“A lot of the waste in construction is from the repeated drawings — it’s the miscommunications, the amount of back-and-forth emails, With connected construction, everyone gets involved in the process from the time it goes from the bid board to when it’s installed and beyond. That solves a major amount …

“Having clean and organized data is central to our business success so we knew we needed to overhaul our system so that our customers could subsequently become more efficient and profitable themselves.”

“One of the real challenges – which make this project quite unique – is the way in which we serve up the data to our client. This is accomplished by means of a Web user interface, desktop software, SMS and e-mail messages."

“Karp-Kneip believes in the benefits of our technology, As a user of guidance systems for its excavators, graders and bulldozers, the Luxembourg-based company has also adopted Trimble’s 3D machine control solutions for its milling subsidiary Rabotech, which supplies the site’s machines with Colas.”

“Siteworks is like a digital filing cabinet. We just grab what we need, and get to work. It’s a critical part of our connected workflow that brings the field and office together in so many ways. The office can send new models to the field just as easily as the …

“More importantly, the software helps us define our strategy for the days ahead, The Activity functionality combines the data from our operations, like average volumes of dirt we planned to move, the volumes we did move on the project and which machinery we assigned to which jobs and more general …

“The world is 3D, so it makes total sense to follow a full 3D workflow in our civil engineering business. Over the years we have made the successful transition from a paper-based to a full-digital workflow. The knowledge we have acquired, combined with the state-of-the-art systems and software from Trimble, …

“Anna and I started Malacon in 2018 after many years of working as employees in different consultancy companies and for a number of municipalities, Over time the company has grown to a team of around 12. We are part of a local cluster of smaller companies working together on projects. …

“When I started at Malacon we all concluded that my knowledge of the software was good enough to start working independently."

“At Malacon, our main competence is road and street design, but we are also at home in landscape design and water and sewer engineering. Both Sara and I have been using Novapoint as our main design tool since the start of our careers. So when we started our own business …

“The 3D model has become absolutely central to everything we do in the project, As a contractor, using Quadri as a model database means we always have access to the designer's model and can retrieve construction data in real time. In this way, we can use the same updated model …

“Together, you should set goals early on to establish which parts are valuable for the contractor to receive in 3D, and collectively determine levels of detail that are suitable for different parts of the project. It is important to go through how the contractor can also retrieve data from the …

“One of the challenges was to communicate obstacles, errors and the need for adjustments throughout production. Quick decisions were necessary to keep up the pace of production."

“Much of what we have done here is ground-breaking."

“The value of making this visible early is enormous."
