NW Contractors Network Office gets a face lift


 

I have been working out of this office for about 3 months now and I was not able to see out into our lobby because the window had been boarded up with a piece of foamcore that had been mounted to the window with an industrial strength adhesive.  We nearly broke the window removing it and the solvents made our heads swim a bit but thanks to Sean Eaton and Patrick Kay the new window cling is installed and I think it looks great. The best part is it does not feel like I work out of a supply closet anymore, I can see out the largest window in my office.  NW Contractors Network is cruising right along and now that I have some official signage I need to make it work.  If you are a contractor looking for bid projects, stop in and see me in the Seattle location and I will show you what we have been working on.

TA-DAAAA!

PlanWell Moves to a Subscription Model on August 1st 2010

This change will not affect users of EWO or Public Planrooms, these services will continue to be free.
________________________________________________________________________
As our customers continue to adopt our technology solutions to improve efficiency, expanding our infrastructure in our technology centers has become a necessity. And this expansion has caused additional operating costs. This affects you because in the past the print orders you have placed with us on the PlanWell technology platform has completely subsidized the expense of our technology development and support capabilities. This model is no longer viable.

Effective Sunday, August 01, 2010 you will be required to purchase individual seat licenses for Users of PlanWell.

Seat Licenses will cost:
          $10 per month for a PlanWell Standard User ($120 per year)
or
          $20 per month for a PlanWell BidCaster User ($240 per year)

Data Storage will cost:

$20 per month for users requiring data storage on the PlanWell network. ($240 per year)

Even if you use PlanWell via telephone orders, it is imperative that you sign up for an account so you can access your company projects stored in PlanWell.

These new monthly usage charges can be invoiced for project reimbursement. Please contact Customer Support to assist you with specific invoicing needs.

In the next few months you'll see exciting new additions to PlanWell that will further enhance and support your digital workflow. For more information on PlanWell logins, please go to www.repronw.com
