How RedEye Transforms Engineering Document Management for Construction and Infrastructure

 

In the world of infrastructure, construction, and asset management, information is everything. And yet, many organizations continue to operate in the dark—digging through file drives, chasing down PDFs, and working from outdated engineering documents. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. 

 

But that’s exactly the problem. Disconnected document management isn’t just inefficient, it’s risky. Delays, rework, safety incidents, and compliance gaps often stem from one root cause: misinformation. 

 

That’s why so many forward-looking organizations are moving to Accruent RedEye—a modern, cloud-based Engineering Document Management System (EDMS) that turns chaos into clarity. 

 

The Hidden Risk That’s Hurting Your Bottom Line 

Let’s be honest. No one wakes up thinking, “Our document management system is putting us at risk.” But over time, the evidence builds: 

  • Teams waste hours searching for the latest version of a drawing 

  • Contractors work off outdated information 

  • Handover packages are incomplete 

  • Field crews don’t have access to approved schematics 

  • Regulatory audits turn into last-minute fire drills 

These aren’t minor inconveniences. They slow down progress. They cause rework. They increase liability. And they damage your credibility as a builder or operator. 

The good news? This is fixable. 

 

RedEye: A Better Way to Manage Your Engineering Documents 

RedEye isn’t just cloud storage. It’s a purpose-built EDMS for organizations managing complex infrastructure. It centralizes every version-controlled document, drawing, and data point in one secure, searchable platform—and gives everyone, from executives to field technicians, access to what they need.

 

With RedEye, you get: 

 

  • One source of truth for all engineering documentation 

  • Unlimited users (yes, unlimited) to support large project teams and contractors 

  • No need for CAD licenses—anyone can view and markup drawings 

  • Mobile access on iOS and Android for real-time updates in the field 

  • Customizable workflows that align with your QA, safety, and approval processes 

  • Powerful GIS integration for spatial document search 

  • ISO 27001-certified cloud infrastructure hosted securely in AWS 

Real-World Results, Not Just Features 

In our recent webinar, “Unlock the Power of RedEye for Construction & Infrastructure Management,” we walked through exactly how RedEye helps clients succeed. And the results were compelling: 

 

  • Reduced drawing search time from hours to seconds 

  • Faster project handovers thanks to automated approval workflows 

  • Improved safety by giving field workers immediate access to the most current information 

  • Complete traceability for compliance and regulatory audits 

  • Significant reductions in rework and lost productivity 

These aren’t minor gains—they represent a fundamental shift in how infrastructure is managed. 

Built for Leaders, Not Just Users 

While RedEye empowers every user across your organization, its real value shines at the leadership level. 

 

If you’re responsible for operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, or strategic growth, RedEye helps you: 

 

  • Reduce risk across projects and portfolios 

  • Deliver consistent outcomes across teams 

  • Minimize manual admin and duplication of effort 

  • Gain visibility into asset data for better decision-making 

  • Maintain audit-readiness without disrupting daily work 

And because it scales from single-site operators to multi-site, multi-disciplined enterprises, RedEye grows with you—not against you.
