Unified Communication Platform for International Railway Joint Venture

Overview

This case study shares how an International Railway Joint Venture set out to find a powerful estimating solution that would also integrate with a project controls system so that they could have one platform of communication. With ARES PRISM, they were able to have estimating, project controls, and planning data all in one centralized location resulting in reduced time to complete tasks from days to hours and consistency in delivery with common coding structures.

ARES PRISM

Challenges

  • Three contractors coming in with their own practices and systems
  • Meeting specific client requirements
  • Disintegration between estimating, project controls, planning

Solution

Implement an estimating tool that:

  • Fits the estimators requirements
  • Integrates with project control platform
  • Is compatible with BIM models
  • Creates one platform of communication
    Available in the cloud

Results

  • Time savings
  • One platform of communication
  • Consistency in delivery with common coding structures
