The Challenge
The construction industry grapples with time-consuming processes and the labor-intensive collection of vital data. Our client had a bold vision: to simplify. They required a solution that accelerated construction proposal development, produced precise project records, and addressed broader challenges within the construction workflow.
Our Path to the Solution
At Algoscale, we orchestrated a comprehensive digitalization effort to build an efficient SaaS platform with clear functionality. Our approach included:
- AI-informed Web Crawler: Our experts began with developing an AI web crawler using computer vision to analyze designers’ specs, identify optimal construction material matches, and provide strategic insights to distributors.
- Building a centralized repository: Next, we built a centralized repository for construction datasheets, continually expanding with new data.
- OCR Technology: We leveraged OCR technology for automated data extraction, streamlining storage and retrieval while eliminating manual data entry.
- Custom Modules: Developed modules to standardize the creation of construction proposals through predefined formats and templates.
- Workflow automation: The comprehensive solution automated workflows while offering a user-friendly interface for construction proposal creation and customization via APIs. It included collaboration and version control features, significantly enhancing overall efficiency.
