Using Technology to Simplify Communication when Building a Custom Home
Are you curious about smart home technology? In this segment of Ask The Expert, Amir Karimi of Archia Development Ltd. answers some questions about using technology to plan and monitor a custom build, renovation project, and/or a custom home building timeline.
Q: How do you use technology for your project control system?
A: In addition to some common software and applications, the team at Archia Development uses a construction management application. It connects everyone involved in a project, and through the application, members of a team can access and update schedules, share photos, place orders, and assign tasks to each other, in real time.
Q: How do you help owners monitor and check the progress of construction?
A: Archia provides the owner with the username and password for the construction management application. Once they log in to the application, they have access to the photos, logs, and schedules. They can have access to all of this information even if they are not on site.
Q: How long does it take to build a home?
A: It really depends on what’s being built, but a rough estimate for a 5,000-square foot house, for example, is 13 months. **please confirm that the expert said “13 months.” I found it difficult to hear, min 1:45
