All of us at PlanGrid agree that the in-field use of 3D bim models is still a ways away, which is why our solution is focused on 2d drawings.

Basically, what we are trying to do to paper plans what HTML did to paper documents: Make them digital, make them linkable, make the centrally updatable. This should have been done years ago, but just like HTML had to wait for the personal computer, PlanGrid had to wait for the tablet.

Two of the four co-founders of PlanGrid were construction engineers, so we know how important usability is and have made it a major focus of what we've built. Please download it and give it a try, I'd like to hear what you think about it.

Who is responsible for creating the linkages within the plans?

How do you reconcile the differences between digital documents containing links and the sealed paper documents which normally are the basis for the construction contract?
