Bluebeam has launched Task Link, a native integration between Bluebeam Revu and GoCanvas that brings the two together into a unified field-office workflow.
Bluebeam acquired GoCanvas 18 months ago. When the acquisition was announced, the shared vision “was to combine Bluebeam’s markup and collaboration capabilities with GoCanvas’s real-time field data collection, giving construction teams a seamless, end-to-end workflow with fewer communication gaps, fewer errors and far more visibility,” Bluebeam said.
Task Link enables users to:
- push tasks from Revu to the field instantly, with updates reflected in real-time;
- keep teams aligned through automatic notifications as work advances;
- capture verifiable onsite data via GoCanvas mobile forms – including photos, videos, signatures and structured inputs; and
- maintain a single source of truth with all submissions linked directly back to Revu markups.
“Task Link represents the next step in our commitment to interoperability and connected workflows between the office and the field,” said Luke Prescott, head of product at Bluebeam. “By tying Revu’s markup ecosystem to GoCanvas’s digital field data collection, we’re eliminating friction, strengthening accountability and giving teams a faster, more collaborative way of working.”
Task Link is available to all Bluebeam subscribers with an active GoCanvas subscription.
Bluebeam has also updated its iOS and Android apps to enhance core markups and the Studio collaboration environment.
iOS users gain the following:
- measurement tools (length, area, polylength, count) for on-the-spot verification;
- basic pdf form filling directly in-app to complete checklists and project documents from the field; and
- offline access to Studio Projects for updating project documents on remote jobsites.
Meanwhile, Android users gain:
- image markups on drawings for immediate visual clarity;
- precision pen-eraser for cleaner edits without restarting; and
- local PDF support, enabling easy document access and editing anytime, anywhere.
