“We are very pleased that EBMUD has chosen EADOC. It was a highly competitive situation and we were up against major players in the field. The decision demonstrates the growing need for truly collaborative solutions in the construction industry,” says Founder/CEO Eric Law of EADOC. “We are seeing an increased demand for collaborative project management applications that deliver real and immediate cost savings, especially from municipalities and engineering firms.”

Washington, D.C. – July 20, 2010 – The American Institute of Architects (AIA) and EADOC LLC, the provider of the EADOC web-based project management application for the construction industry, today announced the integration of two select AIA Contract Documents into the EADOC application, giving easy access to AIA payment forms to owners and construction managers. These two forms, G702™–1992, Application and Certificate for Payment, and G703™–1992, Continuation Sheet, are two of the most heavily used AIA forms in the industry. This marks the AIA’s most recent effort to integrate AIA Contract Documents into a construction and project management system.

EADOC users can now easily share AIA’s G702 and G703 payment forms with other project team members through the software application. The application provides the content and tools necessary to streamline workflows and save time. It automatically populates forms with project data, tracks multiple payments by period relative to budget and eliminates the need to enter duplicate payment information into two systems, reducing the chance of error.

“We are eager to expand our customer’s access to and use of digital documents. The EADOC application provides our customers with access to our payment forms when they need them, where they need them,” said Molly Lindblom, Managing Director of AIA Contract Documents. “The partnership between EADOC and AIA is a great complement to the breadth of AIA contracts and forms that are available through AIA Contract Documents software.”

Eric Law, Founder and President of EADOC added, “Delivering AIA’s G702 and G703 through EADOC’s project management application makes it easier for clients to follow industry standards while reducing review time and waste associated with paper forms.”

“Utilizing the AIA G702 in EADOC for our monthly billings has greatly simplified the process as we are able to create, review, approve and distribute AIA pay applications electronically,” said David Heyde, Construction Manager of Mortenson Construction and an EADOC customer. “EADOC’s project management application combined with AIA’s payment forms has allowed me to focus my time on managing the project instead of pushing paperwork and filling out spreadsheets.”

Connecting the Construction Industry:

EADOC Advances Construction Management Software

OAKLAND, CA (March 1, 2007) – Before the recent Bay Area tech boom, entrepreneurs Eric Law and Arnout van Kuijk identified what lies at the heart of every new technology – a void in the marketplace and the innovative ideas to fill it. Law and Vankuijk founded EADOC, a Web-based project management software for the often tech-shy construction industry.

“The difference here is the open source technology behind EADOC. This is a true Web-based application, making it accessible on any browser or computer type. It’s easy-to-use, cost effective and customizable to any construction project, large or small,” said Law.

In an industry that wastes billions of dollars each year due to poor communication and delays, EADOC supplies convenient, real-time information to keep a project on track and on time. EADOC is automatically updated monthly and can tailor its application to meet the needs of its users, which include project owners, general contractors, architects, designers, inspectors, construction management firms and engineers.

On a recent City of Emeryville Public Works Department breakwater project, EADOC enhanced communication and overall efficiency. In only eight months, the project required driving hundreds of piles, pouring 720 feet of fishing pier and rebuilding a windsurf/kayak launching ramp. Maurice Kaufman, Emeryville’s senior civil engineer, said EADOC eliminated the paper trail that usually plagues public works projects.
“In the past, we’ve faxed or mailed or used FedEx overnight to communicate through huge documents, but with EADOC, everything is automatic,” explained Kaufman. “You can be at home and get right into the application.”

Having never used a product of its kind in his 17 years at the department, Kaufman called EADOC “intuitive.” He was also impressed by EADOC’s ability to handle the submittal process and memos flying back and forth through his City of Emeryville email account. Kaufman added, “Suddenly, you have an entire project at your fingertips.”
