How the New agcXML Standards Can Save Your Firm Time and Money

On every construction project, challenges always exist with timely and accurate communication and collaboration among all project team members. When you get right down to it, an RFI is an RFI, yet every project team member, whether they are a contractor, designer, engineering firm, subcontractor, consultant or owner, has their own project management system, which makes sharing and exchanging information difficult.On every construction project, challenges always exist with timely and accurate communication and collaboration among all project team members. Recognizing this challenge, the Associated General Contractors of America, Inc., established the agcXML initiative to help bridge the gap between project team members by creating a common standard for sharing information among different systems. This initiative resulted in the creation of standards for the construction industry called agcXML.
