One of the biggest challenges in the AEC industry is the fragmentation of project information across multiple tools. Construction professionals constantly juggle project data, documents, and communication across platforms, leading to inefficiencies, outdated information, and costly errors.
At zipBoard, we understand that Procore is the go-to platform for construction project management, but document reviews can still be time-consuming. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce the zipBoard + Procore integration—designed to enhance Procore document reviews, simplify Procore PDF markup, and improve Procore file collaboration across stakeholders.
zipBoard helps ensure seamless document review, feedback management, and task tracking within your Procore workflow.
Why Use zipBoard for Procore Document Reviews & PDF Markups?
Even though Procore offers some construction document collaboration features, zipBoard enhances these capabilities by providing an intuitive solution for reviewing PDFs in Procore, task management, and streamlined communication. With zipBoard’s Procore integration for document reviews, you can:
- Keep project documents and feedback consistent across tools – Ensure that all stakeholders are working with the latest versions of documents, reducing miscommunication and rework during Procore submittal reviews.
- Eliminate manual transfers of files and feedback between platforms – Save time by automatically syncing construction documents and feedback from Procore to zipBoard, minimizing errors caused by manual updates.
- Centralize communication and document reviews for improved efficiency – Consolidate project-related discussions, markups, and approvals in one place, eliminating scattered feedback across emails and chat tools.
- Enhance task management with visual Kanban boards and simplified tracking – Convert feedback into actionable tasks with a clear visual workflow, making it easier to track project progress and resolve issues efficiently.
- Seamlessly collaborate with internal and external stakeholders – Enable architects, engineers, contractors, and clients to review and provide feedback effortlessly, ensuring alignment across all project phases.
- Leverage AI-powered features for better organization – Automatically generate tags for files and tasks to categorize information, improving searchability and task prioritization.
💡 Rather than replacing Procore, zipBoard complements it by offering a dedicated document collaboration and document review workflow for construction documents.
By using zipBoard for Procore RFI reviews, document markups, and submittal reviews while keeping Procore for project management, your team can achieve the best of both worlds—without disrupting your existing workflows.
