Introduction
Astrea is a document quality management tool that is aimed at standardising and expediating the quality checking of structured, standard layout Portable Document Format (.pdf) files found in various industries.
Examples of these files are:
- Drawings (redline, shop drawings, design drawings, etc)
- Submittals, Material Approval Requests, etc
- Comissioning scripts, testinging documentation, reports, etc.
- Reports, frontsheets, etc.
Where the documetation has a standard layout and format, 'Astrea' can extract and validate data for huge numbers of files in seconds, generating reports and saving potentially thousands of hours* over the course of a project.
Astrea provides the following benefits for information management and project management teams in projects:
- Significantly less time spent on manual review of thousands of files over numerous revisions.
- 100% check coverage of every file in a project, ensuring maximum quality.
- Common issues that are often missed are captured such as layour errors, missing values, double text, etc.
- Reduction in total scope cost for projects, meaning leaner, more competitive bids.
- Fully re-usable templates that can be shared.
- Full reporting for errors found in each run.
- Full access to both the data extracted and the report data in open formats.
Our goal with astrea was to provide a simple, effective method for quality checking final deliverable documentation that focused on high user-friendly setup and high re-usability.
