A sneak peek into the construction sites of the future

Productivity is an important aspect for construction companies to complete a project within time and budget. 

Time and cost overruns are a function of several factors in the control of the contractors, according to Santosh Rai, Operations Director and Chief Business Officer, HCC. “Our focus is to largely be in complete control of activities, which includes planning, engineering, design and methods that are expeditious and match the available technology for speedy construction. You think, visualise and plan everything for the job site and then devise methods and other procedures in line with the plan.” 

“We ensure that machinery is well-maintained and undertake preventive maintenance so that there is limited downtime, says Hardik Agrawal, Director, Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon.“We schedule our projects to ensure maximum utilisation and sharing common resources on multiple workfronts.” 

Infrastructure projects involve various activities such as excavation, piling, boring, concreting and hauling where productivity can be monitored and improved. Equipment efficiency is key, says V Manivannan, Director-CPE, Afcons; to achieve this, critical aspects involve “equipment selection, skilled supervision, trained operators, preventive maintenance and monitoring.” 

“Productivity is ensured onsite when you put the right person on the right job and give them the right tools,” emphasises Tushar Srivastava, Director: Business Development & Strategy, Capacit’e Infraprojects.
