Running a successful fabrication shop requires more than skilled labor and quality equipment. Today’s competitive environment demands data-driven decision-making to keep projects profitable and on schedule. Without visibility into performance, it’s easy for small inefficiencies, such as material waste or delayed spools, to add up and erode margins. Tracking the right fabrication shop metrics is […]
10 Tips to Accelerate VDC and Prefab Throughput
Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) and prefabrication have changed how contractors plan, coordinate, and deliver projects. Yet many teams still face bottlenecks: misaligned drawings, slow spool generation, manual updates, and disconnected workflows. These challenges hinder productivity and make it more difficult to meet accelerated schedules. With the right tools and processes, you can dramatically improve […]
