March 10, 2008

NEW YORK, March 7 /PRNewswire/ -- McGraw-Hill Construction (MHC), part of The McGraw-Hill Companies (NYSE:MHP) , today announced the recently launched Project Document Manager (PDM), co-developed with its partner ReproMAX, has been adopted by several key industry leaders, such as Skanska USA Building, Austin Commercial, and Hill International. PDM is the first service to provide full document control over the entire lifecycle of a project that is integrated with MHC's Project Network and Dodge project news, plans, and specs; interoperable with leading project management software; and seamlessly connected to ReproMAX and its national network of local on-demand printing and digital providers. PDM will be highlighted at the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) annual national convention and ConExpo (MHC booth # N1200), on March 10-15, 2008, in Las Vegas, NV. As a powerful software application, PDM provides the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) community with the ability to control all project intelligence, construction documents and project management functions on a single, secure platform. Users can manage the complete workflow process -- design, bidding, project management, project closing, and even operations -- from PDM's intuitive interface. With PDM, construction documents are available online and easily shared or routed to ReproMAX local printing outlets for printing and shipping. Whether a firm still relies on paper or has adopted a paperless process, PDM makes critical daily tasks easier to manage and control.
