EDocuments – Digital O&M and handover software
Structured and consistent digital O&M manuals that enable Asset Intelligence from project handover into operation.
Trusted digital O&M and handover software
EDocuments is a proven digital handover platform used across thousands of construction and fit out projects. It helps contractors, subcontractors and project teams compile, structure and deliver accurate and compliant digital O&M manuals and handover documentation.
Now part of Glider, EDocuments continues to provide high‑quality digital handovers while enabling a structured transition from project delivery into long‑term asset operations.
What is EDocuments?
EDocuments is specialist digital handover software designed to help project teams manage O&M manuals and handover information throughout the lifecycle of a construction project. It replaces fragmented documents and manual processes with a structured, auditable workflow that supports consistent, compliant and complete digital handovers.
In practice, this approach is often referred to as Asset Information Production Management (AIPM). AIPM is the management of how asset information is created across a supply chain during construction. It ensures information is produced to the right standard throughout the project, rather than being assembled or chased at handover. This sits at the core of every successful digital handover.
With EDocuments, teams can:
- Compile digital O&M manuals in a structured format
- Manage subcontractor and supplier submissions
- Review, comment and approve documentation collaboratively
- Track progress and identify missing or non‑compliant information
- Deliver client‑ready digital handovers with confidence
The result is reduced handover risk, fewer delays at practical completion and a smoother transition into building operations.
EDocuments O&M templates
The EDocuments platform includes a comprehensive library of ready-made O&M templates. These templates help project teams produce consistent, well-structured digital O&M manuals that meet industry standards and best practice.
EDocuments templates help teams:
- Reduce setup time
- Improve data quality
- Ensure consistency across projects
- Produce high-quality digital O&M outputs
Clients using EDocuments
EDocuments supports a structured, governed approach to managing O&M manuals, drawings, certificates, warranties and handover information through a controlled, auditable workflow. This reduces manual chasing, improves quality control and gives project teams a structured process for delivering complete handovers.
Used on projects of all sizes, EDocuments helps provide consistent documentation from design through to project closeout.
Clients rely on EDocuments to:
- manage complex supply chain contributions
- eliminate inconsistent document formats
- maintain quality through collaborative review workflows
- produce reliable digital handover packages first time
How Glider supports your EDocuments projects
Glider’s implementation services make sure digital handover information is delivered in a way that supports long‑term value. Our team works with project and operational teams to configure the platform, align all information with client requirements and establish clear data structures from day one.
This ensures information captured at handover remains structured, governed and usable as the foundation for Asset Intelligence once a building enters operation.
Asset Intelligence and EDocuments
Asset Intelligence is the discipline of creating information that is structured, governed and sustained throughout the building lifecycle. It ensures that the handover information produced during a project remains accurate and useful as buildings change over time.
Strong O&M data supports:
- Improved decision quality
- Better maintenance planning
- Clearer compliance pathways
- More effective performance analysis
- Stronger digital foundations for future technology
High‑quality digital handover is the first step in enabling reliable long‑term asset information and Asset Intelligence.
EDocuments heritage
EDocuments has been a trusted digital O&M and handover platform for more than 20 years, supporting thousands of construction and fit out projects with structured, compliant and complete handover information.
In 2024, Glider acquired both the EDocuments platform and the specialist team behind it. The same experts who built, delivered and supported EDocuments over two decades are now fully integrated into Glider’s leadership, development, sales and service delivery teams. This ensured continuity for existing users and preserved the deep technical knowledge and industry expertise developed over many years.
Today, the EDocuments platform is actively being used to support the capture and validation of handover information for hundreds of live construction projects.
Glider’s acquisition of EDocuments aligned proven digital handover capability with long‑term Asset Intelligence expertise, bringing together:
- Proven digital handover capability built over many years
- Long‑term information governance and structured data management expertise
- Smoother information flow from project handover into operational use
- A shared ambition to help organisations understand the value of structured information and the discipline of Asset Intelligence
