Owner and developer Blacksand has selected InEight Document to centralize document control, strengthen collaboration across internal teams and contractors, and support scalable growth across its expanding project portfolio.
Scottsdale, AZ – InEight, a leading provider in construction project controls software, announced today that Blacksand has chosen InEight Document to provide streamlined document control capabilities as it pursues its ambitious growth plans and works to refine its project delivery processes.
Headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Blacksand is redefining the real estate development sector across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through the development and management of a portfolio of infrastructure and mixed-use capital projects. The company sought a centralized, robust solution to support the entire project lifecycle.
As an owner and developer that collaborates with external designers and EPC contractors, improving communication, supply chain coordination, and information sharing was a key priority. Blacksand required a platform that would enhance collaboration while providing control and efficiency across all project phases.
A Centralized Document Control Platform for Owners and Developers
After evaluating several options, Blacksand’s team selected InEight Document for its ability to meet all their requirements, including the replacement of siloed applications and manual processes with a connected system that enables seamless collaboration.
“As our operations at Blacksand grow, we started looking for a platform that could scale with us, a solution that would allow us to foster collaboration across our teams, and with external stakeholders,” said Omar Alabdullatif, CEO of Blacksand. “InEight stood out as the solution that would support our document control efforts and bring our project data together.”
Connecting Project Data Across the Entire Delivery Lifecycle
InEight Document delivers real-time project information to all team members and supports files of any size, type, or volume. This empowers companies like Blacksand to securely access the most up-to-date version of a document and keep reviews, RFIs, and approvals on track.
As the next phase of its digital transformation, Blacksand plans to expand its InEight footprint with InEight Control, InEight Contract, and InEight Change, alongside the real-time reporting capabilities of InEight Report & Explore to further strengthen project oversight and decision-making.
“We’re excited to support Blacksand as their team transforms document control across the project lifecycle,” said Jake Macholtz, CEO of InEight. “With InEight Document, they’ll gain the control and scalability needed to drive successful outcomes throughout their project portfolio. And they gain the ability to expand their InEight solution into other functions thanks to our modular platform.”
