Case Study: McConnell achieves secure, compliant document management with Trimble Viewpoint For Projects

Mcconnell chooses Viewpoint for Projects to ensure effective document management

McConnell, a nearly 100-year-old refurbishment, retrofit, energy efficiency and maintenance contractor, needed a better way to manage documents as its projects grew in size and complexity. Its existing SharePoint-based approach struggled with external sharing, version control, and reliable storage, while Building Safety Act “golden thread” requirements increased the need for stronger document control. McConnell chose Trimble’s Viewpoint For Projects to replace the outdated system.

Trimble implemented Viewpoint For Projects as a construction-focused common data environment with custom workflows, version control, audit trails, and tailored access permissions. Trimble supported the rollout with training and implementation guidance, and McConnell reported very positive feedback from users, faster and simpler collaboration, and a major improvement in sharing files and working in live documents. The platform is now being used across the business on all new major projects, helping McConnell improve compliance, traceability, and efficiency.
