Increasing Your Return On Investment Through Scope Certainty
Founded by a construction executive and an architect with a master’s in data science, Augmented Construction (AuC) helps project teams make better building decisions through smarter data.
We specialize in Virtual Design & Construction (VDC), combining BIM, laser scanning, and field coordination to reduce risk and create project clarity from concept to closeout.
Our team brings deep field experience and architectural precision to every project, helping owners, designers, and contractors build with confidence.
Using 360-degree videography and LiDAR, we digitize your project, creating cloud-hosted access to your project.
Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) allows you to understand the carbon impact of your design project.
More than just a BIM sweatshop, we are the human face that helps you utilize tech in the most effective way possible for your project. We have the high-level expertise to produce accurate laser scans and translate them into precise 3D models.
When you need to accurately understand and document your building’s existing conditions, whether it is to ensure a strong foundation for a new design, confirm a design’s feasibility before or during construction, or work on a project with complex building systems that require multiple team members to coordinate their efforts, our Scan to BIM services may be the right tech solution for your project.
Our team of professionals offers full-cycle design and construction support throughout your project.
We know what it’s like to be on the other side of the table, and this perspective enables us to understand and meet our clients’ needs.
It depends. Everyone needs scope certainty at different phases in the project life cycle, which is why we work with owners, architects, engineers, general contractors and specialty contractors. EVERYONE benefits from our expert services.
We’ve seen the industry adopting BIM workflows across a wide variety of projects. The opportunities unlocked by a BIM process for scope certainty, risk reduction, and asset management make the cost-benefit analysis a no-brainer. One might be surprised how many affordable housing projects, market-rate housing, adaptive reuse, retail, and office projects benefit financially from our expertise.
This is a common misconception. BIM and VDC execution begins with the owner and the design team. Augmented Construction ensures that the BIM process has defined deliverables and leverages the process with powerful and effective design quality reviews. We have a perfect track record of paying for ourselves through scope certainty by reducing design and construction risk.
This is exactly why Augmented Construction exists. We fill skill gaps to ensure the right VDC tools are deployed and provide real value for all project stakeholders. We don’t just consult on best practices; our team integrates directly with design and construction teams to deliver results through reality capture, BIM modeling, design and trade coordination, and accurate digital twins. We AUGMENT the team with VDC expertise where it’s needed most.
As an independent, third-party VDC manager providing value across both design and construction phases, we are always project-first. Traditional contract silos often make effective BIM and VDC workflows difficult without an independent consultant. Many of our clients come to us after failed BIM-driven efforts, realizing they needed Augmented Construction as their BIM champion and single source of truth for scope certainty and trade coordination.
We’d argue that you can’t afford not to adopt what is becoming industry best practice. The ROI from running a BIM- and VDC-enabled project often far exceeds the cost of hiring the Augmented Construction team. In fact, the savings from improved scope certainty, reduced risk, and streamlined coordination typically outweigh the investment many times over.
