Whether you are interested in using the latest project management software, want to know how maximise the use of your gantt charts or interested in how people are using construction mobile apps to manage their projects, you are in the right place!
Our blogs are informative, topical and will give you plenty of food for thought.
Construction projects comprise of many stakeholders; from Clients who initiate the project and define the requirement, to Architects and Designers who give this vision a form, to finally all the expert Consultants and Contractors who help in the physical realisation of this vision.
Anyone who has worked on a construction project knows about the constant “fire fighting” the team has to put up with. Every day brings new challenges posed through uncertainty that has seemingly emerged out of nowhere.
With everyone emphasising on the importance of digitalisation today, are we really sure of what it entails to successfully transition into a digital mode of construction project delivery?
We get asked this question more often than one would imagine. To really answer this concern, we need to dive deep into what Lean claims, and what it actually means to be adopting Lean Construction or attaining Lean maturity.
Amidst the chaos of COVID – 19 that has disrupted the entire world, construction has also been hit hard, with new challenges to continue work on-site.
Construction has taken a huge hit in the current global COVID – 19 scenario. Being a labour-intensive field traditionally, the restrictions imposed on mobility across the globe has positioned a huge speed-bump for the industry.
VisiLean recognises the extent of the disruption brought upon the global healthcare sector as it battles to ensure sufficient capacity to manage increased inflow of patients in the face of the Coronavirus pandemic.
Managing production on construction sites can be a huge challenge. With VisiLean implemented across many projects to improve efficiencies, we are excited to announce that VisiLean can now tackle design workflows as well, making it a truly integrated production management platform!
Covid-19 has created a global chaos, affecting lives of billions of people. While the construction industry certainly did not need a new challenge, it is undeniably having to deal with one.
Project Plans on VisiLean are never static; Tasks are updated live by your project team directly from the site using the VisiLean Mobile App. These updates are reflected in real-time, 24×7 in the Gantt view on VisiLean, for you to track your project in complete transparency.
Set up in 1959, the Bakeri Group is one of the oldest and most trusted real estate companies in India.
ALEC Engineering and Contracting LLC. (ALEC) has signed an enterprise agreement with VisiLean to strengthen its position as an innovative construction leader in UAE and to ensure partnership with one of the best software solutions available.
Everywhere you look across London, major cities and towns you will notice cranes and scaffolding. Construction looks like its blooming, but is it really as good as it looks?
Traditionally, planning for construction projects follows a top-down approach, where a milestone plan drives a master schedule to achieve the target completion date. This plan is pushed down to the site level to dictate the timeline for execution activities.

Howard G.September 24, 2021.Review Excellent - as well as the product, the customer support has been fantastic. ☺Ease of use, potential for it to be a single source of data, phone app. ☹Like to be able to scroll left to right between weeks in scheduler view and the location stays in the same place. Would like to be able to scroll 1 week at a time in phase view. Constraints to be tracked, and identify by associated trade. Unable to "commit" a task for the next week.![monish g.]()
monish g.July 24, 2021.Visilean Review Good ☺Visilean is a very good software for collaborative efforts with a dedicated team working on a tight schedule ☹Offline facility not available. It should be incorporated.![Deron M.]()
Deron M.July 22, 2021.Visilean is the future of construction... ☺Real time updates of the project - Ease of giving updates strait from job site. Mobility of apps and Great customer support and system on-boarding. ☹I don't really have much negative to say, every time we come up with something to improve the system it doesn't talk long and its part of a system update. They are working every day to improve the system.![Aastha B.]()
Aastha B.July 8, 2021.Why should you go with the software Software has a lot of significance in improving a projects performance. My overall experience was really great and the team is really supportive. ☺BIMLean Integration works out easy with the software. It supports LPS of Lean Process. Model and Schedule can directly be imported and linked in the software itself. 4D simulation can be viewed in the software with a proper colour wheel assigned to it defining the work status. Work commitment, collaborative planning, communication and workflow are improved using the software, which helps improve project performance. Different projects constraints such as: space planning, resource planning, equipment positioning, etc. are easily identified. Software summaries the project status with PPC tracking of WWP, reason of variance mapping, constraint summary and generates progress reports with all documents submitted per activity (RFI, Quality Report, Site Photograph, etc.) in one place. It compares the planned v/s actual work at site with visual view addition. It is a handy software and is easy to use with easily accessible data. Software also has a mobile version, helping the data to be tracked from anywhere possible. ☹Overall the software is really great but some points from a designer's perspective could be added into the same.![Bhaumik P.]()
Bhaumik P.July 8, 2021.The Future of Built Environment Good ☺3D BIM, 4D Simulation, Value Engineering, Waste Reduction ☹Everything is okay in the cloud and app system. But what if the project is in a remote location. Network Connectivity for real-time updates is an issue. They should build an offline version of the app.![Agastya M.]()
Agastya M.July 7, 2021.A game changer for real estate projects The experience with VisiLean has been very satisfactory ☺We have been more inclined towards using the mobile app. Using the mobile app is very much convenient on an every day basis. Most importantly the Quality Approval workflow is very seamless. We can convey our work completion by clicking just one button on the mobile app and the Sr. Engineers get notified about the same. When it comes to the Software, it is cloud based and this helps us to access the Software as well. It is just like accessing facebook; you go to the VisiLean website, provide your credentials and boom; you have all your projects with you. The Gantt view in the Software helps us to create our schedules and also import our schedules created on Microsoft excels. ☹Not much cons that our company can think of, but yes; on some instances, when we work in basements where the network connectivity is an issue; it is not possible to provide the updates from mobile app. We have conveyed this to their support team (which is very friendly btw) and they have already committed to deliver it soon.![Keith O.]()
Keith O.July 6, 2021.Graham Construction Very good as I said. It will need to be in bedded more into peoples working habits. ☺Keeps a track of important contractual issues ☹Needs more time to bed into peoples working live's![Josh B.]()
Josh B.July 6, 2021.Great Planning tool ☺The mobile app made it easy to see my tasks only. ☹The web version was a little confusing and hard to navigate for first time users.![Daniel F.]()
Daniel F.July 2, 2021.Visilean review - Best custom service i have ever experienced. - Visilean wants feedback and really listen to it. I am very convinced that Visilean wants to be developed and contiune to improve, and they show it. Ideas and user friendly tips i give in feedback often is implemented in the near future. ☺- Live update on phones. - Low time spent on documenting activities that goes according to planned. - That you make each subcontractor "more" responsible when they need to accept each activities 6-8 weeks before start by making it "ready". ☹- No view to gives you the full overview of the long term plan. (like 12 months ahead). - Todays use of colors. Ready state is good for the planner only, but during planning meeting with all contractors, look
