DESCRIPTION
Construct is a web and mobile application that helps Brazilian construction companies be more efficient by centralizing job site information and communication. Construction professionals constantly pass complex paperwork back and forth on large, mobile teams. However, each time a new issue emerges, all plans need to be reassessed, changed and communicated. On a team with so many moving parts, communication bottlenecks occur everywhere resulting in 5% of material construction costs to be a result of incorrectly installed work each year. Construct enables builders, engineers, architects and sub contractors to collaborate in realtime, create reports instantly, mark up digital floor plans and quickly document every field decision so that teams can focus on the things that really matter.TRANSCRIPT
