How to Digitally Conduct Construction Progress Monitoring?

digitally conduct construction progress monitoring

Keeping track of progress on your construction site is a Herculean task. With various agencies working on the same site, progress and task monitoring becomes an easy answer to all arising problems. No matter how many manual checkpoints you may keep for construction progress monitoring, nothing can beat advanced technological solutions to your on-site issues.

Here are 3 ways in which technology can help you beat human errors while you carry out construction progress monitoring for your project:-

Camera Based Monitoring 

Your project manager or engineer may get a case of burnout while overseeing your project but cameras never sleep. Get a 360° view of your construction site 24X7 and keep abreast with the rate of progress. Shrink the gap between what was planned and the current situation by staying up-to-date with every single activity. You can also compare the status of your project to a previous timeline to quantify the level of growth. This method of construction progress monitoring is more cost-efficient and increases the security of your project site manifold. 

It’s not an either or situation when it comes to opting for the kind of strategy for construction progress monitoring.

App-based monitoring 

Apart from tracking and managing operations from remote places, collaborative apps are great for construction progress monitoring. Various teams can feed in their levels of progress on the app while making it easier to track the progress and completion status of particular milestones. 

Cloud-based construction management apps make mobile devices BIM (building information modeling) compliant and can be regularly backed up with project files and data so that the management or the investors can monitor the physical status of your project from any part of the world. 

App-based monitoring not only helps with construction progress monitoring but also helps track purchase orders, payments, timesheets, managing budgets and many more such tedious tasks.

Drone based scanning 

Drone monitoring is especially utilized in the development industry for surveying and construction progress monitoring purposes. Drones are equipped with downward-facing sensors, like RGB, multispectral or thermal that capture an excellent deal of aerial data during a short time. During the development phase, site managers need to control and validate completed add order to allow continued work. The faster you’re ready to check and validate a task, the faster you’ll advance to subsequent tasks, saving time along the general construction process. Given the relatively low cost of employing a drone to gather visual data on a construction site, it’s possible to hold out surveys on a daily basis and build up a record of progress.This timeline of data is often to control and validate tasks more quickly, saving time and ensuring that deadlines are met.

In a nutshell, drone based scanning massively helps track and validate the percentage of the project completed, the quantity installed and the rate at which the work is being completed. It is the one sureshot way of maintaining project timelines and ensuring accurate construction progress monitoring,
