Precision Volumetrics: Because “Close Enough” is Expensive
Dirt and aggregate are the largest variables in any construction budget. Without precise data, you are at the mercy of truck tickets and “best-guess” surveying. Our high-density 3D measurements replace estimates with an indisputable digital record of your site’s profitability.
The Source of Truth for Earthwork
- Eliminate the Guesswork: We convert millions of data points into precise cubic yardage reports for stockpiles, trenches, and grading.
- Optimize Logistics: Know exactly how many trucks you need and where material is located, slashing idle time and fuel costs.
- Real-Time Progress Tracking: Monitor site balance weekly to ensure subcontractors are adhering to the plan before errors are buried.
Field Report: Identifying the Discrepancy
On a recent large-scale development, a prime contractor was billed for a massive volume of aggregate delivered and spread across the site. While the truck tickets suggested the project was on track, the visual progress on the ground didn’t match the invoicing.
The Intervention: By comparing the current 3D topography against the initial pre-disturbed survey, we calculated the exact volume of material actually added to the site.
The Result: The data revealed a significant shortage compared to the subcontractor’s billing—a discrepancy caused by inaccurate truck counts and inconsistent reporting.
The Bottom Line: Because we had been performing consistent weekly inspections, the contractor held a clear advantage in the dispute. There was no room for debate; the chronological data trail provided an undeniable “source of truth” that sided with the contractor. This resulted in substantial savings and prevented a massive budget overrun during the most critical phase of the project.
Stop Disputes Before They Start
When you have a 3D digital twin of your site, you don’t have to argue. You have the data. We provide the documentation you need to keep subcontractors aligned, verify every yard of material, and protect your margins.
