Intro to Plans Management

Plans Management is the system used to organize, version, and track construction drawings within a project. It provides the structural foundation for takeoff and estimation workflows by managing drawing sheets across multiple revisions.

 
 

Workflow Integration Takeoff Integration

  • Revision sets define the scope for bid packages
  • Plans within revision sets become available for takeoff
  • Measurement system consistency between plans and takeoff

Bid Package Creation

  • Bid packages must reference a revision set
  • Copy selections are scoped by revision sets
  • Ensures takeoff work aligns with specific drawing versions

Document Management

  • Plans are linked to pages from uploaded PDFs
  • Supports virtual plans for complex or multi-sheet drawings
  • Maintains a direct connection between documents and structured plan data

Visual Status Indicators The plans grid visually indicates plan status:

  • New plans added in the current revision set
  • Plans inherited from previous revision sets
  • Plans replaced in the current revision set
  • Plans deleted in the current revision set
  • Plans not associated with the current revision set
