Single Source of Truth that keeps all stakeholders aligned with the latest data and design changes.
Smart Optimization Tools to quickly generate and test multiple layout options for the most efficient configurations.
02

Detailed Design

In this phase, detailed construction documents and system designs are developed, specifying every component of the project.
Gap analysis takes up to 13 weeks, delaying project timelines
Overlapping gap analysis waves create confusion and bottlenecks
Inability to accurately predict project budgets, leading to costly surprises
Our software
