approaching expiry raises a flag before it holds up the job.
Automated compliance checking
Expiry notifications before documents lapse
Safety certification tracking
Templates for regulatory requirements
