We provide you with an integrated overall solution based on industry standards
With our UNITEC project and information portal, we enable system-independent and central data management of your planning results:
- Easily find, share and manage documents and information
- Manage communication with planning partners centrally
- Cross-manufacturer and interdisciplinary compilation of documents and information for control and sharing
- Document and track project progress and planning changes/history
- Reduce effort for proposal preparation through centralized data storage and automated workflow
The majority of programs rely on their own file format. This naturally makes data exchange more difficult, which is why there are approaches to standardization.
