Before adopting HoloBuilder, our company made use of cell phone images and videos to capture site progress and services. It was difficult to communicate the exact positions and areas that were captured. We identified that there could be improvements in the time spent and the accuracy of these methods. Managing projects across Africa from our base in Cape Town posed logistical challenges. It was not feasible to travel every second week, necessitating a solution to track progress and manage projects remotely. Additionally, we faced issues related to the availability of accurate as-built drawings. The primary issue was efficiently recreating mechanical ducting, fire protection, and other essential elements in buildings where precise documentation was either missing or outdated.
Our core vision is to deliver value to each project, and HoloBuilder brought us a step closer to this vision. The goals of adopting HoloBuilder included:
Effectively manage sites remotely, providing a comprehensive view of the project without the need for frequent site visits. Save on travel time and costs, enabling us to allocate resources more efficiently and focus on other critical aspects of our projects. A camera is left on sites, and it is the responsibility of the Site Manager to ensure regular updates can be received.
Since adopting HoloBuilder over a year ago, we have integrated it into all our projects across Africa. The notable business outcomes include:
In conclusion, the adoption of HoloBuilder has been a game-changer for PR Engineering Africa. It has allowed us to overcome the challenges of lacking accurate as-built drawings and has significantly improved our project management capabilities. The tool has not only saved us time and costs but also enhanced the quality and efficiency of our services, aligning perfectly with our vision to deliver value in every project. Furthermore, we also invite other professionals and stakeholders to make use of HoloBuilder at the specific sites and promote collaboration within the team to deliver a successful project.
Accurate site capture and progress tracking has drastically improved our project coordination, giving enhanced oversight and refined project execution, making HoloBuilder an essential tool in our operations.
