Acrest holds the construction company in Delhi list so far for the engineers brand in the construction work. If you’re in the construction business, you may have cringed when you saw this title. Over the years, maybe you’ve gotten used to the delays, the workarounds, going over budget and past deadlines. It’s what happens in an industry full of human beings. Maybe you’re being dragged kicking and screaming into the vortex of technology that’s overtaking the design and construction industry.

Or, if you’re new in the business, your impression may be that construction coordination is dysfunctional and so far the top construction companies in Delhi are served by Acrest. As you digest this list, keep in mind that the technology exists today to solve many of these issues.

1.) Poor or inadequate coordination is the best that’s achieved on construction sites.

 2.) If the construction schedule is too tight or doesn’t allow for changes in labour availability and churn, pressures of meeting a deadline can result in faulty work.

3.) There is a lack of understanding about how day-to-day construction coordination should be achieved.

4.) Identifying strategic activities and potential delays while ensuring the timeliness of all work are the most important coordination steps in construction.

5.) Construction coordination should provide continuity from planning to engineering, resolve issues quickly, and ensure the contractor is accountable to the client.

6.) Design changes, errors and omissions as a group are the major cause of rework in construction 3 This is despite the fact that the technology exists to identify, record and resolve errors more efficiently than ever before.

7.) The right training can reduce costs of a construction project over time by increasing productivity and decreasing the likelihood of mistakes and errors.

8.) Safety, quality assurance, procurement support and field document control all need to be part of construction management.

9.) 18% of warranty claims are due to improper quality and safety training and tracking of workers

10.) Integrating coordination – like time and cost visualization – at an early stage of the construction project is key to the success of a project.

11.) Adding technology to a construction company without training on it, is like buying “easy to assemble” furniture without the instructions.

12.) A work environment that doesn’t encourage effective teamwork can actually create adversarial relationships, with a significant negative effect on productivity.

13.) There are companies who offer incentives for cooperative team members (ie. contractors) to catch errors and report them, referred to as “shared pain and gain.” The alternative is staying quiet about errors to avoid penalties.

14.) Using cloud technology instead of paper-based workflows can result in a 65% or greater increase in productivity on construction projects.

15.) More than half of rework claims are due to inaccurate field data, and a quarter are due to late deliveries or the wrong concrete, steel prefab windows or mechanical equipment. The proper software can give workers access to the latest changes, mark ups, RFI responses and issue resolutions.
