Bentley’s MANAGEservices
offerings helps construction managers at engineering / construction management
firms and infrastructure owner organizations with capital projects to easily

professionals to track construction project documentation including design clarifications,
inspectors’ daily reports, special inspections, memos, action items, deficiency
items, and schedules. EADOC also uniquely integrates project cost

which is immediately accessible to the project team, provides fast access to
documents and cost information from virtually anywhere. At the same time, it
incorporates security features to make sure the right people have access to the
right information.
Bentley Systems senior vice president, construction and field, said, “We
welcome the EADOC team, including founder Eric Law, to Bentley. Eric’s
expertise will be invaluable as we advance ProjectWise
for more comprehensive project delivery. In parallel, we will be extending EADOC’s
information mobility, for instance, through Bentley mobile apps including Navigator Mobile
and ProjectWise Worksite.”
“As a former member of the Bentley Developer Network, our team is extremely pleased
to now be part of Bentley. Together we can take information mobility across
design and construction workflows, as well as into operations, to new levels
for small and large organizations alike.”
founded by Law in February of 2006. The idea for the EADOC construction
management solution came from Law’s experience working for a large contractor
on commercial and industrial projects as a project engineer.
include construction managers at:
firms – for example, Brown & Caldwell, Carollo Engineers, CH2M HILL, HDR,
HNTB, Jacobs Engineering, MWH Constructors, and Arcadis;
Bay Municipal Utility District; City of Bend, Oregon; Lee County, Florida;
Central Utah Water Conservancy District; and West Valley Mission Community
College District.
benefits of the EADOC solution include improved:
projects up to date with real-time information;
return on investment;
of up to 30 percent;
controlling risk to mitigate cost and schedule impacts.
Ron Perkins, construction services manager, HDR, said, “The more I know of the
risks coming up ahead of time, the more I can mitigate them. EADOC allows
you to take the output from those risk registers, with probability and cost,
and incorporate them into the cost module. You can identify the risk, identify
the probability, identify the potential cost, and that allows you to track
those costs – so that your client or the owner understands and knows what the
risks are and the potential costs.”

mechanical engineer, Brown & Caldwell, said, “I have worked with both
‘manually’ managed construction services, as well as competing project
management software, and EADOC is the first to reduce my ‘paper-pushing’
time to zero. Internet-based access to construction tasks (RFIs, submittals),
as well as the latest drawings and specs, saves me tremendous amounts of time
tracking down these resources and verifying they are the latest version. EADOC
is a great product.”
