SECTOR
Construction

Overview
Construction challenges vary across the different asset classes being designed and constructed. What connects them is the thread of control, accuracy, cost-management and managing complex supply chains on busy sites.
Now, more than ever, with digitalisation of the construction industry moving at pace, such as Modern methods of construction, BIM and automation of processes on-site, driving the need for timely and accurate location information. Ensuring that projects are guided by informed decisions in real-time and delivered in scope and on budget.
Subsectors_
PUBLIC
Public sector construction projects range from schools and hospitals, to detention facilities and libraries.
The common thread through this sub-sector is public funding, responsibility for the public as users and large, potentially complex sites. Therefore cost, safety and accuracy are key drivers for decision makers in this space.
Our geospatial solutions support our clients to ensure projects can be delivered in scope and on budget.

STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING
During demolition or deep excavations, the monitoring of the structural integrity of adjacent structures prevents catastrophic collapses and enables mitigation before damage. Our engineers help to find the best monitoring solutions to monitor, inform and alarm.
- Pile walls
- Façades
- Utilities
- Structural load
- Environment (Noise, Air Quality & Vibration)
TRANSPORT HUBS
Transport Hub construction projects like Airports, Train and Bus stations provide their own unique challenges. High-traffic, complex security needs, significant cost profiles and access for large dimensionally challenging vehicles mean that accuracy, cost and quality of delivery are all critical.
Our geospatial solutions help our clients rely on timely accurate information to support the decision making process and enable project delivery.

RETAIL & HOSPITALITY
Our clients who construct retail and hospitality assets often face large, complex sites with significant commercial focus on the project delivery. Projects vary greatly from shopping malls and retail outlets to hotels and venues. What connects them is the need to build with quality and speed to ensure maximum value for the client on handover of the asset(s).
Our solutions support these needs helping to deliver an efficient and on-spec build for the end-client.
