Why Technology is Critical in Keeping Accurate Records
In days gone by, multi-million dollar construction projects relied documents that were entirely handwritten and stored under lock and key. With the continued maturity of technology solutions, all that has changed.
There are a number of reasons technology is critical to accurate record-keeping, five of the most prevalent are listed below.
1. Accurate data capture
Accurate, real-time, electronic data capture throughout the construction project can reduce the risk of errors and provide a reliable source of information for dispute resolution.
2. Improved document management
Easier, reliable, and more secure storage and team usage of project-related documents reduces human error and minimises the chances of documents being misplaced.
3. Improved visual display
Visual aids supported by technology and accurate records can help explain complex technical issues in a more easily understandable manner.
4. Basis for evidence-based analysis
Accurate records allow us to identify timelines, critical events and understand the impact of delays. All told, the reliability of technologically aided record-keeping helps us find clarity and helps our clients get results.
5. Reliable Audit Trails
Digital platforms can provide time-stamped audit trails that record every action and ensure the integrity and reliability of data even under intense scrutiny.
