McLaren Construction has chosen 360 degree reality capture technology from OpenSpace to be rolled out across its major projects.
Using OpenSpace, McLaren staff and subcontractors will be able to access a visual record of construction sites from any location, simplifying remote progress tracking, facilitating issue management and enabling communication and decision-making. With OpenSpace BIM+, McLaren further aims to empower its teams by enhancing on-site BIM use and improving coordination between the field and the office.
Thomas Flannery, head of digital construction at McLaren, said: “As the firm approaches £1bn turnover, McLaren is investing around £4m over three years in the skills and rigorous systems required for project and business management. These skills and systems will ensure compliance with building safety legislation and give us robust digital information management for all aspects of design, procurement, change and quality control process.
“Following a very competitive tender process, we are pleased to partner with OpenSpace, who align with McLaren’s aspirations of an open and streamlined software stack to help drive efficiency for our customers.”
OpenSpace account executive Lewis Campbell, added: “Working with the team from McLaren on the initial test projects has been a real pleasure, and it’s been fantastic to see our solution get adopted so quickly by everyone involved. McLaren is a real industry leader and an exceptional company, at the forefront of leveraging technology to build better and achieve outstanding results for their customers.”
