About
Google Drive is Google's cloud file storage service: teams upload, organize and share files of any type from any device, with shared drives, per-file permissions, AI search across stored content and PDF annotation. In AEC firms it holds project folders of drawings, specifications and reports, and it is a common destination that field, forms and project-management apps sync documents and photos into.
How teams use it
By audience
- Architecture
- Hold project folders of drawings, renders and specifications in shared drives that consultants open from any device
- Point Vectorworks Cloud Services at Drive so it processes stored design files into PDFs and 3D outputs
- Construction Management
- Act as the destination folder that Raken daily reports, CompanyCam photos and Mitti inspection PDFs sync into automatically
- Share a project's working files with owners and subcontractors using view, comment or edit permissions and expiry dates
- General Contracting
- Feed plans and files from a Drive folder into Fieldwire projects so the field works from the current set
- Store bid packages and tender documents that SmartBid and ConstructionOnline users pull into their projects
- IT & Systems Administration
- Manage shared drives, external-sharing rules, Vault retention and client-side encryption for project data from the Workspace admin console
- Authorise third-party apps such as Procore sync tools and AI assistants to read Drive under each user's own permissions
By phase
- Design
- Share evolving drawing sets and specifications with consultants in one shared drive instead of emailed copies
- Pre-Construction
- Distribute tender documents and bid packages from a shared folder, then pull them into bid-management tools
- Construction
- Receive daily reports, site photos and completed forms that field apps push into project folders
- Sync drawings and files into field tools like Fieldwire from a watched Drive folder
- Closeout & Operations
- Keep the project archive of as-builts, reports and inspection PDFs in a shared drive the owner can be given access to
