SUMMARY:Standardized Construction Control Processes for Bluebeam (4 Sessions)
DESCRIPTION:We’ve all heard that Bluebeam Revu is the ideal solution to set up and control all your construction projects\, but often times we don’t know how to begin that vital process. Wouldn’t it be nice to set up graphic dashboards where you can open a site plan and just click on a location to open all the specs\, drawings\, bids\, and other relevant documents for your job? How about tracking field issues\, creating RFIs\, and even tracking the current status of any project issues you have\, all in Bluebeam Revu?

Bluebeam is designed for the construction industry\, but all too often the people it’s meant for don’t even understand what Bluebeam can do in the construction world. With Bluebeam Revu\, you can create as-builts\, directly modify PDFs\, define phases/zones\, link to details\, compare differences between documents\, even overlay PDFs to look for system conflicts\, and much more. This class is focused entirely on the tools and features that will provide the most benefit to people working construction projects in Bluebeam Revu. \nZenTek Consultants\, the nation’s premiere Bluebeam Partner\, will show you the most effective means of using Revu for Construction work so you can get the efficiency and intelligence you need from Revu.
