Recently updated and improved, Autodesk Buzzsaw Professional
has added new dashboard and reporting capabilities,
enhanced workflow rules, roles, and templates help team
leaders to identify and resolve issues and discrepancies
faster than ever, boosting productivity across teams
and the entire project portfolio.
Instant Access to critical information through
Project Dashboards
Executive-
and project- level dashboards enable managers and team
members to monitor progress and quickly identify potential
problems and discrepancies. In addition, activity
logs provide a complete listing of all site and project
activity, including who accessed what, and when.
Automatic notifications keep project team members informed
of important changes and updates.
Easily
Run a Variety of Reports
Autodesk
Buzzsaw Professional tracks and reports detailed information
on all users, folders, documents, logs, and forms within
a site. You can run reports across your entire
portfolio of projects, within individual projects, and
within individual logs to get through project tracking
and information on open or outstanding items and gain
clear visibility into schedules, budgets, and project
status.
Monitor
Ongoing Progress to Ensure Desired Results
Autodesk
Buzzsaw has more standard forms than ever before --
including RFI's, submittals, change order requests,
correspondence, daily reports, and meeting minutes.
New review and approval workflow features mean that
project managers can assign specific routing functions
to team members using timers, reminders, tracking, and
reporting features that are all built into the process.
Easily
Assign Action Items and Track Responsibility
With
Autodesk Buzzsaw Professional, team members can assign
action items and tasks to other individuals or groups.
Status is fully tracked in the centralized form log.
Use
your Own Processes and Workflow
Autodesk
Buzzsaw provides comprehensive control over workflow
rules, roles, and templates. Project managers
can now set specific routing rules by project role,
group, or individual team members.
Exert
Tighter Control Over Private and Team Discussions
Enhanced
threaded discussion capabilities make it easy to maintain
the confidentiality of internal communications with
design or construction teams by setting discussion threads
as open only to specific members.
Reuse
Valuable Project Data and Standard Project Templates
All
information on Autodesk Buzzsaw Professional forms can
be exported to standard CSV (comma separated value)
format for use with your internal systems. Plus,
you can easily archive all forms on a CD for storage.
In addition, the "cloning" feature enables
site and project administrators to copy a complete project--including
project folders, members, permissions, files, logs,
and workflow--and reuse it for another project on your
Autodesk Buzzsaw site. The administrator can even
choose to clone files with markups, discussions, and
comments intact.
Use
a Central Database for Team Coordination
All
project documents, including design drawings, RFI's,
submittals, and meeting minutes are centralized for
easy team access at any time.
Customize
Forms, Dashboards, and Reports
The
Autodesk Consulting team customizes forms, dashboards,
and reports to fit your company's needs. Forms
can be tailored to meet your specific needs, with customizable
fields, layouts, and document behaviors. Create
forms unique to your company's business processes.
Customized dashboards can include information integrated
from multiple sources, including action items, external
schedules, and project resources.
Generate
Custom Reports for Unique Requirements
Reports
can be fully customized and displayed to meet your specific
data-reporting requirements. If required, the
Autodesk Consulting team can create custom reports and
layouts.
