viAct’s AI-powered 360° Progress Tracking Solution Ensuring Greater Transparency in the Workflow

A construction project has multiple tasks going on simultaneously. Progress tracking here is very crucial to make sure that the each task is being carried out as scheduled and according to the budget. Moreover, progress tracking allows teams to see if they need to make any adjustments to achieve their goal.

However, progress tracking is not a very easy thing to do. Even today most of the construction companies are seen to rely on manual methods of progress tracking that fail to provide them a real-time progress status of their projects, including other loopholes, making the process even more complicated.

Thus, this blog is an attempt at highlighting how viAct’s proprietary scenario-based AI-powered construction management software helps 360° progress tracking, thus ensuring better transparency in the workflow and reducing rework in the jobsite.

Why Automated Progress Tracking?

Automated Progress Tracking involves the use of modern technologies such as AI and vision intelligence for progress tracking of the construction jobsites with instant and quick calculations and minimal human interference. Automated Progress Tracking helps in accurately generating completion percentage, installation quantities, rate of work and estimated completion dates of projects/tasks by leveraging the power of AI and other modern technologies. 360° photo documentation technology is generally used for the purpose of automated progress tracking.

The importance of automated progress tracking in the construction jobsites can be understood better from the following comparison chart between Manual & Automated Progress Tracking:

Moreover, viAct’s integration with Autodesk Forge® and Autodesk Construction Cloud® has made it possible for the clients to view their construction jobsite in a 3D space. Also the clients can now have an additional benefit of comparing their day-to-day jobsite status with the planned design, thus helping them detect any wrong/improper installation and take urgent steps to correct the wrongs while there is still time.

Further, this solution also eases construction documentation by recording the captured data in the integrated dashboard. Thus, with this tailor-made solution the stakeholders can have a well-tracked and fully documented jobsite, altogether.

Who can be benefitted from viAct’s 360° Progress Tracking Solution?

viAct’s Progress Tracking Solution is, in general, helpful for all the stakeholders involved in a project as this construction progress management system brings all the project stakeholders on the same page about progress. However, talking more specifically, the following construction stakeholders can be prominently benefitted from this solution:

• Owners
