Leveraging visual documentation to avoid rework

在美国国家海洋保护区的海滨悬崖上建造最先进的环境科学校园时，1888年创建的总承包商，斯威纳顿, leveraged多维斯塔的视觉文档服务to capture construction milestones and regular progress throughout this complex state-funded build.

Swinerton的项目经理Jeff Stephenson最初计划利用Multivista满足该项目的进度摄影要求，但在整个过程中发现了重大的额外好处24-month project.

Avoiding rework and destructive verification delays

由于多用途设施包括实验室和学校人员办公室，除了进度照片，Multivista的MEP Exact-Built®service was procured to capture the critical in-wall systems in each room before coverup.

“Each lab and office in the building required wall-hung cabinets, so proper backing was crucial for the stability of the casework install,”斯蒂芬森解释说。“During the casework install, the owner’s representative was away on vacation and, upon their return, they wanted to make sure that a number of important rooms had the backing installed per plans.”

由于每个实验室的重要性，所有者需要视觉确认安装了衬纸。斯蒂芬森转向项目的进度照片provide the owner the assurances they needed.

“我没有放慢施工过程并拆除新鲜绘制的干墙，而是使用Multivista的进度照片来显示有关房间的时间流逝 - 从墙壁框架安装到最终油漆，斯蒂芬森继续。“The photos clearly showed the backing installed at the proper locations.”

“I estimate approximately15,000美元[13,300欧元]返工节省通过避免要确认备用安装所需的破坏性验证 - 更不用说减轻该返工的时间表的影响了。”

斯威纳顿（Swinerton）利用视觉记录避免在此后不久对同一项目进行返工。

“Our project was on the coastline of the Pacific Ocean, which exposed all building elements to a corrosive, salt-water atmosphere, and our inspector noted some rusting on some exposed steel on the jobsite. We removed the noted rust, and the painter moved forward painting the steel,”says Stephenson.

当检查员返回项目现场并质疑拆除生锈时，斯蒂芬森展示了检查员Multivista的约会型和位置指数图像在拔出生锈后的第二天被捕获的位置指数图像。

“As a result of the photos, we did not need to stop the painter’s progress,”斯蒂芬森解释说。“I estimate rework savings of approximately12,000 USD by avoiding the need to strip and repaint证明锈蚀的钢被清除了。”

激光专注于构建

With remote project stakeholders involved, providing regular project updates was critical. Multivista’s team of construction documentation specialists captured approximately12,000 progress and milestone images，这使Swinerton得以share real-time construction progress没有绑定关键资源。

“拥有Multivista也至少每周节省了我们的PES，在整个项目的过程中拍照并将其上传。我估计节省10,000 USD in salary time在项目的生活中，”说明斯蒂芬森。

“So just on these three items, oursavings total almost 40,000 USDand that doesn’t take into account the amount oftime we saved being able to navigate the site virtuallyby pinpointing exact locations based on your project mapping.”
