NEWFORMA PROJECT ANALYZER
New product makes financial management practical
Newforma® Project Analyzer provides a graphic, interactive way for firm executives and project managers to manage finances and resources.

NEWFORMA IN THE NEWS
DesignIntelligence includes Newforma in top 5
In “Realities Are Transformed by Technology,” DesignIntelligence Founding Editor and Publisher James P. Cramer ranks Newforma fourth among providers of tools that make high performance possible. It’s just one finding in the latest DesignIntelligence survey on technology and innovation, packed with helpful information for firm leaders. Click here to see the full overview.
PIM FOR CONSTRUCTION
New Construction Solutions team focuses on builders
Because construction companies have different project information management needs than architecture and engineering firms, Newforma has created a dedicated Construction Solutions team. Team members are focusing on the needs of design-build firms, general contractors, construction managers and large specialty subcontractors. To read a customer comment and see who is on the team, read the Construction Solutions news release.
