ARC Debuts Enhancements and New Features in SKYSITE(TM) Construction Document Management Platform

ARC's Cloud-Based Document Management Solution for Construction Projects Is Now Faster, Better, and More Agile Reflecting Customer Feedback


WALNUT CREEK, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 29, 2015) - ARC Document Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: ARC) ("ARC"), a leading document solutions provider for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, today announced an upgrade to SKYSITE™, its cloud-based, B2B, enterprise-level, document management and distribution solution for the construction industry. Enhancements include a more responsive and dynamic viewer with faster load times, new hyperlinking capabilities that make navigation quicker and easier within digital document sets, and improved capabilities for distributing digital documents with markups to construction team members.

"We are continually innovating around customer needs," said Dilo Wijesuriya, Chief Operating Officer of ARC Document Solutions. "Our latest updates make it easier and faster for our customers to view and navigate through hundreds or even thousands of documents, synchronize them in real-time, and enable superior communication and collaboration with improved mark-up capabilities. With SKYSITE, our customers will be able to get more work done and be more efficient while doing it."

Several months of collaboration with customers, partners, and industry experts led to the following enhancements to SKYSITE's performance and usability:

  • Tile-Based Viewer: SKYSITE's improved viewer is faster and provides crystal clear, high definition views of drawings and easier document navigation.
  • Hyperlinking Enabled: SKYSITE seamlessly supports hyperlinks on tablets and desktops, maintaining the integrity of hyperlinks from user to user, and from platform to platform. Pre-existing hyperlinks created in other markup software remain functional in the SKYSITE cloud, and across various devices allowing customers to use different software tools interchangeably.
  • Hyperlinking Creation: Hyperlinks can be created directly in the SKYSITE mobile and cloud applications.
  • Markup Downloads: Mark-ups are available upon their creation in real-time. Users can download documents along with all markups directly from the viewer. This facilitates real-time communication between the project site, designers and the construction managers.
  • Faster Search: Document searches are quicker and more precise with filters including projects, folders, files, and even document metadata.

"We are pleased with SKYSITE's increased functionality," said Sheldon Oxner, CEO, National Commercial Builders of Lenexa, KS, "The syncing between devices, the faster load times, the increased search capabilities and document hyperlinking have been very beneficial to our productivity. ARC has done a great job of responding to the evolving needs of the construction industry."
