The Smarter Way for A&E Firms to Plan and Collaborate
Architects and engineers need more than static schedules—they need a dynamic, real-time platform for collaborative design planning. Touchplan empowers A&E firms with improved coordination, visibility, and workflow management to overcome project challenges, ensuring reliable schedules, fewer delays, and smoother execution from design through closeout.
Overcome A&E Project Complexities with Collaborative Digital Planning
A&E firms face tight deadlines, evolving design requirements, and multi-discipline coordination. Touchplan helps teams stay aligned and make informed decisions with real-time collaboration and data-driven insights. Touchplan allows A&E teams to:
- Define, sequence, and coordinate the many specialized tasks required to develop a detailed, accurate, and achievable design
- Optimize pre-construction planning by creating standardized workflows that incorporate constraint management, ensuring a structured and efficient design process
- Identify and resolve constraints early, preventing delays and reducing unexpected project bottlenecks
- Strengthen multidisciplinary coordination with a shared digital space for architects, engineers, and contractors
- Increase project visibility with live data tracking, improving decision-making, accountability, and the ability to proactively address risks
- Help construction teams adapt to design changes with real-time updates that integrate with project schedules without disrupting overall timelines
- Maintain planning continuity amid supply chain volatility and shifting client priorities
Why Collaborative Planning is Essential for A&E Teams
Design teams operate in dynamic environments shaped by continuous feedback, shifting regulations, and evolving goals. Without a flexible, transparent plan, agility is impossible.
That’s why top-performing A&E firms rely on Touchplan to:
- Lead with flexible plans that adapt to client and construction inputs
- Work backward from end goals to ensure design supports buildability and delivery
- Strengthen accountability across teams with clear ownership and visibility
- Hit design milestones that enable smoother, more predictable construction phases
A&E teams that use Touchplan report stronger coordination and increased confidence in meeting project goals.
