Ponting Fitzgerald Architects is an architectural practice committed to delivering world-class architecture through design and service excellence. Masterspec sat down with PFA to learn more about their design process and understand how important creating workflow efficiencies were for them.
This successful group, based in New Zealand and America, have high standards, so it was imperative that they find a specification platform that could keep up to their level of quality. They also required a platform with time-saving features, accessible anywhere at any time, for their entire team. The system had to provide them a way to efficiently ensure quality, all the way through the project’s existence from beginning to end.
With these challenges, the obvious solution was Masterspec’s cloud-based specification platform. This allowed the team to login and collaborate no matter where they were located. PFA focused on saving time by using previous specification projects and Office Masters. “Starting off each project with an office template means that all the typical details are pre-loaded, this saves time and keeps it accurate.”
The fantastic results of PFA adopting these practices means the team have been able to reduce their practice risk. As Masterspec has eight different maintained libraries, updates to building codes and standards are seamlessly integrated into all projects and Office Masters by the practices design team. The maintained specifications, combined with a connection to drawings ensures PFA always deliver a quality project for their client.
