Newforma’s Project Information Management Software enables architects, engineers, contractors and owners to reduce time spent on administrative tasks, streamline project workflows and power real-time collaboration for project teams.
Newforma is generally used by our LAD employees although there is some use by LAN employees as well. Most of the detailed usage you will utilize will be explained in greater depth by your supervisor or colleagues.
Following will be a few screenshots and brief overview of the Newforma program’s main launch window.
Your supervisor will be responsible for setting up your access to the Newforma server, the All Projects tab will display all projects matching you profile. The My Projects tab will be set up by you. In the screenshot above you will see the Click to edit My Projects option. If you click this you receive the following popup window.
Once your profile has been created for you, the list of available projects will display in the left panel. You will be able to select the project/s you wish to display on the My Projects tab of the main window. Once you have selected the desired projects click on the Add option at the bottom left and the projects chosen will be displayed in the right panel. Click on the Save Changes option, the screen will close and Newforma will refresh the main window.
If, in the future, you wish to add or remove projects from the My Projects tab, simply scroll to the bottom of that tab and the Click to edit My Project option can be found. The second popup window will open and you can then either choose more projects to Add from the left panel, or choose projects to Remove from the right panel.
