Newforma(R) Answers Demand for Additional Webinars on Project Information Management Support for Integrated Project Delivery

MANCHESTER, NH--(Marketwire - August 17, 2009) - Newforma®, a software company addressing the
project information management (PIM) needs of architecture, engineering and
construction firms, today announced four additional webinars in its
successful webinar series, "Project information management (PIM) for
integrated project delivery (IPD)." Attendees of previous webinars in the
series have requested additional sessions to learn how project information
management can address issues that are specific to construction firms, how
PIM facilitates e-discovery and how to streamline space programming. By
popular demand, "Getting to the bottom of your inbox: managing project
email, part 2" has been added to address the needs of decision capture,
transparency and accountability in the emerging world of IPD.

As the many benefits of IPD are better understood and more universally
adopted by owners, architects, engineers and construction firms, the sheer
volume of project information being created and shared between the members
of the project team is growing exponentially. Therefore it is increasingly
important for design and construction firms to understand and embrace best
practices for proactively managing project information. AEC industry
veterans and Newforma executives Ian Howell and Bob Batcheler will lead
four webinars this fall to help firms understand how PIM software can help
avoid certain pitfalls as they strive to implement work processes for IPD.
Each webinar will highlight real-world examples based upon the experiences
of Newforma's worldwide customer base.

"Firms striving to implement the tenets of IPD are rapidly discovering a
new set of project information management challenges and are often
struggling with the best ways to overcome them," said Howell, Newforma's
CEO. "Customers tell us that our 'PIM for IPD' webinar series has helped
them gain a better understanding of strategies to share with their project
teams and external partners. We are delighted that our webinar series is
helping to meet a business need both for participants and others who view
the recordings which continue to be available on our website."
