Drawing and document management have proved useful for project participants, helping reduce delays and stay on budget.
Result
ARGE and its partners handle the entire drawing approval process via individual workflows from Thinkproject. The Federal Railway Authority is integrated into the approval process with an interface and a qualified digital signature.
