Any project, regardless of size and scope has associated documentation that needs to be referenced, reviewed, approved, tracked and archived. ImageTool for Primavera is specifically designed for Primavera users to help them manage project documentation.
A Complete Solution
Collaboration is only one part of managing your project documentation. While Primavera provides the ability to collaborate, it does not offer a scanning and archiving solution. By implementing ImageTool with Primavera, you will have a complete solution to manage all of your project documentation.
Depending on which Primavera product you are using, documents scanned with ImageTool are automatically linked to the appropriate activity ID or correspondence item. Documents can be converted to full text for building issues and keyword searches in the notes field. The ImageTool database provides the non-Primavera users within your organization access to these project documents. Users can search and retrieve documents by entering any combination of document attributes or performing a keyword search for words contained within the document. In order to expedite project documents throughout the organization, ImageTool statuses documents for data required and ball-in-court approvals, and utilizes your email for task notification.
Other benefits found in ImageTool Projects are the CD archive wizard, a very robust document scanning environment, and support for the web.

Company
The founders of PCF developed innovative software that reduced the workload of project planners, and allowed them for the first time to produce high quality graphical output from project management systems. Twenty five years on, our original product has evolved into a modular range of PC based graphical solutions designed to enhance the functionality and effectiveness of all types of planning environment, including those in areas other than project management – for example maintenance or manufacturing.
PCF has been an authorised Primavera Technology Partner since early 2003, and continually strives to ensure that its products interface seamlessly with Primavera.
QEI Exec
QEI Exec is a modular system for creating graphical solutions to a wide variety of problems. Applications include:
- Visualisation of key planning data as pictures, for use as management dashboards or stakeholder presentations
- Interactive “what-if” modelling, such as strategic resource planning
- Automated production of complex graphical reports, eliminating rekeying errors and reducing cycle times
QEI Exec is much more than a reporting tool - its unique ability to link dynamic graphics directly to project data provides senior project managers and business analysts with the means to develop visual solutions that provide a deep understanding of their Primavera data, to explore the consequences of alternative strategies and to present concise status information on complex projects in an easy to understand form.
LinearPlus
Many civil engineering projects take place in worksites with restricted access along an overall line of route. Such linear projects include:
- Highways
- Power Lines
- Railways
- Sea Defences
- Tunnels
- Waterways
- Pipelines
- Highrise Buildings
In this type of environment, planners must pay particular attention to the physical restrictions associated with the worksites in addition to the normal constraints imposed by activity sequencing and resource availabilities. Unfortunately, traditional planning tools based on Gantt charts cannot display where activities are taking place, nor do they take account of any location-related constraints when performing a time analysis. Time Chainage charts (also known as Time Distance or Time Location charts) were developed to resolve this problem.
LinearPlus is an entry-level product targeted specifically at the needs of organisations handling linear projects. Using the technology from our flagship product QEI Exec combined with years of experience serving the needs of engineering and planning professionals worldwide, LinearPlus offers users the following benefits:
- Significantly reduced time to produce chainage charts compared to manual or spreadsheet based methods
- Wizard driven data import and layout allows rapid production of chainage charts from plans held in Primavera and many other tools.
- Guaranteed correspondence with planning data.
- Fully interactive diagrams permit live “what-if” modelling using chainage data and export of changes back into planning system
- CAD or other graphics can be imported to provide mapping information alongside the diagrams.
