How Shawmut Design & Construction is minimizing risk to construct with confidence.

Description

How Shawmut Design & Construction is minimizing risk to construct with confidence.

Join AGC MA to learn the new ways Shawmut Design & Construction is minimizing risk using Smartvid.io and TradeTapp, an Autodesk Product. Whether trying to qualify subcontractors or benchmarking projects approaches to social distancing or mask wearing, technology enables them to build with confidence. They leverage TradeTapp and BuildingConnected to analyze subcontractor risk; they then can develop advanced risk profiles to enable a streamlined process for qualification and share financial benchmarking, key metric calculations, capacity recommendations and safety performance history. During these unprecedented times construction teams are facing new challenges with COVID-19 risk management. Smartvid?s AI, nick-named Vinnie, can create COVID-19 metrics for social distancing, mask wearing and other aspects of a COVID-19 risk reduction program. With their BIM 360 integration, you can analyze data in as little as 90 seconds.
 
Join us to hear firsthand from Chief Safety Officer, Shaun Carvalho about his perspectives on how these technologies combine to help minimizing risk in normal times and now during the COVID-era.
