Additional Projets

Digital Jobsite™
PMA’s Digital Jobsite application is an innovative way to do work while on a project site, giving you the fastest, most reliable way to track and find information. Digital Jobsite consists of two Pocket PC applications, PMA Inspector Pro and PMA Scheduler, and can also run on a laptop or desktop. PMA has successfully used the Inspector Pro product for numerous types of field reports for the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department as well as for three projects for the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority.

Use your Pocket PC to complete daily reports and update Primavera schedules while in the field.
Build a reliable database of daily logs with photos so you can track your projects progress and/or disruption.
Synchronize your daily reports and schedules by wireless connection to a centralized database and print customized reports, with photos.
Use the Reference Linker™ tool to create an electronic "library" of regulatory codes that can be easily linked to individual questions and eliminate discrepancies.

Vela Systems
Vela Systems' mobile software streamlines and accelerates field administration processes in construction, capital projects, and capital equipment management. It is a robust, collaborative tool that consists of numerous modules: Field Report, Field Scheduler, Worklist/Punchlist (RFIs), Extra Work Order, Safety Inspection, Commissioning, Materials Tracker, and Owner Handover. This application runs on a Tablet PC, laptop, or desktop. Vela Systems provides views for owner, contractor, and architect, allowing users to focus on critical issues. Vela also allows users to view and mark up drawings in the field and attach those drawings with comments to an email. PMA successfully worked with Vela Systems’ software on the Marriott Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel project.

Save 5-10 hours per week per user by eliminating the need to retype field information (e.g., notes, schedule updates, punch lists, etc.).
Accelerate overall project delivery by 1-2 days per month by reducing communication delays between the field and project teams.
Capture the “Cost of Quality” by documenting incomplete and/or incorrect work, assigning corrective action costs, and immediately communicating the results.
Reduce overall project risk through an electronic paper trail of field information that demonstrates the “Duty of Care.”
Gain a competitive contractor advantage and differentiate services in the marketplace.
