Concrete construction, known for its complexity and stringent quality requirements, faces significant challenges in data management. Typically, concrete quality is evaluated post-delivery, with crucial results often taking up to 28 days to ascertain. Combining and correlating this data with other relevant concrete pour information in a simple, efficient manner is imperative to maintaining quality and keeping a project on track.
To revolutionize how concrete quality data is shared and utilized, Bridge Check Canada Ltd., a prominent provider of concrete inspection and testing services, has partnered with binni, an innovative platform optimizing contractor operations in concrete construction. Bridge Check Canada Ltd. always seeks efficiency and latest advances in technology and used innovations offered by DASK Solutions to make it happen.
This collaboration marks a pivotal advancement in data transparency and operational streamlining within the construction industry. The partnership and mutual philosophy about data integration was put to the test with remarkable success at the South Forest Hill Residences condominium project located in Toronto, ON jointly developed by Parallax and Westdale Properties with construction management by Greenwin CMS Inc.(“Greenwin”)
Project Overview
The South Forest Hill Residences project is a residential complex that sits in the heart of Toronto. It consists of two towers, 21 and 20 stories, respectively and will utilize approximately 22,750 cubic meters of concrete to construct.
To help manage concrete placements effectively, Greenwin utilizes binni Concrete, which aggregates, organizes, and distributes relevant concrete pour information for each pour in real-time. Bridge Check Canada Ltd. serves as the third-party testing agency, conducting field and lab quality control testing to ensure concrete performance meets standards.
The Need
Efficiently correlating quality data from Bridge Check Canada Ltd.’s integration made possible by software from DASK solutions, with pour information was crucial for Greenwin to stay on schedule and maintain production standards. Recognizing this challenge, binni and Bridge Check Canada Ltd. envisioned enhancing operational synergy through interoperability between their platforms.
The Solution
To address the demand for enhanced efficiency and visibility in concrete performance, binni and Bridge Check Canada Ltd. developed an integration leveraging API technology. This integration automates the transfer of field and lab quality control data from Bridge Check Canada Ltd. to binni, eliminating manual data aggregation for Greenwin. Now, all relevant data is accessible through a unified platform, empowering informed decision-making throughout the construction process.
Impact and Benefits
This collaboration not only simplifies concrete operations management but also enhances transparency and efficiency, ultimately delivering superior outcomes for clients and partners.
Wes Morrison, COO of binni, emphasizes the significance of this integration, stating, "Our partnership with Bridge Check Canada Ltd. underscores our commitment to driving value to our clients by making it as simple as possible for them to interact with the data that matters to them. This partnership exemplifies our dedication to advancing transparency and efficiency in concrete construction, ultimately delivering better outcomes for our clients and partners."
Savio DeSouza, CEO of Bridge Check Canada Ltd. highlighted the significance of this integration stating “DASK Solutions software integration with binni has changed the way we do business! From the ease of use for our field technicians, to the accurate recording of laboratory test results, to timely report distribution, to Client ease of information access, this integration has revolutionized the concrete testing industry. Our collaboration with binni has transformed our operation into a truly digital platform, and has differentiated us from our competitors.”
The integration between binni and Bridge Check Canada Ltd. represents a forward-thinking approach to optimizing concrete construction operations, setting a precedent for industry innovation and excellence.
