One platform. Every document. Zero confusion.
Methvin's Collaboration & Document Management module gives construction and infrastructure teams full control over drawings, specifications, RFIs, correspondence, and BIM data — with a complete audit trail from issue to approval.
Why teams choose Methvin for document control
Built for the complexity of construction — not adapted from generic file management software.
A single source of truth for every document revision
Every drawing, specification, and submittal lives in a structured register with automatic rev-control. No more emailed PDFs creating conflicting versions on site.
Traceable correspondence from day one
Log every letter, instruction, and early warning against the contract. Time-stamped threads mean disputes are resolved with evidence, not memory.
RFIs that close — not pile up
Route RFIs to the right respondent automatically, track due dates in real time, and export a complete register for project close-out or claim support.
BIM-linked document control
Attach IFC models, link clash-detection reports to the relevant drawing register, and give every stakeholder a federated view — without specialist software on every desk.
Four modules, one connected platform
Purpose-built tools that share a common data model so information flows without re-entry.
Document Control
Track prospects, clients, and consultants in a construction-specific CRM. Log every touchpoint, manage follow-up tasks, and see which relationships are generating tendering opportunities.
Learn more →Project Management
Track actions, milestones, and deliverables across the full project lifecycle — linked to documents and correspondence so context is never lost.
Learn more →Correspondence
Issue RFIs, addenda, clarifications, and scope amendments from within the platform. All outbound and inbound communications are automatically threaded and timestamped against the relevant bid.
Learn more →BIM
Upload, version, and share IFC models with clash-detection integration. Connect BIM objects directly to the drawing register and RFI log for full traceability.

Methvin Document Management was designed by people who have lived the chaos of mismanaged drawings and disputed instructions on large-scale infrastructure projects. Every feature solves a real pain point.
- Role-based permissions — control who can issue, review, or approve each document type
- Bulk transmittal creation and recipient tracking with read receipts
- Automated supersession — old revisions are archived, never deleted
- Linked register — RFIs, correspondence, and drawings share a common thread
- Export-ready for project close-out, O&M manuals, and claim packs
- Works on site on mobile — no VPN, no sync issues

What construction and infrastructure professionals say about Methvin.
“"We moved away from a major enterprise EDMS because Methvin was faster to configure and the correspondence module is genuinely purpose-built for construction. Our document controller loves it."”
“"The RFI tracker alone has saved us countless hours. Everything is time-stamped, the respondent chain is clear, and we can export the full register for the superintendent at any point."”
“"Finally a platform that links our BIM models to the drawing register. Our BIM manager and document controller are working from the same data — that used to be a manual reconciliation exercise every week."”
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Methvin's collaboration and document management module.
Does Methvin replace our existing EDMS?
Methvin is a full document control and collaboration platform. Many teams migrate from spreadsheet-based registers or legacy EDMS tools. We offer data migration support to bring your existing register across.
How does revision control work?
When a new revision is uploaded, the previous revision is automatically superseded and archived — it remains searchable but is clearly marked. The current revision is always displayed at the top of the register.
Can we manage RFIs and correspondence in the same platform?
Yes. RFIs, site instructions, early warnings, and formal letters are all managed in the Correspondence module, with links back to the relevant drawing or specification in the document register.
What BIM file formats are supported?
Methvin supports IFC (2×3 and 4), with a web-based viewer so stakeholders don't need desktop BIM software. Clash reports can be attached and linked to relevant RFIs or drawing revisions.
Is there a mobile experience for on-site use?
Yes. The platform is mobile-optimised for site use — document controllers and engineers can access the live register, raise RFIs, and view drawings on any device without a VPN or desktop app.
Can we export a full document register for project close-out?
Absolutely. The complete register — with revision history, transmittal records, RFI threads, and correspondence — can be exported to Excel or PDF for O&M manuals, handover packs, or claim documentation.
