The Challenge
Enhance oversight of multiple projects while reducing travel
As business increased, The Wright Group needed a way to manage multiple projects simultaneously. As a small team, the owner wanted clear visibility and better project management to reduce site visits. With multiple projects for high-end brands including Hilton Hotel, Marriott Hotel, Intercontinental Hotel Group (IHG), LaQuinta Hotels, Choice Hotels, Cendant Hotels and Independent Boutiques, the team needed a way to keep clients informed.
The Solution
Peace of mind through remote anytime access
The team used OxBlue solar-powered cameras across multiple states and jobsites, The Wright Group had an easier time accessing real-time information, coordinating with teams and looking out for liabilities.
The Implementation
Preventing errors through visibility
In New Mexico, the cameras revealed that the building's wall framers were two weeks ahead of schedule. This insight helped the team avoid a potential delay by calling in the truss company earlier. In Colorado, workers installing a hotel porte-cochere were not yet aware that the project owner had last-minute modifications. The PM was able to watch the project through the camera and halted work that would've had to be redone.
