4.0 CONTROLLED DOCUMENTS This section details the fields and values associated with managing project documents using Aconex. All project participants when registering documents must apply the appropriate document tags defined by for the project. The ‘document tags’ are the key information or metadata fields that are used to identify the document such as Number, Title, Date Created. As a minimum Aconex requires all registered documents to be tagged with mandatory fields (denoted by red asterisks).

Royal North Shore - CSB – PW-AD-0001 – Rev 01 12

4.2 Document Numbering Convention All documents registered in Aconex are required to have a unique number assigned (i.e. no duplicate numbers can be registered). The Aconex document number field is flexible and can support a variety of numbering conventions commonly adopted on projects. The document number field supports text, numbers and other characters permitted by the Microsoft Windows operating system.

4.2.1 Document Numbering All documents produced on this project must be numbered in accordance with the number convention defined below. Please refer to the relevant reference tables for codes applicable to the numbering parts.

Attribute 1 – Project Code

Organisation Code

Discipline Code Unique

Number*

CSB - ARUP - ST 1001

Table 6 – Document Disciplines

Table 6 – Document Disciplines

Appendix for number range

FIGURE 2- DOCUMENT NUMBER STRING *The Number part can either be a simple sequential number or it can match the originator’s own file or document number. The ‘Building’ and ‘Discipline’ prefix the number to ensure uniqueness.

4.2.2 Multiple File formats (e.g. CAD files) Aconex does not support multiple file formats attached to an individual document number when registered on Aconex. Where more than one file extension with the same document number is required, it should be registered as a new document number with a ‘file format’ abbreviation appended to the end of the document number. For example, when there is a requirement to register both the PDF and DWG version of a CAD file. In order to differentiate between the two documents, include a file format or other suffix (e.g. CAD):

Appendix for number

range

FIGURE 3- DOCUMENT NUMBER STRING WITH FILE FORMAT SUFFIX Please note that the suffix is only required where the same file in two formats need to be registered. It can be omitted if only a single format of the file is being registered. Whilst native files are required for coordination at certain stages/phases of the project the agreed project document distribution format is PDF.

4.2.3 File Name Recognition Files named and saved in local/network drives in accordance with the project document numbering convention are able to capitalize on the file name recognition feature in Aconex. The figure below provides examples of appropriate file names and how the elements of the file name will be imported into Aconex as the document number and revision.

File Format Examples of Computer file name Registered Number on Aconex Rev

4.3 Revision Convention Document revisions should be sequential and should not change unless the project moves to the next phase. Members registering or superseding documents are to update the revision in accordance with the convention described for each status lifecycle. The document revision practices adopted on the project are detailed in the following table. TABLE 4 – REVISION CONVENTION

4.4 Title Convention The Document Title is important and all team members must use coherent titles when registering documents. This field is an important element in searching for and retrieval of historical information within the database. The following are guidelines on good practice use of the title field:

DO make the title the same as the hardcopy

Titles should typically be very specific, e.g.”Building A – Ground Floor Reflected Ceiling Layout” or “Design Team Meeting Minutes”.

DON’T duplicate document titles

DON’T use vague titles like: Drawing 1, Drawing 2, Drawing 3 etc.

5.0 PROJECT MAIL The mail module is for communication only. It should not be used for sending drawings, specifications, shop drawings, schedules or other documents that should be distributed within the Documents module in Aconex.

5.1 Project Mail Protocols All project specific communication on this project must be sent via Aconex. Other means of correspondence such as email and fax will not be accepted by Brookfield Multiplex unless approval is given by Brookfield Multiplex, in exceptional circumstances only. Please ensure the following practices are always adhered to when using the project mail module:

1. Avoid correspondence overload by refraining from a scattergun approach. Address “To” and “CC” correspondence to relevant recipients only.

2. Insert a clear and concise subject title with key searchable words (easier to find later)

3. If the correspondence requires a response (and only when a response is essential), you must;

Select the “Response Required” option (assists with exception reporting) Nominate who you anticipate the response from (address “To” and then “CC” others) Insert a reasonable “respond by” date

4. When responding, ensure that you select the “Reply” option so that questions and responses are linked. In

doing so the mail system will acknowledge at both ends that you have responded.

5.2 Project Mail Numbering Convention All Project Mail generated in Aconex is automatically assigned with the next available number associated with the selected project mail type.
