Technodom (2024)

Data designed for Deadlines

The data landscape

Technodom is a 20-year SMB operating in the construction sector, partnering per project with diverse local and international contracting partners and institutions.

A huge amount of diverse data is generated throughout construction project phases, shared, agreed and acted on by the different contracting parties. Accuracy, timeliness, and clarity are essential in the exchange of this most-often mission-critical information.

Complexity, intensity, vulnerability

In this fast-changing, deadline sensitive and data-critical environment, accessing, selecting and exchanging up-to-date (and historical) data and documents across a complex network of players is essential and full of risk:

  • Multiple parties “touch” the data, each with distinct data management and communication protocols and habits
  • Stakeholders like Technodom, experience difficulties finding the right files quickly, ensuring the right versions are shared and updated
  • Contractual obligations, ongoing specification changes, and activity information create a flood of data straining data management resources
  • Storage systems are cluttered with folders, sub-folders, time-related data, active, duplicates, redundant and historic files.

Big picture consequences can include delays in project timelines, building works being affected by out-of-date or incorrect information, unanticipated financial exposures, and unproductive levels of stress (and conflict) generated by problematic data management.

Streamlining tools

Starling’s deployment had a fast turnaround at Technodom, from the team adopting the tools easy and productively, and to securing immediate “low hanging” value benefits:

  • Gaining full oversight of their data assets through Starling’s Scan & Index capability
  • Tracking modifications in specifications and activity timing through Version control, thereby working confidently with reliable information
  • De-cluttering the team’s data workspace, and customized user interface views
  • The ability to “interrogate” their data and gain forensic insights and operational efficiencies
  • Improved, error-free files and document exchange and collaboration across their stakeholder network.

In summary, a more data-savvy, motivated team, greater agility and professionalism networking with its partners, and an improved ability to deliver on its project commitments and deadlines today, and with planning future projects.
