Reimagining construction in Dallas, TX: Hexagon launches comprehensive workflows for building data capture and analysis
Dallas, TX, USA (February 1st, 2024) — Hexagon's Geosystems division today announced new workflow packages that automate the capture and analysis of construction progress and verification data. To 'Make Tech Matter,' the new offer helps construction companies realize the benefits of their tech investments by leveraging Hexagon's deep industry expertise, breadth of software and hardware solutions, and extensive network of local partners. The launch takes place amid the backdrop of live construction projects in Dallas, TX, where Hexagon utilizes the new integrated workflows as a testament to the transformative potential of innovative digitization solutions in a real-world setting.
Three integrated workflows leverage the combined power of Hexagon's construction portfolio brands Leica Geosystems, Multivista, OxBlue, Projectmates, AGTEK and Bricsys, which have a robust local presence and deep roots in Dallas:
- Visual progress of a job site is often hindered by limited remote access. Hexagon's Visual Progress Workflow provides 24/7 remote access, allowing proactive risk management through capturing, mapping and linking job-site visuals to floor plans or models and viewing them from virtually any device with a web browser and internet connection.
- Keeping up with the true state of construction progress by floor, area and trade can be challenging. The Progress Reporting Workflow automates the process of data capture, analysis and reporting so timely information is at construction stakeholders' fingertips 24/7.
- The As-built Verification Workflow ensures that the design intent documents or original as-builts are up to date. Capturing existing conditions in the field via laser scanning to accurately create or correct 2D and 3D documentation allows for the timely and seamless handover of documents to owners for operations and renovations.
In the construction industry, where disconnected solutions stymie digital transformations, Hexagon's consultative service helps customers bridge workflow silos, drive field-to-office efficiency and communication, and ultimately enable self-sufficiency in a customer's digital transformation journey. A four-step program guides general contractors and owners toward the optimal workflow that combines the best hardware and software solutions for their project needs.
Hexagon's Building Solutions experts work alongside customers throughout the discovery, recommendation, and deployment phases and provide continued support until the project's completion. The goal is to empower general contractors and owners to gain project insight and analysis for timely decision-making, risk mitigation, and streamlined data capture to maximize efficiency and increase the amount of useful data leveraged.
"Texas' construction market is one of the largest in the United States, and we have served it for many years. More recent local investments have allowed us to establish a strong footprint to offer the Dallas market a unique selection of construction technology and services. As Texas’ construction industry grapples with labor shortages, escalating cost pressures, and growing expectations for sustainable practices, it is ripe for a digital overhaul. This made the Dallas construction sites a prime selection for the launch of 'Make Tech Matter'." says Luis Pascual, VP Building Solutions at Hexagon's Geosystems division. "We are committed to being the trusted technology partner, from discovery to deployment and beyond, so our customers can focus on what matters most: bringing their projects to life efficiently, safely, and profitably."
