Integrated project delivery demands more communication among external team members sooner in the project. But more communication means more email, and email, which was originally designed as an informal, individual means of communication, is ill-suited to the shared, process-driven needs of a project team.

Join us to explore how software for project information management (PIM) supports a more integrated practice through improved email management.



  • Explore how email’s origins as an informal, individual means of communication ill-suit it to the needs of a project team.

  • See why today’s paradigm for email management fails to support integrated project delivery.

  • Discover how a process approach to managing project email can enhance communication for the internal and external project team.

  • See how firms like yours are tackling out-of-control email to mitigate risk and improve integration among team members.

About our webinar series, "Project information management for integrated project delivery"

BIM technology is a well-acknowledged pillar of integrated practice for coordinating and documenting the building design. But what about all the unstructured project communications and adjunct decision-making processes that surround the model as it evolves over the duration of the project?

PIM technology is the complementary solution to BIM. It manages the information and communications around the model. It supports collaboration, accountability and trust – both inside the firm and between external team members.

Newforma’s webinar series draws on our experience helping customers manage information and communications for over 120,000 projects.Presented by:
