Problem
Construction projects are often plagued by design-related risks, such as incomplete designs, scope gaps, missing information, and discrepancies within construction drawings. Identifying these issues manually is time-consuming and prone to error, leading to costly mistakes, disputes, and project delays.
Solution
FIRMUS offers an AI-powered platform that automates the analysis of construction drawings to identify design-related risks early in the preconstruction phase. The platform's computer vision algorithms scan hundreds of drawing sheets, detecting errors and scope gaps that might otherwise be missed. By providing actionable insights, FIRMUS enables general contractors, architects, and developers to make informed decisions, mitigate risks, improve bidding accuracy, and enhance overall project quality. The cloud-based tools facilitate team collaboration by allowing users to manage identified issues, assign tasks, and track resolution progress.
Target Audience
FIRMUS primarily serves general contractors, construction management firms, architects, and developers involved in the preconstruction phase.
