• Abstract:
  The goal of this research was to develop a project document management system capable of managing
  
  Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) Capital Road and Bridge Program. Primary targets of
  
  research and development included the system, contract design deliverables (plans, specs and estimates),
  
  digital signing, project submission, submittals, legacy archiving and a portal for construction inspection
  
  document management.
  
  The resulting implementation of the Cloud based ProjectWise (PW) Online from Bentley Systems Inc. has
  
  delivered CTDOT a robust project and asset document management system. The system is integrated with
  
  CTDOT authoritative project and asset tracking data to automate project and asset storage and security
  
  management. The Cloud solution offers easy secure access for Department’s one hundred plus Consultant
  
  Engineers and state forces. The hosting offered a tremendous cost savings of server, backup, disaster
  
  recovery and VPN acquisition and maintenance going forward. Contract plan sheets underwent a welcomed
  
  transformation from wet signed Mylar’s to a digitally signed PDF contract set. Major asset documents
  
  (Bridges and Traffic Signals) installed or rehabilitated within capital projects are managed through their unique
  
  ID’s tagged to the capital projects, eliminating the need to parse out the documents from the capital project.
  
  A Real Time Kinematics (RTK) system for GPS construction inspection allowed the digital design environment
  
  to justify 3D model deliverables. In addition, an open source Web-GIS was developed, which offers intuitive
  
  interactive maps with hyperlinking to project and asset documents. This integration includes active,
  
  completed and legacy project information.
