Problems To Solve
Material Availability and Equipment
Delays
Many construction companies have struggled with project delays due to inadequate material tracking and equipment status monitoring. In Canada, more than 80% of companies have experienced project delays attributable to extended wait times for materials, leading to cost overruns and timeline extensions that have significantly impacted project profitability and client satisfaction.
Outdated Construction
Practices
The construction industry has been hindered by deeply ingrained traditional practices that have relied on manual processes and obsolete technologies. With the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation stating that 5.8 million homes need to be built by 2030 to restore housing affordability, yet the current pace putting the country on track to construct just 2.3 million homes, these antiquated practices have created substantial barriers to meeting critical housing targets.
Lack of Predictive
Maintenance
The absence of advanced predictive maintenance capabilities has led to increased equipment downtime and elevated maintenance costs. In Canada, residential building construction costs have increased 1.0% in the fourth quarter of 2022, while non-residential building construction costs have risen 1.6%, reflecting the financial impact of reactive maintenance approaches that have disrupted operations and inflated project budgets.
