Engineering Document Management System (EDMS) for EPC Projects

Manage engineering drawings, workflows, approvals, and compliance documents with real-time visibility and zero errors—purpose-built for EPC projects.

Trusted by EPC contractors, Owner-Operators, and Engineering Design & Consulting Firms across Industries.

Why Traditional Document Control Fails in Complex EPC Projects

  • Document versions, transmittals, and approvals remain scattered and slow.
  • Progress tracking is manual — leading to inaccurate dashboards and late reporting.
  • Schedules slip because downstream activities aren’t updated automatically.
  • Contractors, vendors, and engineering teams use disconnected tools.
  • Master deliverables are difficult to track, forecast, and control in real time.

SmartProject EDMS solves this with end-to-end document control + integrated project progress tracking — in one unified system.

A Cloud-Based Engineering Document Management System Designed for EPC Complexity

Wrench SmartProject EDMS is a cloud-native Engineering Document Management System that also functions as a project-wide Common Data Environment (CDE)—centralizing drawings, BIM models, specifications, transmittals, and vendor submissions into one secure, audit-ready platform. Purpose-built for EPC and capital projects, SmartProject eliminates version conflicts and supports true concurrent engineering, ensuring every stakeholder works from the latest approved information.

Engineered for field-to-office collaboration, SmartProject enables mobile data capture, markups, redlines, and automated transmittals, giving teams real-time visibility from jobsite to head office. The platform integrates seamlessly with CAD/BIM viewers, scheduling tools like Primavera and MS Project, ERP systems such as SAP and Oracle, and drone/mobile inputs—providing a single source of truth across the project lifecycle.

Beyond traditional DMS capabilities, EDMS introduces advanced project controls such as Master Document List (MDL) automation, WBS-based progress calculation, rule-of-credit monitoring, multi-baseline comparison, and predictive scheduling — giving EPC teams a single, integrated environment to manage engineering deliverables and measure progress accurately.

With enterprise-grade security, role-based access, and complete audit trails, SmartProject ensures compliance and traceability for owner-operators, contractors, and project partners. Easy to deploy—typically in under four weeks—it provides EPC teams a fast, scalable, and industry-ready EDMS solution.

EDMS eGuide & Testimonial

EDMS and eDMS are both a kind of DMS, or document management system. They are also both digital, or electronic, in that the documents and data they deal with are digital computer files.

We have found it to be an excellent tool to maintain project documentation integrity, monitor workflows, provide project status in real-time.
