THE CHALLENGE

Dondlinger Construction needed a way to provide its project managers with the ability to monitor projects and track progress without having to call their site superintendents every hour for progress reports. Additionally, they needed to be able to remotely verify that subcontractor trades were on site when expected, check self-performance and daily productivity, and observe work activities for safety compliance.

THE SOLUTION

Having initially employed Sensera Systems’ PTZ cameras for their ability to record time-lapse video for marketing purposes, Dondlinger discovered that the cameras were highly useful for remotely monitoring daily progress for their out-of-town projects. The easy-to-use platform provides their project managers with real-time information about the daily activities on site. So, instead of being reactive based on daily reporting received from the field the following day, they can be proactive with real-time progress tracking and the ability to monitor subcontractor activity.

“We have had long-standing success with Sensera, and it’s worked well for our needs. The technology and technical service support has been superior to others.”

THE PRODUCT

MC78 and PTZ

The MC78 full-featured jobsite camera produces 8MP images with live streaming and DVR edge recording for more extensive projects. PTZ cameras are designed for advanced user remote site monitoring that allows live streaming with the ability to pan/tilt and zoom in real-time. Sensera’s SiteCloud software and service integrates with most BIM software, which allows for streamlined workflow in Autodesk Construction Cloud and PlanGrid.

With Sensera Systems, Dondlinger’s project managers get instant access to productivity, weather conditions, subcontractor presence, and more, and can make calls, redirect, and inquire about things they observe in real-time. This increases efficiency by reducing travel time to sites, enabling project managers to stay in their offices where they have access to more resources.
