1. The first centralised and secure platform
for all Engineering and Construction
project information – pioneered in Australia
almost two decades ago – TeamBinder
stimulates project success through a
single source of truth. This is incorporated
within an intuitive, web-based project
document management and collaboration
system accessible by all project team
members any time and from anywhere.
The Single Source for Project Knowledge Management
2. Reduce risk, improve your bottom line
The world’s most intuitive project collaboration platform, TeamBinder from QA Software, facilitates the
storage and distribution of project information across multiple parties within a controlled and secure
environment. Such streamlining of communication and processes enables fast, informed and good
decision-making with project teams achieving on-time and on-budget project delivery.
TeamBinder leads to a direct increase in productivity with reduced risk in legal claims,
simplifying dispute resolution and saving considerable time and money.
The use of streamlined and consistent controls leads to increased productivity, better risk management,
and stringent adoption of safety and OH&S practices.
From Nigeria to Far North Queensland, Dallas to Kazakhstan, TeamBinder helps to meet ISO certification
including ISO 9001/9002, demonstrated through an audit trail of correspondence and document
distribution – all of which improves efficiency in locating documents, reduces the cost of administering
projects and provides peace-of-mind through increased certainty and risk management.
Providing secure and easy access to project information for all project teams, TeamBinder’s robust
architecture and powerful capability for document control contributes to corporate and project
governance for some of the world’s largest corporations and the most complex projects.

teams and organisations in the E&C industry.
Designed for the Industry –
Speaking your language
Designed by two engineers with a combined 40 years’
experience in the E&C industry, TeamBinder provides

numbering and distribution, TeamBinder can be configured
to suit your project.
Designed to enhance the flow of information on a project
through the use of a browser interface, document
management and integrated reporting, TeamBinder delivers
online collaboration to take you from the desktop to your
mobile device with a highly customisable interface, powerful
functionality and integrated reporting enhancing the user
experience and encouraging the adoption of best practice
to deliver the project control you need.
4. From concept design to handover and beyond –
For every stage of your project
For the entire lifecycle of the project - from concept design to handover; operation and maintenance,
TeamBinder gives you improved, consistent control over project performance capturing the team’s views
to help you make informed and expeditious decisions.
Prior to documents being accepted into the Document Register they are automatically
validated to ensure that:
the uploading company is authorised to upload documents
all key document attributes are populated
the revision has been incremented.
TeamBinder’s validation engine ensures high quality information reaches the project
document register without the need for human intervention – an automated process
saving time and reducing the workload for any project document controller.
5. Going wherever you go -
We have you covered
with desktop and mobile
solutions
Immediate access to critical project information is
essential to keep projects on time and on budget.
The TeamBinder mobile applications put this information
at the fingertips of the whole project team. Whether it is
capturing images and live information from the project
site, or relaying it to the executive team on the move,
TeamBinder now shares the same intuitive interface that
has made it a 1st choice for so many projects around
the world today.
TeamBinder’s mobile solutions make it possible for
project construction staff moving around sites to freely
access their documents and zoom in on the details.
So, whatever your mobile device, TeamBinder is the
Single Source for Project Knowledge Management.
More than just an Application –
It comes with our guaranteed
service and counsel
The design principles of TeamBinder as a document control
solution have earned it a reputation as an industry leader.

support (without outsourcing any key elements of our
product delivery) allowing us to continue to respond with
constant improvements and enhancements maintaining
pace with global trends and technical innovation.
Access to documents anywhere, anytime.
Security that is reliable –
Without compromising
access
Running a web-based system can raise security
concerns: TeamBinder is based on secure and
trustworthy technology and data storage with stringent
security protocols. This is further evidenced by Level 3
Certification for Department of Defence projects.
Your valuable project data is stored at an IOS27001
certified data centre, with dual-redundancy configured
RAID and secondary automated back-up.
Access to the TeamBinder system is protected through
the use of passwords and “Strong 128 bit Encryption” or
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) which encrypt information
sent between the end user’s browser and the data
servers/ Encryption in addition to usernames and
passwords ensures the confidentiality, integrity and
authenticity of the transmission.
6. TeamBinder -
Integrating all aspects of your project
With flexibility at its core, integration with TeamBinder
is a key strength allowing you to bring documents into
a controlled environment while project teams continue
using other systems.
Streamlined processes avoid double handling of data
and expensive third-party development costs, often
needed with other systems.
Integrate with familiar Microsoft Products
As a Microsoft Gold Application Development Partner,
intuitive and powerful integration through the Microsoft
Office suite as well as Outlook and SharePoint, provide
enormous efficiency gains for all project team
members.
Upload Documents, Drawings and Models
TeamBinder Integration – available for the full Microsoft
Office Suite and other tools including Revit, and
Microstation – make it easy for everyone to get
documents, drawings and models onto the platform.

TeamBinder works in perfect partnership with other
document and records management solutions, with the
use of meta data mapping. Our solution to integrate
and instantly synchronise documents across registers
is available for Microsoft SharePoint and can be

Class Leading Software Architecture
To achieve powerful integration, TeamBinder utilises a
compelling Application Programming Interface (API),
made possible by the sophisticated, class leading .NET
architecture and SQL database structure.
API is the connecting interface between TeamBinder
and the software that must be synchronised or
‘communicated’ with TeamBinder.
TeamBinder fully complies with the Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA) design where all the functionality
of TeamBinder is available via a standard web services
API interface.
TeamBinder, Tailored to Fit

documented, helping to form the best possible support
library available and providing reference material for
further development, compliance auditing or future
training.

BIM is changing the way teams collaborate through the
life of a project. With TeamBinder’s BIM package teams
can easily review, mark up, link documents and raise
linked correspondence directly from the model.

all the benefits of our renowned highest standards in
Document Control while making the latest
developments in building information modelling
available to all parties on the project..
