Logistics, Coordination, Auditing and Quality Control

Through utilising the latest in digital tracking technology, coupled with our specialist logistics teams and extensive experience in planning and coordination, we are able to control in 'Real Time' every aspect of the Offsite manufacturing process through to on-site assembly and handover.

Site Planning

With extensive experience in the construction delivery of DfMA solutions, we are experts in the development of practical, deliverable construction phase logistics plans which respond to the sensitivities of a projects location and surroundings whilst ensuring the works can be delivered efficiently, safely and to the highest levels of quality. Utilising the latest digital tools, our multi-skilled project teams analyse every phase of the on-site assembly to ensure a robust, transparent logistics plan is communicated to all stakeholders. 

Cranes

A critical factor in the successful delivery of any Offsite solution is the crane strategy and how 'hook time' can be maximised for productive activities and how components can be safely and efficiently offloaded from the delivery vehicle and assembled. Our critical path will always run through the crane activities so for every project, a detailed study is undertaken focussing on crane types, positions, coordination, assembly, dismantling and safe operation. To supplement this approach we are also able to offer our own fleet of heavy lift crawler cranes. 

Programming

Every component and activity is meticulously planned to the minute during the construction phase with the sequence of assembly, the on site methodology for accessing and undertaking the works, the temporary design requirements and the specification are all part of the decision making process when developing the construction programme. BIM models contain key assembly data and are used to communicate and coordinate the days activities within our own assembly teams and the wider project resources. 

Real Time Tracking

Digital Bluetooth tags attached to each structural component allow us to track when each component is in transit, where it is on the journey from the Offsite facility to site, when it arrives on site, when it is installed and when it is 'signed-off' as complete. This 'end to end' digital process gives real time progress data along with creating a fully auditable trail of a components timeline, which is linked to a digital inventory of a components full QA/QC records, all of which is synchronised with a Digital Twin which is linked to our BIM models.
