“Introducing new technology such as GIS, especially mobile GIS, to the soldiers was challenging. However, once they saw the benefit of their collection efforts in a geospatial perspective, they realized it was an invaluable tool.”

“Trimble Connect has an incredibly low barrier to entry. It’s easy to access and use, so it opens the door to better collaboration across stakeholders, from the office to the field. With Trimble Connect, anyone can pull up the model and visualize any or all of the disciplines in one …

“This project was different right from the outset, not just in terms of its charitable nature but also the structure’s volume, its striking shape and the incredibly collaborative environment curated amongst stakeholders."

“The inability to register point clouds and compare them to coordination models on the jobsite was slowing down our workflows.”

“The new system allows for much more efficient and transparent backlog management. Our previous ways of working resulted in a loss of 5-10% of already agreed contract work.”

"The Trimble X7 scanner allows us to control our working atmosphere for prefabrication while also removing the added variables of a busy construction work area. The scanner also gives us exact information, which greatly diminishes the labor burden. It is efficient, user-friendly and informative."

“The biggest reason we were interested in investing in a scanner was that we wanted to be able to scan the mechanical room on a new construction site once the equipment is installed and set, The goal is to bring that information back into the model to see where the …

"The construction industry is very hands-on, so we wanted to do the FieldLink and RTS training on actual projects to make the best use of everyone’s time."

“With the Trimble, everyone is trained on one system and we’ve gained efficiencies by having one person do the layout instead of two, Superintendents can pick their own points and know what they are associated with, shoot any point they want on the fly, and share the information with the …

"Drawing-free delivery of infrastructure projects developed with the BIM and 3D methodologies is nothing new, but this is the first time that a system in which the models will be brought over to the maintenance- and operations phase is being created."

“Not only is this project extremely complex, it’s also the first of its kind to repurpose an existing mall this large in North America, We’re a tech-driven firm, so it was clear early on that we would need the most advanced technology to help us overcome the challenges and deliver …

"I saw businesses like ours using 3D laser scanning technology to more quickly capture very detailed data points, I knew that we could win more business and expand by putting the same technology in place.”

“I hit import and I was blown away because I could see every anchor bolt, nut, column, brace and everything in the entire frame.”

"One of the reasons for getting very few errors and mistakes is that all design has been done in 3D, with conflict control for all disciplines. That gives us good control and excellent work progress."

“The project manager for one client told us, ‘I’m a skeptic. I’m not crazy about some of these new technologies.’ Then he became a zealot within an hour because we saved him a lot of rework and mistakes that were caught early on.”
