The pace of change in the engineering and construction sector might be unpredictable at times, but managing E&C projects around the world doesn’t need to be.

 

For almost 20 years, QA Software has been at the forefront of the Engineering and Construction Industry with co-founders Russell Mortimer and Steven Joustra shaping the evolution of their Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions and developing them in partnership with clients around the globe.

 

The E&C sector is a continually changing and evolving landscape – but with the right tools, all projects – large and small – can run smoothly and efficiently.

 

The combined experience of QA Software’s Mr Mortimer (CEO) and Mr Joustra (General Manager) covers 40 years as engineers.

 

The duo has no illusions of the challenges the sector faces each day and works with thousands of global customers from major infrastructure, commercial, building, oil and gas, mining and construction projects to assist them with the offer of improved solutions for knowledge management.

 

Mr Mortimer says the life-blood of any major project is the flow of documents ensuring that a centralised document management platform is in place for access and sharing by many parties.

 

“A billion dollar project will produce approximately 200,000 documents that will be accessed by about 50 different organisations over the life of the project. The exchange and flow of documents between organisations is critical for work to proceed efficiently.
Streamlining the flow will undoubtedly increase productivity and profit margins,” said Mr Mortimer.

 

QA Software is an Australian-owned and managed business, servicing projects all across the globe, particularly in key growth hubs in the UK, Middle East and Asia.

 

QA Software’s leading product is TeamBinder – its flagship web-based project document management and collaboration system – which helps manage, store and distribute information in the form of controlled documents and contractual correspondence.

 

The full range of products accommodate the needs of all projects, large or small, providing collaborative (web-based) and in-house (LAN-based) solutions.

 

Testament to the product quality offered by QA Software, and its reputation for stealth in financial management as well as its guarantee in ensuring the secure storage of confidential data, is the business’s stable of clients – both corporate and government – which include Origin Energy, Abigroup, UGL and Transport for NSW in Australia and Petro Chem Corporation, Eichleay Industries Inc. and GE Water and technology industries in North America.

 

The Australian-owned and managed company has more than 18 consecutive years of profitability.

 

“We are confident of our financial management. In addition, constant engagement with clients has meant the evolution of a business model that continually improves our strengths,” Mr Mortimer said.

 

“For our part we provide leading-edge solutions to the engineering and construction industry that enable clear visibility of any project portfolio through enhanced communication and auditability.”

 

From Kazakhstan to Adelaide, Ontario to Cairns, QA Software has a track record of successful implementations across the globe and is confidently poised to deliver on any project from its offices in Australia, the UK, USA and Sri Lanka.

 

“Innovation, implementation and service will continue to drive the industry over the coming years,” Mr Mortimer said.

 

“Organisations that do not evolve with and adopt new technology, will not survive in this competitive environment. Project collaboration with centralised document control is here to stay.” ■
