Combat Rising Costs & Winter Construction Challenges with BIGView Surveillance
As inflation continues to impact material costs and winter approaches, construction companies face heightened challenges in managing costs, timelines, and site security. Rising prices, unpredictable weather, and holiday disruptions can create a perfect storm for project delays and cost overruns. In response, companies are implementing new strategies such as refined budgeting, accurate cost forecasting, and negotiating contracts with contingencies for price fluctuations. But there’s another vital tool in combating these challenges—BIGView Surveillance Trailers.
BIGView offers more than just site security; it helps protect your bottom line through increased oversight, enhanced safety, and proactive cost control.
Navigating Fall and Winter Construction Challenges
1. Combat Holiday Time Theft During the holiday season, time theft becomes a significant issue. Workers may cut corners or leave early, leading to productivity losses. BIGView’s real-time monitoring keeps crews accountable, ensuring they stay on task, which helps prevent costly delays and keeps labor costs within budget. With remote access to multiple sites, supervisors can easily track attendance and progress without being physically present.
2. Secure Your Site From Holiday Theft Vacant job sites during the holidays are prime targets for theft. BIGView’s motion-triggered spotlights, PTZ cameras, and asset tracking provide 24/7 surveillance, significantly reducing the risk of theft. Any suspicious activity is instantly reported, allowing for immediate action and preventing costly security breaches.
3. Address Weather-Related Equipment Protection Fall and winter weather can damage equipment and materials left exposed, leading to expensive replacements or repairs. BIGView allows site managers to remotely monitor conditions and make informed decisions on site shutdowns, equipment storage, and additional safety measures to protect assets and avoid costly downtime.
Improve Workplace Safety and Health Compliance
Post-pandemic health protocols and safety standards are more important than ever. BIGView helps enforce these measures by monitoring PPE usage and identifying crowded or non-compliant areas, reducing the risk of illness or accidents. Real-time monitoring also helps minimize workers’ compensation claims, medical costs, and productivity loss.
Ensure Regulatory Compliance
With evolving regulations around building codes, environmental laws, and safety standards, staying compliant is critical. BIGView creates a clear audit trail of daily site activities, allowing companies to monitor job site conditions and worker behavior, ensuring compliance with safety and environmental laws and avoiding fines or costly project delays.
Boost Productivity Through Enhanced Oversight
Winter brings shorter daylight hours and more hazardous conditions, often slowing productivity. BIGView’s high-definition cameras and remote access allow project managers to oversee multiple sites from one location, ensuring that crews remain productive, safety protocols are followed, and projects stay on schedule.
Protect Your Bottom Line
BIGView Surveillance trailers help construction companies protect their investments by:
- Preventing theft and vandalism
- Reducing the risk of accidents and health-related downtime
- Ensuring compliance with ever-changing regulations
- Keeping workers productive and projects on track, even during holiday disruptions and unpredictable winter weather
