Construction Design-Build Optimization
This application area focuses on optimizing the end‑to‑end design and delivery workflow in construction projects, especially in design‑build and other integrated delivery models. It uses data from drawings, BIM models, schedules, cost plans, RFIs, and past project performance to detect design coordination issues, improve constructability, and forecast schedule and budget impacts before they materialize on site. The core goal is to reduce rework, clashes, delays, and cost overruns caused by fragmented information and late discovery of design and planning errors. By continuously analyzing multi‑disciplinary models, documents, and project data, these systems surface conflicts, missing information, and high‑risk decisions early in the design and preconstruction phases. They also provide decision support for project managers and design teams through automated clash detection, constructability checks, scenario comparison, and more accurate schedule and cost predictions. This matters because even small improvements in design quality and planning reliability can translate into millions in avoided rework, claims, and schedule slippage on large construction programs.
The Problem
“Your projects bleed cash because design issues are found only after construction starts”
Organizations face these key challenges:
Design clashes and coordination issues are discovered late, forcing costly rework on site
Schedules and budgets slip because early estimates don’t reflect real constructability constraints
