The MyProjects story

Easy collaboration

Managing, storing and sharing project information can be hugely challenging. With multiple files, multiple stakeholders, and security and integrity of project information a priority, for many it can be chore. MyProjects combines cloud file management with industry services Smartspec and Productspec to smash this paradigm. It makes the management and sharing of project information easier, and keeps this information secure and up-to-date.

You can share individual files, or complete project folders, with everyone involved in a project. Project stakeholders can view and interact with files without logging in.

MyProjects was launched in 2020 by the team behind Productspec and Smartspec in order to deliver a better experience for anyone involved in managing projects in the construction sector. MyProjects is a part of Construction Marketing Services, a leading industry organisation that connects product suppliers with the specification, building and construction community. The MyProjects team are continually developing the platform’s functionality and are always introducing new features in response to feedback from users.

A better way to manage project files All project information is stored in the one place and you can access files anywhere, anytime.

Safe and secure storage Everything is stored on the cloud, so you’re using less space on your computer, files cannot be compromised, and there’s no risk of losing project information. Project finished? Simply archive it so it’s out of the way, knowing you can retrieve the information at any time.

Maintain an up-to-date-library You can store information on frequently used products, sourced from Productspec, the internet or your own computer, in your own library. Product files from Productspec will be kept up-to-date.

Available to everyone MyProjects is easy to use and freely available to anyone working in the construction sector, regardless of the specification platform, operating system or services they use. You can check out MyProjects at myprojects.co.nz.
