The Single Source for Project Knowledge Management

Reduce risk, improve your bottom line

The world’s most intuitive project collaboration platform, TeamBinder from QA Software, facilitates the storage and distribution of project information across multiple parties within a controlled and secure environment. Such streamlining of communication and processes enables fast, informed and good decision-making with project teams achieving on-time and on-budget project delivery. TeamBinder leads to a direct increase in productivity with reduced risk in legal claims, simplifying dispute resolution and saving considerable time and money. The use of streamlined and consistent controls leads to increased productivity, better risk management, and stringent adoption of safety and OH&S practices. From Nigeria to Far North Queensland, Dallas to Kazakhstan, TeamBinder helps to meet ISO certification including ISO 9001/9002, demonstrated through an audit trail of correspondence and document distribution – all of which improves efficiency in locating documents, reduces the cost of administering projects and provides peace-of-mind through increased certainty and risk management.

With built-in Best Practice for Document Control, TeamBinder has in-built functionality to manage disciplines, project areas and work packages to enable the sharing and organising of documents to suit industry needs. Unlike internal systems and other generic shared systems, TeamBinder is tailored to drive real-time collaboration for teams and organisations in the E&C industry.

Designed to enhance the flow of information on a project through the use of a browser interface, document management and integrated reporting, TeamBinder delivers online collaboration to take you from the desktop to your mobile device with a highly customisable interface, powerful functionality and integrated reporting enhancing the user experience and encouraging the adoption of best practice to deliver the project control you need.

From concept design to handover and beyond – For every stage of your project For the entire lifecycle of the project - from concept design to handover; operation and maintenance, TeamBinder gives you improved, consistent control over project performance capturing the team’s views to help you make informed and expeditious decisions.

Prior to documents being accepted into the Document Register they are automatically validated to ensure that:

the uploading company is authorised to upload documents

all key document attributes are populated

the revision has been incremented. TeamBinder’s validation engine ensures high quality information reaches the project document register without the need for human intervention – an automated process saving time and reducing the workload for any project document controller.

Going wherever you go - We have you covered with desktop and mobile solutions Immediate access to critical project information is essential to keep projects on time and on budget. The TeamBinder mobile applications put this information at the fingertips of the whole project team. Whether it is capturing images and live information from the project site, or relaying it to the executive team on the move, TeamBinder now shares the same intuitive interface that has made it a 1st choice for so many projects around the world today. TeamBinder’s mobile solutions make it possible for project construction staff moving around sites to freely access their documents and zoom in on the details. So, whatever your mobile device, TeamBinder is the Single Source for Project Knowledge Management.

More than just an Application –

It comes with our guaranteed service and counsel The design principles of TeamBinder as a document control solution have earned it a reputation as an industry leader. The latest release of TeamBinder has provided a product that not only has exceptional performance, but also the most intuitive and user-friendly interface available today.

Access to documents anywhere, anytime.

Security that is reliable – Without compromising access Running a web-based system can raise security concerns: TeamBinder is based on secure and trustworthy technology and data storage with stringent security protocols. This is further evidenced by Level 3 Certification for Department of Defence projects. Your valuable project data is stored at an IOS27001 certified data centre, with dual-redundancy configured RAID and secondary automated back-up. Access to the TeamBinder system is protected through the use of passwords and “Strong 128 bit Encryption” or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) which encrypt information sent between the end user’s browser and the data servers/ Encryption in addition to usernames and passwords ensures the confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of the transmission.

TeamBinder - Integrating all aspects of your project

With flexibility at its core, integration with TeamBinder is a key strength allowing you to bring documents into a controlled environment while project teams continue using other systems. Streamlined processes avoid double handling of data and expensive third-party development costs, often needed with other systems. Integrate with familiar Microsoft Products As a Microsoft Gold Application Development Partner, intuitive and powerful integration through the Microsoft Office suite as well as Outlook and SharePoint, provide enormous efficiency gains for all project team members.

Upload Documents, Drawings and Models TeamBinder Integration – available for the full Microsoft Office Suite and other tools including Revit, and Microstation – make it easy for everyone to get documents, drawings and models onto the platform. XL Upload Upload thousands of documents, with ease and simplicity. TeamBinder’s Microsoft Excel add-on has earned a worthy reputation amongst document controllers worldwide. In a completely integrated solution XL Upload enables the extraction of meta data, validation and upload of drawings and documents in bulk. Manage Correspondence Receive TeamBinder correspondence and reply directly from any email service. TeamBinder Integration for Microsoft Outlook provides a powerful and convenient way for your project team to create, add attachments, receive, manage and store TeamBinder correspondence within project folders in a very familiar Microsoft environment. Every item you create, receive and respond to, is synchronised in TeamBinder, maintaining your audit trail at all times. You can also simply drag and drop correspondence received in Outlook to capture it in your TeamBinder project. Control without compromise.

Controlled and Synchronised Records Management TeamBinder works in perfect partnership with other document and records management solutions, with the use of meta data mapping. Our solution to integrate and instantly synchronise documents across registers is available for Microsoft SharePoint and can be deployed for other software tools including TRIM and Objective. Class Leading Software Architecture To achieve powerful integration, TeamBinder utilises a compelling Application Programming Interface (API), made possible by the sophisticated, class leading .NET architecture and SQL database structure. API is the connecting interface between TeamBinder and the software that must be synchronised or ‘communicated’ with TeamBinder. TeamBinder fully complies with the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) design where all the functionality of TeamBinder is available via a standard web services API interface. TeamBinder, Tailored to Fit For customised TeamBinder API solutions, our development experts can develop tailored interfaces. All customised TeamBinder API solutions are fully documented, helping to form the best possible support library available and providing reference material for further development, compliance auditing or future training. TeamBinder and BIM BIM is changing the way teams collaborate through the life of a project. With TeamBinder’s BIM package teams can easily review, mark up, link documents and raise linked correspondence directly from the model. By working with BIM in TeamBinder project teams gain all the benefits of our renowned highest standards in Document Control while making the latest developments in building information modelling available to all parties on the project..
