[edit] Advantages of time-lapse and project management cameras
[edit] Showcase work
A construction time-lapse video can showcase a contractors work, also now able to live stream, post on social media keeping stakeholders up to date and engaged. This can also help build brand exposure, to reach a wider audience, and enhance marketing / sales.
[edit] Empower project managers
Having the right image at the right time allows the progress of a project to be shared, showcasing project milestones, with immediate access to footage where and whenever it is needed.
[edit] Own the evidence
Don’t just win disputes, avoid them! Owning complete footage of an entire project can help with health and safety incident analysis/archival, potential QS disputes, potential sub-contractor disputes, and progress management. Your footage will also allow everyone to be on the same page for site meetings.
