At Mortenson Construction we self perform concrete work, as well as other construction activities, which enables our project teams to control a critical component of our construction schedule that we call The Critical Path. Our objective is to improve our virtual design and construction (VDC) integration by increasing the efficiency of our construction system design VDC and integrated work planning (IWP) processes to drive higher value to our concrete planning and execution process. In partnership with Mortenson, CAD Technology Center has developed a plug-in to Revit software that will yield higher efficiency to our issued-for-construction sheet drawings by eliminating waste in our tedious, manual, sheet-generation tasks. The new concrete pour sequence tool will automate the process and reduce the time and effort needed to deliver high-quality drawings to our field crew (which relies on our output to put work in place). We want to spend less time with non-valuable activities and more time integrating with our concrete crews to drive value and revenue to our projects.

Have you ever noticed how some people can break anything? Unfortunately, there's a lot fewer who seem to be able to fix anything. It's not luck. The fixers just think differently about problems. But there’s often a method to their madness. What seems like voodoo magic is really a variety of techniques and skills and thinking processes that can be learned. You might not ever be as good as that office "expert,” but you can get better. You can learn how.
