Why Construction management ?
–High turnover ( $$$)
–Industrial safety ( Safety is No.1)
–Recovery and Insurance ( disaster recovery , property restoration, Insurance claims)
–Multi players ( owner/ employer/ subcontractors , employer, government, industrial safety committee)
–Rich Data ( plan, templates, sheets, photos, videos)
There are plenty of construction project management systems or templates available. The paper sheets or electronic text data can be created, published and stored easily by current PC or Laptop. Photos were no longer a issue since the wide spread of the digital point-and-shoot cameras.
Videos are turning to be the real pains here. why ?
- Power supply. Let’s face it – digital cameras are infamous for draining battery life. From snapshooters to professionals, everyone dreads that little flashing red light. Sometimes there is no stable power at jobsite and you are required to move these cameras around.
- Camera setup and frame. You need to hire the cameramen or outside company to do these. You workers with gloves on are your last choice.
- Video editing. This is the biggest nightmare. File transfer takes HOURS everyday. let alone those video editing and post processing.
- Video playback. It’s never ending story. Fast forward could be too slow(takes forever or too fast( miss your target). Once you find your target. The pause button may just “blur”the still image from the video(H.264 problems)
- Video storage : too fat to store unless subcontracting a cloud service
