Skysite

Skysite, stylized as SKYSITE, is a document management platform designed for construction and facility owners and managers. The cloud-based drawing management and distribution software allows the management of documents related to construction projects. Skysite includes features like RFI, Punch List and photo management. Skysite’s track and report functionality is designed to prevent mistakes and delivery delays. The system can be accessed to generate reports for all documents that are shared with the team. The reports can also be deleted, downloaded, or marked up to increase employee accountability.

Once constructed, facility managers can use Skysite to store, access, distribute, and manage the documents related to the operations of the building. As-builts, O&Ms, warranties and more can be organized and searched. Skysite’s real-time synchronization of documents allows access to current information whenever and wherever needed from tablets and mobile devices. All the building’s information can be archived and searched with custom attributes, along with document retention to mitigate risk.
