Environmental Consulting and Engineering projects rely heavily on email. Approvals, regulator feedback, scope clarifications, and client instructions often arrive in inboxes first, while budgets and billing live elsewhere. When those systems are disconnected, context is lost, records become incomplete, and billing reviews turn into investigations.
EVX Software Version 3.12 focuses on closing that gap. Not with flashy features, but by reinforcing the systems that quietly hold projects together: email reliability, search precision, synchronization integrity, and rate schedule management.
Despite the rise of collaboration platforms, project-critical communication continues to arrive by email. The challenge is not the email itself; it’s what happens next.
When emails remain in personal inboxes or are only partially captured in project systems, teams face:
Version 3.12 strengthens how EVX Software brings email into the project record, consistently and reliably.
Email polling has always been part of EVX Software. In this release, we focused on improving how email data is retrieved and processed, particularly when connecting with Gmail and Microsoft 365.
Improvements include:
These refinements reduce friction and increase confidence that project communication is being captured accurately.
Integrated email systems often fail at synchronization. An email marked as read in one system appears unread in another. Deleted messages reappear. Over time, this erodes trust.
Version 3.12 improves IMAP synchronization so actions taken within EVX Software are reflected on the email server. This creates:
Reliable synchronization builds confidence in the project record.
Search is critical in project environments. When the search is slow or inconsistent, teams lose time and repeat work.
In Version 3.12, database-level improvements enhance how email queries are processed, resulting in:
Whether during audits, billing reviews, or scope validation, finding the right email quickly matters.
Sending and receiving email through EVX Software should feel seamless. Synchronization timing has been optimized to reduce latency between the platform and email servers.
The result:
Billing rates change. Rebuilding rate schedules from scratch should not be required.
Version 3.12 introduces the ability to duplicate existing rate schedules. Teams can:
This reduces administrative effort while maintaining billing accuracy and traceability.




Field teams depend on fast, accurate expense entry. This release includes:
These updates reduce delays in expense capture and improve billing completeness.

Project outcomes are shaped by thousands of small interactions, emails sent, approvals received, expenses logged, rates applied. When those interactions are reliable, teams spend less time compensating for the system and more time focusing on their work.
