When Sortland Entrepren\u00f8r began construction of the SKREI Museum <\/a>in Kabelv\u00e5g \u2013 a national project of great importance to Lofoten and surrounding areas in Northern Norway \u2013 having a reliable system to ensure structure and oversight was essential. With multiple disciplines involved, the project places high demands on traceability across documentation, progress tracking, and financial reporting. This is where the combination of Interaxo Project<\/a> and Oculo<\/a> comes in; proving to be highly valuable for the day-to-day work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Marit Anette Eilertsen and Lars Christian Lang\u00f8, Project Managers at Sortland Entrepren\u00f8r, tested the Oculo integration for the first time during the SKREI project. So, we spoke with them about how they’ve been using the tool, and the value it brought to the project.<\/p>\n

\n

“We wanted a system that gathers everything in one place, making it easy to review what’s been agreed on, when the agreement happened, and why we landed on a particular decision. Oculo also allows us to see where we’ve been inside of the building, and what was done there \u2013 at any given time throughout the project.\u201d

From on-site images with Oculo to data-driven project insight with Interaxo<\/h2>\n

Oculo is a visual, digital field tool that uses AI to combine images from the construction site with BIM models and technical drawings. All it requires is for one person to walk a certain route through the building with the Oculo camera mounted on their helmet. Then, the entire project team gets access to an up-to-date 360\u00b0 overview of each floor \u2013 directly in Interaxo Project. This allows the team to easily monitor progress, identify changes and potential deviations, and add virtual annotations to areas that require follow-ups. And the best part? Not as many people need to travel to the construction site anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the SKREI project, Oculo has proven particularly valuable for linking quantity control and changes to the correct drawing version. The project is carried out in accordance with NS 8405 \u2013 a Norwegian standard contract governing traditional design\u2013bid\u2013build construction projects \u2013 and decisions are largely based on drawings and specifications.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything goes through Interaxo. Drawings, change notifications, clarifications \u2013 nothing goes via email. That makes it so much easier to trace the basis for decisions after the fact,\u201d Marit shares.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIf questions arise about which drawing formed the basis for construction, we can easily find and refer to the correct drawing \u2013 date-stamped and supported by image history from Oculo. That gives a lot of reassurance both during construction and after handover.\u201d
Lars Christian Lang\u00f8, Project Manager at Sortland Entrepren\u00f8r<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Actively utilising visual documentation \u2013 supporting both forward planning and progress history<\/h2>\n

Oculo has proven highly useful for both cost periodisation and progress tracking during the construction of the SKREI Museum. While information such as material purchases can be traced through invoices, Oculo provides an accurate picture of how far production has actually progressed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen it’s time to periodise and report on finances, we can easily go back and see where we were at a given point in time. Or whether we had built a specific wall yet, or not, for example. That provides an incredbly precise picture of both progress and costs,\u201d Marit explains. The percentage of completion is updated by period, helping the project managers maintain control over both progress and ongoing costs. \u201cWe always have an accurate overview of the project\u2019s financial status at hand \u2013 from beginning to end,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

With Oculo, the construction phase is documented on an ongoing basis \u2013 from the starting point where internal walls are still open to when the floor plan is fully completed. “<\/span>We have full visibility of what the constructions actually look like behind the walls,\u201d Lars says. \u201cIf we take the choice of floor covering as an example, this is something we can easily look up in Interaxo; including when a decision was made, when materials were ordered, and when the job was carried out. If questions or disagreements ever arise, all the information we need is right there \u2013 easily accessible and clearly documented with time-stamped images from Oculo.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Less travel, reduced costs, and more time in return<\/h2>\n

Before Oculo, everyday work on construction projects was largely characterised by manual photography using private phones or cameras. Combine that with time-consuming storage, sorting, and sharing of images \u2013 and there was still no guarantee that the documentation needed later on would actually be available. \u201cAlthough we took a lot of pictures before, as well, we often found ourselves missing the particular images we actually needed later on. Now that we have Oculo, there’s no need to worry about that anymore,\u201d Lars tells us.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not only does Oculo save time on tasks like image documentation; it automates processes such as anonymising the people that are visible in the images. According to Lars and Marit, internal collaboration processes are also far more efficient now that they can show progress directly in the model, supported by the Oculo images.<\/p>\n

\n

“During steering committee meetings, we pull up the Oculo model and show how far we’ve actually come, rather than just describing it in our own words. The same applies to our contact with architects and consultants who are located elsewhere in the country. The project has become incredibly transparent because of that.”
Marit Anette Eilertsen, Project Manager at Sortland Entrepren\u00f8r<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Oculo: An investment in the future of construction projects<\/h2>\n

There is no doubt about the value that Oculo added to the development of SKREI Museum \u2013 both during construction and after completion. \u201cIf questions ever come up about what’s behind a wall, what kind of studs were used, or how technical installations were routed, we simply refer to the Oculo images,\u201d Lars explains.<\/span><\/p>\n

The project managers are certain about one thing: they want to keep using Oculo in future projects \u2013 especially bigger construction projects such as new-builds. They see potential to make even greater use of the tool\u2019s functionality. As Lars concluded: \u201cI think we have only scratched the surface here. It’s clear that there’s so much value to gain by implementing Oculo in construction projects. As project managers, there are certain situations we hope never occur, of course \u2013 but if something ever were to happen after handover, Oculo is extremely helpful to have.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
