Custom software for construction companies and design firms
Keep projects aligned.
LDS develops custom software for construction companies and design firms. It connects project information and existing systems so decisions draw on a shared view of progress.
- Track changes
- Avoid repeated entry
- See project deadlines
Track design changes.
Illustrative workflow
A revised drawing arrives by email. The project manager needs to review its effects on costs, deadlines and delivery before the teams continue working.
Record the change
Assign the message and drawing to the relevant project.
Prepare the review
Bring together open questions and affected tasks.
Approve the change
The project manager reviews the effects and approves the updated information.
Share the update
Pass approved information to the design and site teams.
Possible starting points.
See project progressSearch emails, spreadsheets and specialist software before each project meeting.
An option to assess: bring deadlines, pending decisions and responsibilities into one project view. We first establish which system holds the authoritative information and how current each item needs to be.
Organise project documentsAssign drawings, reports and change orders to the right project and version individually.
An option to assess: classify documents using defined criteria and send uncertain cases for review. The document types and quality of the available information determine whether rules or AI are useful.
Review project costsPrepare approved changes and recorded costs separately for the project manager.
An option to assess: show available information with its source in a shared overview. Confirmed costs remain distinct from those still awaiting review.
Between trades
An open question needs closure.
An uncertainty on site can affect several trades. A shared task view can keep the response from getting lost in messages.
- 01
Record the place and question
The issue identifies the affected area and the decision needed before work can continue there.
- 02
Assign responsibility
The relevant specialist receives the question. Others can see that this part of the work remains open.
- 03
Separate answer from completion
A technical answer closes the question. Completion of the work on site is confirmed as a separate step.
Schematic workflow between trades, not an account of delivered client work.
See our own product work in constructionAssess value first.
We examine where delays, repeated data entry or missing information affect projects. This gives the proposed development an economic basis.
Clarify the goal
What needs to improve in the organisation?
Assess value
Compare current effort, expected impact and running costs.
Plan the route
Use, connect or build according to the real need.
Keep improving
Launch, support and adapt to actual use.
Define access first.
Before implementation, we define which project information is used, who may see it and which changes require approval. Data sources, processing and responsibilities are documented.
Data handlingBefore getting started.
Can our existing systems be integrated?
We examine the available interfaces, data formats and access rights. We then establish which information can be transferred, what needs to be developed and whether the effort is justified.
What role does AI play in construction software?
AI is considered where it offers additional value, such as classifying documents or preparing a report. We assess its suitability using the intended document types. Technical judgements and approvals stay with the designated people.
Who looks after the software after launch?
LDS provides maintenance and further development within the agreed scope. Before launch, we define responsibilities, incident support and future development. The organisation’s goals guide later changes.
