PDS Modules |
Workflow
PlanWell PDS is an easy-to-use communication tool between
you and your reprographer that makes distributing plans and
specs to your project participants simple and fast. The interface
is based on simple checkboxes and drop down menus, with most
options for each function grouped on a single page. All you
need is a browser. No software, no hassles, and no usage fees
are necessary.
Security
While PlanWell PDS is easy-to-use, its security features rival
online banking. Your projects are protected with an encrypted
username and password that discourages even the most persistent
computer hackers. And your files are never actually on-line.
Lo-res thumbnail images are used for viewing, but print orders
are generated from hi-res files kept on a separate server.
Organization
Your projects are listed on a single page, and each set of
current project documents has its own "mini-Website"
within the system. Documents can be bundled together any way
you like, and each bundle is saved in case you want to order
it again. Contacts are listed by discipline and in alphabetical
order for easy access to contact or delivery information.
Production & Distribution
PlanWell PDS is all about making ordering and distributing
plans and specs easy. Basic production options for documents
can be set individually, or you can choose from preconfigured
methods based on cost or choice. Document sets and contacts
are listed on the same page so you can link a bundle of plans
to recipients with a few simple clicks of the mouse. Once
familiar with the system, you can skip steps to make ordering
faster, or you can dig into each order at any time to determine
who should be getting what, and when.
Online Viewing
The same high-quality viewer program used in other PlanWell
products is built into PlanWell PDS. Viewing tools offer you
the ability to review the smallest items on the drawing and
confirm information with a close look at the title block.
An interface built into the viewer allows you to zoom, pan,
order from, and page through a plan with a few simple and
familiar mouse clicks.
