ProjectReady, a prominent provider of collaborative project information management software for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, has unveiled a groundbreaking feature, ReadyConnect. This new tool is revolutionizing the way data, drawings, and files are managed across multiple platforms such as Autodesk Construction Cloud hubs, Procore companies, and SharePoint sites. ReadyConnect addresses a critical challenge in large-scale projects where multiple AEC firms maintain separate Common Data Environments (CDEs) but need to collaborate effectively, ensuring the latest and most accurate project content and data are used.

Shaili Modi-Oza, Head of Development, explains that ReadyConnect allows seamless synchronization of project information related to document control, including requests for information, change orders, submittals, and transmittals, between different platforms. It also enables content syncing from one SharePoint site to another within the same instance. Joe Giegerich, CEO of ProjectReady, emphasizes that this development is crucial for managing a project’s extended software ecosystem, a vital aspect of complex construction project delivery.

Giegerich highlights the importance of eliminating software silos in the AEC sector, stressing that successful project management goes beyond schedule maintenance. It requires architects, engineers, contractors, and vendors to have visibility and control over data spanning the project’s ecosystem, which often includes multiple CDEs and software used by various companies. ReadyConnect ensures that everyone works with the most current drawings and information, driving interoperability and process efficiency across platforms and stakeholders.

ProjectReady’s ReadyConnect marks an essential evolution of the Integrated Data Environment (IDE™), designed to provide a governed framework for collaborative project management. It helps reduce rework, errors, and risk while ensuring teams are productive and efficient in delivering projects on time and within budget. This tool is a game-changer for the AEC industry, simplifying project setup automation in M365, Autodesk, and Procore, and enhancing collaboration across multiple CDEs and stakeholders.
