There is a data transformation occurring in the construction industry as emerging technologies and solutions are empowering contractors to collect increased detail on their projects—and do more with this information. These technologies are changing the very way contractors across all disciplines operate, leading to smarter, safer construction projects and higher profit margins.

Trimble's connected construction platforms help integrate data from all sources, improving construction productivity

Caldwell Marine’s construction ERP system by Viewpoint helped keep the project on schedule by centralizing and providing complete visibility into the project’s financial data, giving both on-site and out-of-state team members easy access to project data.

A new decade means new opportunities for heavy highway and civil contractors. There has been a renewed emphasis on infrastructure and public works projects around the globe in the past few years. Despite some roadblocks—a comprehensive infrastructure bill in the U.S. potentially worth more than $1 trillion in new work has yet to see significant movement in Congress—more and more work is being approved in smaller batches at all levels of government.

Viewpoint’s Service Tech™ app provides service technicians with a mobile field tool to manage and review work orders, assign and update labor, collect electronic signatures, upload jobsite photos and forms, and more. The app integrates with ViewpointOne.

The productivity gap is one of the biggest issues contractors have had to wrestle with on their projects. Unlike most other industries — manufacturing, for instance, where work is carried out and tightly controlled in a central location — work is not uniform. Each project has its own unique set of challenges — from remote locations and disconnected jobsites to weather and environmental issues to communication, collaboration and ineffective data mining across project teams.
