Vinci construction is again with Sword CTSpace on the management of documents and work collaboration on their latest project: the new ‘Yacht club de Monaco’ conceived by the architects Norman Foster (England) and Alexandre Giraldi (Monaco). Sword CTSpace will implement their internet-hosted Saas solution for the project.
Paris, France – December 14th, 2009 – Sword CTSpace, developer of solutions for document management and collaboration in engineering and construction the world over, announced today that they will be working with Vinci Construction on the new ‘Yacht club de Monaco’. The project has been designed by Lord Norman Foster (who has also developed the London City Hall, the Hearst Tower in New York and the Millennium Tower project in Japan) and Alexandre Giraldi (who is the main architect behind the Odeon Tower in Monaco).
The ‘Yacht Club de Monaco’ will tower above Louis II Boulevard at the end of the American quay on the Monaco harbor front. The designs have been described as a true architectural masterpiece. It is designed to be Monaco’s sporting and social hub and when completed will form an infrastructure for the sailing school, the nautical society, event spaces, restaurants, bars shops and a museum. The main building will cover 59,000 ft² and there will be an additional 19,000 ft² of public space and terraces. The construction of the building is scheduled for completion by the end of 2011 and the total cost is estimated to be more than $129 million.
Sword CTSpace will help Vinci to optimize communication on the project, simplify the access to documentation and put efficient approval and validation processes in place. The platform will make organization and control of the project fully transparent in a highly secure and evolving environment.
