"Leveraging a constructible process was instrumental in helping us achieve our eciency goals." — Matt Hedke, Manager of Self-Perform, Barton Malow. IDENTIFY YOUR OBJECTIVES Every transformation initiative should start with clear objectives that tie to larger company goals. This will ensure that the initiative receives the attention, support, and focus needed. The outcomes of Connected Construction become even more valuable when they align with larger strategic initiatives and economics within the company. Like any objective, the more specic you can be, the better. Quantify the objectives in terms that are clearly measurable and easily remembered. Some examples include maintaining a zero-incident safety goal, cutting material waste by 50% over a 24-month period, or in the case of Barton Malow, doubling eciency by 2024. Barton Malow makes strides to double eciency by 2024. 1 A full-service general contracting rm with clients across the U.S., Barton Malow is taking a constructible BIM approach using Trimble technology.

This proactive method gives all stakeholders complete visibility so they can coordinate, adjust or modify project aspects before arriving on a job site. By minimizing workow ineciencies, all stakeholders across the entire project lifecycle can achieve a nal result that's built to its best potential and creates a competitive advantage. Building o of their strategic initiative to double eciency by 2024, Barton Malow's self-perform division has achieved: • A 15% increase in concrete rebar productivity. • Improved accuracy and enhanced knowledge transfer between stakeholders. • Better analysis of BIM models to uncover "clashes," streamline workows, and bring greater transparency to all building projects.
