Connected Construction 2

Successful contractors are employing connected construction technology to track where and when their road surface mix is being made, to predict when it will arrive on site, and to make sure their autonomous paving machinery is ready and waiting for it to arrive. Use pro-active maintenance. Prevent disruption to your project schedule. Track your productivity in real time and make the right decisions. The future is bright and its already here, say three leading experts on machine control.

An ancient Chinese philosopher once said that your plan never survives first contact with the enemy. On a big construction site, machines break down, the weather suddenly takes a turn for the worse, or an accident stops everything in its tracks. Make sure you have the data you need to take the best corrective actions. Use connected construction technology to make that new plan say three leading experts on machine control and connected construction in this, our latest World Highways Roundtable.

Collect as much data as you can on site and get it back to your project management team immediately. If the numbers look “off”, correct the actions in real time and update your working approach on site. You can’t manage what you can’t measure, say three leading experts on machine control and connected construction in this, our latest World Highways Roundtable. The message is simple: plan the work and work the plan. Be smart and adjust as you go along.

Reduce the number of passes needed to get the right surfacing result, minimise and shorten haul routes on site, and find new ways to move materials once rather than twice say three leading experts on machine control in this, our latest World Highways Roundtable. Use modern connected construction technology to balance your work on site and be more sustainable. Planning the workflow, the logistics, and the resources needed leads to better utilisation levels.

The pandemic gave many contractors no choice … they had to find new ways to work remotely and to communicate on screen rather than on site. They adopted connected construction technology faster than ever in order to stay as productive as possible. In this latest World Highways Roundtable on the benefits of connected construction, three leading experts on machine control discuss how their high-tech know-how is being used to keep sites efficient and safe.

Put a young person in a modern excavator today and their eyes light up. In the latest World Highways Roundtable on the benefits of connected construction, we asked three leading experts on machine control technology how the industry can present itself as a cool, and computer-savvy place to work using autonomous machines and on-screen solutions. Simplify usage and be 43% more productive. Get out of the dirt and into a new high-tech world. It’s simple and easy, they say.
