Building site automation at Plegt-Vos

Description

In recent years the building industry has made huge strides in efficiency. From a past filled with large colourless blueprints to a present with intricate and interactive 3D digital designs that are ready-made for construction. However, as buildings and accompanying regulations become more and more complex the amount of administrative work required from even a simple (sub-)contractor has increased exponentially. Faced with this challenge, Plegt-Vos decided to streamline the entire administrative process using digital technology, and make it faster and more fun at the same time.

General Information

Business Need: In recent years the building industry has made huge strides in efficiency. From a past filled with large colourless blueprints to a present with intricate and interactive 3D digital designs that are ready-made for construction. However, as buildings and accompanying regulations become more and more complex the amount of administrative work required from even a simple (sub-)contractor has increased exponentially. Faced with this challenge, Plegt-Vos decided to streamline the entire administrative process using digital technology, and make it faster and more fun at the same time.

Solution: Introducing GRIP, a digital platform designed to streamline the administrative process surrounding construction, making it possible to track and register everything that goes on during a project. Using GRIP it is a piece of cake to keep track of the construction progress as well as registering and assigning issues that are in need of fixing. Thanks to GRIP there’s a timeline and history at the end of every project, ensuring building quality and safety to customers. No matter where you are all the relevant information is always just a click or tap away.

Results: GRIP has created greater insight and a marked reduction in paper use by further digitalising its administration. Everything that has happened and is happening during construction can now easily be accessed, anytime, anywhere. Not only has it reduced the time spent on the administrative workload but GRIP has also provided a way to prove to customers set quality standards and targets have been met. All of this is available on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
