By GlobalDataAccording to Zukoski, Join takes data from estimating tools and offers them in a convenient manner so that firms can evaluate the impact of pre-construction decisions. For instance, stakeholders can ask “what if” questions to understand the cost impact of an option on their business in real time.
Besides visualization tools, the platform offers timeline and budget planners, and insights based on past performance of projects.
Through a dashboard, the platform provides data in real time, and information for firms to view and take action in case of potential warning signs.
About 50 customers are claimed to have used the platform for healthcare facilities, research centres, housing complexes, etc.
Zukoski stated the Covid-19 pandemic has made construction companies adopt technology and new approaches to work.
“As a whole, the construction industry is slower to adopt new technology, so there is a lot of room for growth with customers.”
The company expects to increase its team size from 52 to 75 by next year.
