Architecture, engineering and construction firms are under constant pressure to deliver projects on tie, on budget and with uncompromising quality.
Success in the fields of architecture, engineering and construction depends on coordination between offices, job sites, subcontractors and clients … all while managing complex schedules, compliance requirements and growing cybersecurity risks.
Unfortunately, many firms still run on siloed systems, outdated servers and disconnected communication tools. Project delays, miscommunication and data loss can add risk to every job.
Projex IMC provides AED and construction firms with a modern, AI-powered foundation that connects people, projects and processes … creating seamless workflows from design to delivery.
Key Challenges from a Technology Perspective
- Fragmented Communication — Field crews, project managers, engineers and office staff often use separate systems for calls, e-mails and file sharing, creating miscommunication and delay.
- Document and Version Control Issues — Blueprints, CAD drawings, permits and contracts frequently circulate in multiple versions, leading to costly mistakes and rework.
- Compliance and Safety Requirements — Firms must maintain OSHA, environmental and local compliance records, yet manual processes and disconnected storage create risk during inspections and audits.
- CyberSecurity Risks — Proprietary designs, project bids and client contracts are lucrative targets for cyber criminals. Multiple, disconnected IT/security tools leave gaps that can be exploited.
- Scalability and Project Growth — Adding new sites or subcontractors often requires costly IT setup, new hardware and lengthy onboarding processes. slowing growth and flexibility.
