Moseley Architects Simplifies Construction Administration With Newforma Connector for Procore

Moseley Architects provides professional architectural, engineering, and interior design services collaborating within a unified, multi-disciplinary studio setting. This approach results in integrated designs tailored to client needs and priorities. Moseley Architects employs 275 professionals across 8 office locations.

Over the past ten years, Patrick Covert, Direction of Information Technology for Moseley Architects, described the technology landscape as “the wild, wild west”.  There were a number of different construction administration solutions on the market, with contractors and owner teams each choosing their own solution. This required the Moseley Architects construction administration team to navigate this complex technology environment.

Over the past several years, there has been some consolidation on the contractor side with Procore’s construction administration software, however, Moseley Architects’ team still struggled with duplicate data entry.

Moseley Architects saw an increase in contractor teams who were using Procore as their primary construction administration system. Moseley Architects utilizes Newforma Project Center as their primary project information management system and wanted to streamline the exchange of submittal and RFI information between the two systems.

Moseley Architects also required their own documentation and records of the project, which required duplicate data entry. By implementing the Newforma Project Center Connector for Procore, an extra layer of complication was removed from the construction administration process. The firm’s team could continue to use their native tool, Project Center, for submittal and RFI processing while eliminating duplicate data entry from their construction administration workflow. The flow of submittal and RFI information between Procore and Project Center is now automated, no longer requiring manual data entry.

In addition to the reducing the amount of time spent on data entry, Moseley Architects also saved time by eliminating the need to train their new staff on the double entry process. Team members no longer needed to learn both the Procore and the Project Center interface.

By freeing up time spent uploading and downloading files between systems, the team was able to spend more time reviewing content. It also improved response times for the final review.

Moseley Architects currently has 28 projects using the Procore Connector processing over 3000 submittals; equating to a savings of 600 hours and $30,000 for the firm.
