Urban Analytics
Technology solutions tailored for the AEC and Real Estate business.
Overview
Urban Analytics is what I call a suite of technology solutions specifically selected to support AEC(Architecture Engineering, Construction) or Real Estate. These are full managed and best used as an end-to-end solution that provides a comprehensive understanding of the business while streamlining operations and raising revenue. It is the digital equivalent of a master planned development.
Problems
I have worked in the AEC world for most of my career. I have seen many issues through the years. These include manual processes that are error prone, systems the don't talk to each other aka data silos, inaccurate data, poor websites built by amateurs that don't convey your real value, inconsistent project descriptions that inhibit proposals and ballpark estimates for hours instead of really digging into historical numbers.
Solutions
These solutions are based on 6 pillars.
Custom Development
Develop a compelling website for your own marketing or to support community planning and economic development projects. Build custom tools that are tailor made for your business that aren't addressed by off the shelf software.
Integration
Integrate data together using the apps your already use. This solves the problem of data silos and your data being spread across apps that cannot talk to each other.
Automation
Automation solves the problem that many firms experience where processes are heavily manual and are prone to error. The automation runs on a schedule and catches any errors.
Observability
Observability enables you to see how your data flows through your organization. Where it came from, how it was changed and if any errors occur it generates alerts.
Data Quality
Data quality ensures that data is consistent, accurate and usable in both transactional systems and reporting.
Interactive Dashboards
Interactive dashboards that consolidate data from many systems to give a cohesive view of the business using metrics important to you.
