          About MySmartPlans

          Shelley and Dominick Armato
          Shelley is the founder and CEO of MySmartPlans. Her husband, Dominick, is a co-founder and president. They suffered firsthand from the effects of the chaos in the industry. Dominick, a 45-year contractor, was wildly successful, and one project with insufficient data caused them to shut the doors on that company. But they rose again and reinvented the construction industry by streamlining the business.

          MySmartPlans is a technology-enabled service  and platform with an experienced digital information librarian as part of your team who creates transparency, organization, and efficiency in construction projects. They are the driving force behind Data Governance, which mitigates the risk associated with insufficient document oversight. MySmartPlans has been improving the industry for 19 years and has a revenue aggregate of over billions of dollars. Build on time, on schedule, and with audited pre-discovery files that are proven to prevent litigation!

          We have the most advanced construction technology for building world-class facilities in the world. Use this for our identity!

        • Customer Testimonials

          MySmartPlans has saved thousands of hours in costly rework and has allowed us to collaborate with our team members in the most efficient manner possible.

          Craig Childers

          MySmartPlans helped us focus on the project rather than collection of data & documentation. The MSP team knows what needs to be included and does a great job gathering, managing and ensure timey responses on required information. It also gives us a centralized location for project documentation, giving us comfort of knowing where to find information in the future. MSP allows us to work smarter and be smarter.

          Technology has made promises over the years that someday we would all be paperless and all electronic, but there has been a missing link in sharing information between groups. MySmartPlans is the medium that fills that gap.

          Rick Thompson

          As a construction litigator…to be able to point and click and find the documentation that relates to that specific change order, whatever, in seconds as opposed to days or weeks manually would be a game changer.

When Only the Best Will Do

In today’s litigious market in construction, protecting assets supports peace of mind, however, how is that accomplished? For advanced projects, only the best will do for project and data management.

PMIS (Project Management Information Systems) do not work, and paper, PDFs, and emails, still leave the issue of best supporting the project. PMIS were developed to support, track, organize, and deliver information, but one essential part is missing: there’s a hole in the project’s knowledge.

MySmartPlans to the rescue!

With MySmartPlans, your project only works with vetted, organized data; smart audit trails; and a 4:00 EOD report. Your information is easy to access and the system is built to support all stakeholders, including the blue-collar trades. Current technologies have built bigger islands, led to PTSD for technology, and produce less trust and more corruption!

So how could the fix be so simple? MySmartPlans prices per project, not on a seat license, and rules and permissions are set by the project owner. MSP is easy to use and removes the hours stakeholders spend on an average project looking for correct information on which to base essential decisions, which eliminates poor decision-making and lost prosecution opportunities.

A funny story comes to mind: we supported a sizeable city hall for a large city, and the GC was miffed that the city had MySmartPlans on the project. In our first meeting, he shook his hand with anger asking why he would need us since he had his own system (everyone has their own system). In response, we quietly shared our demo, one button at a time. We showed the GC how MSP offers one click to access knowledge, that all data is smart and linked, how it offers PDF delivery and print on demand, outputs a plan holders list with time and date stamp, offers weather tracking and submittal tracking with BIM model delivery, and how naming conventions are followed and tracked. He wasn’t convinced.

The project starts, and we hear from the GC quite a bit:

  1. He calls and says he has a contractor who needs training, so MySmartPlans emails the contractor and sets up live training.
  2. He asks how to set up the SubmittalEZ module, so MySmartPlan helps him set it up.
  3. He asks us how to add meeting minutes, and his MySmartPlans PIM says to send them to us, and we will time stamp and add them to the calendar.
  4. He asks how to add OAC meetings to the calendar, and his MySmartPlans PIM again says to send them to us we will add and distribute and attend the OAC meeting, listening for missing documents.

By this point, his reluctance turned to appreciation. Then the phone call comes at 5:00 on Friday night accusing us of missing a report that the contractor needed for payment, after which he sends an angry email to all stakeholders blaming MySmartPlans. This was an easy fix for us since we had the forensics of the project and we knew who, what, where, and how everything happens. We were able to debunk the angry email with one click of the plan holders’ list. In this situation, the GC had not been on the project dashboard or sent us info, so after one phone call and one meeting, the GC had to own his mistake.

You think at this point the GC would be upset, but no – with everything transparent through MySmartPlans, everyone is accurately accountable. No finger-pointing, no excuses! Catching this mistake saved the city thousands of dollars and countless hours, and the GC actually became a huge MySmartPlans fan. He didn’t think he needed us until he needed us, and then we saved the day.

How else does MySmartPlans prevent litigation?
