  • Infrastructure projects are the backbone of modern society. From transportation networks to energy grids, these endeavors keep our communities running smoothly. However, with the initial excitement of planning a new bridge, road, or utility system, it’s easy to overlook some crucial hidden costs. These can significantly derail your budget and throw your project timeline into […]

  • Industrial facilities, by their very nature, handle a variety of potentially hazardous materials and processes. This inherent risk necessitates robust fire safety protocols. Traditional fire safety measures, while crucial, can be limited in their ability to predict and prevent fires. However, advancements in real-time mapping technology are revolutionizing industrial fire safety by offering a proactive […]

  • New York City, the most populous city in the United States, faces a growing threat: flooding. Rising sea levels, increasingly severe storms, and outdated infrastructure all contribute to a costly problem. While the iconic skyline and bustling streets attract millions, the city is particularly vulnerable to flooding due to its low-lying coastal areas. This vulnerability […]

  • Colleges and universities across the country are facing a growing challenge: aging infrastructure. With limited budgets and ever-increasing demands, it’s more important than ever for campus facilities managers to have a clear understanding of their physical assets.   Traditionally, this information has been stored in paper files, spreadsheets, and the memories of institutional veterans. This […]
