Document imaging software

Forefront Construction Suite uses a Google-like search capability in its Document Imaging module to help find documents instantly. Users can locate individual documents in their entire Forefront file system by entering any word or group of words. Forefront finds those words and lists each document that contains them, displayed by relevancy, and provides a link to open each one.

Estimating software

This software allows electrical and ABS contractors to analyze a given project's advancement by relating actual job-site progress to plans. In addition, the software produces a discrete “this-part-of-the-job-only” materials list. CAD estimating features let contracting companies focus on pieces of the project's drawings that correspond to current or past pieces of the project for which they wish to plan or analyze.
