The Challenge

What They Were Facing

Document Chaos

With 15 subcontractors and 8 consultants, document version control was a constant struggle. Teams were working from outdated drawings, leading to costly rework.

Communication Gaps

Information was siloed across different systems. Site teams didn't have real-time access to approved drawings and specifications.

Approval Bottlenecks

Manual approval processes were causing 2-3 week delays on critical submittals, impacting the construction schedule.

The Solution

How Arkan Helped

Centralized Document Hub

Arkan became the single source of truth for all project documents. OCR-powered drawing management automatically organized 50,000+ documents.

Mobile Site Access

Site teams got instant access to the latest drawings via tablets and smartphones, even in areas with poor connectivity.

Automated Workflows

Custom approval workflows reduced submittal cycle time from 3 weeks to 5 days, keeping the project on track.
