Causeway feature in Building magazine supplement on Collaborative Technology

Causeway are a founder member of the NCCTP - The Network for Construction Collaboration Technology Providers and Building magazine recently produced a supplement offering advice, case studies and features on collaboration technology. Causeway provided input into the features including how the technical standard for sharing project data between different collaborative systems has been developed to allow more openess for users in the industry.

Causeway also commented on the debate around hosted (sometimes referred to as an ASP Model) collborative software versus owning the solution - ie deploying it within your own business IT infrastructure. Causeway have experience in deploying both types of collaborative solutions and many customers have chosen to invest in the Causeway Enterprise Content Management (ECM) product to benefit from collaboration both internally across their business and then opening selected project information up securely to external supply chain partners for project collaboration. A further advantage on offer to ECM customers is the ability to bring project collaboration data back into their business for re-use once a project is completed.
