Real-Time Construction Project Progress Tracking and Reporting in a Simple Augmented Reality (AR) Mobile App

Company Highlights

  • A way to easily and accurately measure project status in real-time

  • The ability to take corrective action on issues when they arise

  • Easy-to-use technology that digitizes the manual, paper-based reporting process

  • Accurate information from the jobsite to improve labor utilization

Innovative Construction Technology (ICT) began as a shared vision of co-founders, Tim Duncan and David Francis. They merged their passions for construction and technology by recognizing the need for innovative productivity tools that construction teams use on the jobsite. ICT is a B2B SaaS company providing a solution that automates a manual workflow for project status reporting in the construction industry. Its ICT Tracker tool enables real-time, accurate reporting from the construction jobsite on progress being made by all contractors that use 3D models for project installation.

In an industry noted for extremely poor budget and schedule performance during large building projects, ICT offers a way to improve work crew productivity by providing management with better visibility on their efforts so they can intercede earlier to address challenges that arise in project installation.

The easy-to-use ICT Tracker tool helps mechanical, electrical and plumbing subcontractors to capture, using an iPad and ICT Tracker’s Augmented Reality (AR) technology, the actual progress of their work against the BIM plan. By digitizing traditional paper reporting processes, ICT Tracker automates and accelerates the reporting of the project status to enhance response time to project implementation challenges that arise. Overall, it enables construction managers to more effectively track labor on the jobsite. ICT is out to change the construction industry with innovation and tools to measure productivity so that all team members can leverage information, gather insights and anticipate impacts for the capital project life cycle.
