save time and money
with XSite® workflow

It is normal to come up with a situation on a construction site where planning has to be updated to suit new-found data. It could be an essential pipeline, that can not be moved, or another underground obstacle.

The following timelines display the differences in delays and delivery times in a simple way.

The two timelines have a common startingpoint.

”Excavator on-site detects an undocumented pipeline during cut. The operator has been adviced that all of the existing pipelines have to be preserved”
TRADITIONAL WORKFLOW
Day 1
Data gathering Operator informs site manager, who calls surveyor. Surveyor arrives from another site and surveys the pipeline
Day 3
Data sent to designer Gathered data is edited and sent to designer and the update need explained
Day 5
Design update finished and approved Design is sent to printing and is ready to be delivered to the site
Day 6
Site manager gets the revisions Paper copies arrive to site and the manager starts to distribute copies of the revision to other parties
Day 7
Surveyors redo stakes After he updates survey data to his devices. Old stakes based on outdated plans are removed
Day 8
Excavators start working According to updated plans, with new stakes and copies on paper revisions

Updating the plans
with a traditional workflow took
eight days of work.

Let’s explore the same situation, when using model based workflow.

Xsite® WORKFLOW
Day 1
00:02 hours
Data gathering Operator does the surveying with the machine’s bucket, using the machine control system, takes a few photos and the site manager informs the designer
00:10 hours
Data sent to designer The collected data is automatically synchronized to the Xsite MANAGE cloud service and is available to the designer
04:00 hours
Design update finished and approved The new design is uploaded to the Xsite MANAGE, in ready-to-use format
04:01 hours
Site manager gets the revisions Machinery gets notification of updated plans and old versions are replaced
04:05 hours
Excavators start working According to updated plans, and gather as built data as they go

Updating the plans with a
model based workflow took
four hours!

Total time: TRADITIONAL WORKFLOW 8 working days
Total time: Xsite® WORKFLOW 04:05 hours

The RESULTS

The traditional way took days, when model-based process took just hours. The traditional method could be rushed by a couple of days, but the difference would still be substantial.
