Inspector now have laptops for in the field & we are looking at how they could access the plans on the laptops. Should we load the plans on the laptop or maybe access them through a cloud base program. Probably do not need complete plans, maybe specific details or pages to reference during inspections if needed.

I've seen this done several places in the past using both laptops and tablet computers. In both cases they store the complete drawings on a server in the office and then people in the field can access the drawings they need over the web. I think this is a much more secure option than storing the drawings on "the cloud". If all of the drawings are stored there the inspector or engineer can access any drawing he needs to.
