Atlantic Control Technologies is a full-service technology provider for large scale highly modern homes in North America. ACT was founded in 2006 by Steven Riley and Michael Ross to provide the best in high-level audio, video, lighting, and automated shade systems. Over nearly two decades, ACT has greatly expanded their offering and their understanding of what’s possible when it comes to delivering integrated technology. ACT has evolved and expanding services to clients throughout Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and DC.
With expert, dedicated departments covering in-house design, engineering, programming and service, Atlantic Control Technologies delivers the complete package, from beginning to end.
Servicing clients with extremely high expectations and comprising a workforce of highly technical teams of engineers and technicians, a typical day at ACT means navigating through complex technologies on the regular.
Site evaluations and fieldwork are part-and-parcel in any kind of construction or home improvement project. How effectively a team communicates while remote has obvious downstream effects on the rest of the project.
Zak Whipp, Design & Engineering Assistant, knew that there was a better way to take field notes and review design plans while on location. Zak Whipp discovered Drawboard PDF because there was ‘barely any competition from 3rd party PDF editors’ on the market and was driven to start looking in the first place because their previous editor ‘Acrobat made note-taking in the field difficult’.
ACT creates all its own plans in AutoCAD, so field notes are a critical part of the process. A clunky and ineffective method of field note-taking really slows down the whole process. Having a field annotation flow like Drawboard PDF that's easy to use and is more efficient, accumulates across multiple projects and multiple team members to really help improve efficiency and collaboration across the entire business.
Another key problem that they were looking to solve is PDF annotations that sync instantly and work cross-platform, a feature that sets Drawboard PDF apart. No matter what device or platform team members are using, notes, markups, and annotations are captured and visible through the ACT Drawboard PDF instance. With field teams using tables and in-office teams on Windows devices, all work is exactly where it’s expected to be, right there on the canvas in real-time.
With Drawboard PDF, Atlantic Control Technologies has observed significant improvements in daily workflow efficiency. Regardless of whether a team is small or large, technical or administrative, Drawboard PDF has a collaboration and PDF annotation solution for all use cases.
