Denaploy Manuals
High quality digital O&M manuals for the construction Industry
Construction is the ultimate collaborative endeavour and represents about £84bn pa of the UK economy. Bringing together the unique skills of many different suppliers from client inception to architectural design, to principle contractor and all their sub-contractors and then back to the client and their facilities management provider, involves very specific challenges in delivering quality documentation that captures all the detail and enables you to visualise the wood from the trees.
TheDevTeam has been working with DenaployManuals since 2005 developing a software platform that enables their dedicated team of document controllers to manage the GBytes of data and 100s of thousands of unique documents to meet really important time deadlines. Constant developments of the platform has enabled the business to grow over the years as a paper free environment that can manage the processes even during the trials of COVID lockdowns.
In the last 10 years the system has managed about £2.5bn of projects.
The most recent update is a unique data retrieval service called RiDR that enables a client to search for any word within any document within multiple manuals, and instantly enable the end user to retrieve that document whether it be a certificate, and drawing or a piece of product literature.
