The pace of construction today is faster than ever. Minute-by-minute teams make decisions regarding schedules, budgets, plans, designs, deliveries and more. Collaboration and transparency of information are essential to successful project delivery.

Tools like Revizto, a cloud-based software application designed to share real-time data, are a game-changer. Easy access to accurate information leads to better decision-making and client satisfaction. Design and construction teams, clients, trade partners and field crews plan out construction on a single, unified platform.

Revizto enhances team transparency and accountability. Through it we identify project issues, assign them to team members, and track statistics on their resolutions. Using this data, we can ensure coordination completion and determine expected prefabrication dates for onsite project installation. Our teams can get ahead of the curve from day one and stay there throughout the project.

Bringing model fabrication data, drawings and commentary together for review in one location increases speed to action and reduces issue resolution timelines. Bottlenecks present in traditional approaches are eliminated.

Utilizing Revizto allows all stakeholders to contribute in real time and have more control over the project's outcome.
 
The team's ability to leverage technology is a huge benefit for clients. Understanding and planning for new technology with the help of our C.D. Smith Virtual Design + Construction (VDC) department enables us to adopt best practices for efficient project delivery.
