About PlanTech
PlanTech, a well-established US based construction company with huge projects, needed an improvement of their business processes and better optimization of their resources. As their business expanded, projects continuously got delayed which resulted in lawsuits by unhappy clients. We faced a variety of challenges to develop niche technological solutions for a company involved in the construction industry.
Customisation for the Layman
Problem
Large scale construction projects involve different stakeholders — owner, labourer, project manager etc.
Every stakeholder had different responsibilities but the project needed synchronization.
Both foremen and construction labor were not technologically savvy and relied on offline paper management.
Solution
- Designed separate web and mobile apps for foremen (project managers) and construction staff (labourers).
- Applications have synchronised features — calendar, attendance — updated in real time.
- Simple UI for the layman, developed after many iterations with client approval.
Improving the Efficiency
Problem
Managing and controlling large scale construction projects is a massive challenge.
All construction work stopped due to delay by one department.
Example: If there is no wood, the project halts even if cement is available.
Inter-department communication caused bottleneck delays.
Example: Painting team can't start unless the construction team announces completion.
Solution
We developed a dedicated central project management panel — a centralised system where all team leaders could update tasks in real time.
- Centralised panels for status updates across all processes.
- Reduced bottleneck delays by 90%.
- Real-time updates for all tasks across departments.
The Result
90%
Reduction in Bottleneck Delays
Projects delivered on time
We researched and went through case studies of various large scale and successful construction projects from all over the world, integrated their processes into our designs, and developed an application for PlanTech that dramatically improved construction project management efficiency — reducing bottleneck delays by 90% and enabling on-time project delivery.
