BOSTON, MA, USA, Oct 16, 2026 — Newforma, the leader in project and information management for the architecture, engineering, construction and owner (AECO) industry, announced the Newforma Konekt  Egnyte Connector. It puts files stored in Egnyte next to the project record they belong to: the RFIs, submittals, action items, correspondence, and approvals that show what happened and when, giving AECO project workflows the context a storage folder can’t carry.

Many AECO firms run both kinds of systems. Egnyte holds the large files: drawings, specifications, models. Newforma Konekt is the industry’s single view into the many sources of truth on a project, no matter where the information started.

This connector gives Egnyte and Newforma users a complete project record that brings together critical documentation and communications, including RFIs, submittals, and Teams messages. It also provides a clear history of project decisions, showing who asked questions, who responded, and when. Without it, answering a single RFI can require searching through folders and downloading drawings before returning to the record to write a response.

Once a project is linked to Egnyte, project teams can:

• Preview without downloading. View PDF and image files inline, which matters for large drawing sets and for people working from a home office or a job site.
• Upload files from Newforma Konekt to Egnyte. Attach a file to an RFI or submittal response.
• Search connected folders. Find files, returning only what the user is allowed to see.
• Track what went out. See version and audit details in place, and generate a record copy each time a file is shared.

“Firms should not have to choose between the storage their IT team trusts and the project record their project team needs. A lot of our customers already run Egnyte. This connector puts those files where the work happens and leaves the files where IT wants them,” said Carl Veillette, Chief Product Officer, Newforma.

The connector follows the partnership between Newforma and Egnyte announced at Newforma World 2026 in May. Newforma works as a layer across the storage a firm already uses, including Microsoft SharePoint and Autodesk Docs, without moving the data.
