McLaren Construction says that the company required a solution capable of supporting its growth.

The ability to access a visual record of construction sites from any location will simplify remote progress tracking, facilitate issue management, and expedite cross-team communication and decision-making, says McLaren Construction.

With OpenSpace BIM+, McLaren Construction aims to enhance on-site BIM utilisation and improve coordination between the field and the office.

Thomas Flannery, head of digital construction at McLaren Construction, comments, “As the firm approaches £1 billion turnover, McLaren is investing around £4 million over three years in the skills and rigorous systems required for project and business management.

“These skills and systems will ensure compliance with building safety legislation and give us robust digital information management for all aspects of design, procurement, change and quality control process. Following a very competitive tender process we are pleased to partner with OpenSpace who align with McLaren’s aspirations of an open and streamlined software stack to help drive efficiency for our customers.”
