Seamless Data Integration for Construction Operations
Industry: Construction and Infrastructure
Technology Stack: Microsoft Azure.NETDalux
Challenge
Implenia AG, a leading European construction and infrastructure services provider, operates across multiple countries, managing vast amounts of project data. In Norway, engineers struggled with inefficient data transfers from their field application, Dalux, to various tools such as SharePoint, Power Platform, and an Azure-hosted database. This manual process delayed reporting, invoicing, and document management, especially for large-scale infrastructure projects like tunnels and bridges.
The key challenges were:
- Automating data extraction from Dalux to eliminate manual inefficiencies
- Ensuring secure and reliable document transfers across multiple platforms
- Enabling scalability for future automation of compliance and reporting tasks
Solution
Implenia partnered with LogiqApps to develop the Dalux Integration Hub, a cloud-based platform that automates data extraction and seamlessly integrates it with other systems, including SharePoint and Azure databases. The project included:
- Automating documentation generation and transfer to Implenia's management systems
- Creating a secure and reliable integration platform for handling critical project data
- Laying the foundation for future automation in HSEQ (Health, Safety, Environment, and Quality) compliance reporting
Key Results
- 5,000+ hours saved annually during the pilot release in Norway
- Scalability across EMEA operations, streamlining processes for hundreds of engineers
- Enhanced system reliability through secure and automated document transfers
- Optimized workflows, reducing time spent on manual data management
By scaling this solution across its operations, Implenia AG has transformed its data management processes, improving efficiency and setting the stage for further automation in compliance and reporting.
