LAS VEGAS, NV (Autodesk University), Dec 2, 2015 – Peer Software, the leading developer of file management solutions for branch office environments, and Newforma, a project information management (PIM) software company transforming building and infrastructure project delivery, today announced they have formed a strategic alliance to further enhance team collaboration for AECO organizations with multiple branch office and project partner locations.
“An explosion in project information, especially large BIM models and sheet sets of hundreds (sometimes thousands) of drawings, has created numerous collaboration challenges for AEC firms,” said Newforma chief executive officer Ian Howell. “This is especially demanding for geographically dispersed project teams and their partners. Peer Software has a software-only solution for securely sharing files across remote locations, and we have customers using both solutions to great effect.”
“We are excited to expand our relationship with Newforma for the benefit of our joint customers. Our customers already use Newforma Project Center to manage project information, enable fast comprehensive search, and build workflows for design review,” stated Peer CEO Jimmy Tam. “Peer Software’s PeerLink file sharing and collaboration software ensures that all project files managed by Project Center are replicated across the distributed team so that all end users have fast access to their shared CAD and BIM models.”
“As strategic alliance members,” Tam adds, “we will explore how we can develop enhanced capabilities that meet the increasingly sophisticated needs for information management and data sharing across a global network of offices and partners.”
