Document work performed
A robotic layout station doesn't just place layout points, it can also collect
measurement data on the work performed. When you have the ability to
document your work, you reduce the need for change orders or rework later
because the model stays aligned with the as-built conditions. The robotic total
station also facilitates better communication with the design team to resolve
issues quickly and speed up decision making.
With a record of the work performed and why, including any changes to the
original design made in the field, you can provide a quick and thorough response
to any concerns that call your work into question. You can effectively provide proof
of work, demonstrating your professionalism and safeguarding your reputation—
and you'll get paid faster to boot.
Improve productivity and job performance
A robotic layout station allows you to lay out positions on the jobsite with just one
person instead of a traditional team of two. And because anyone on your team can
learn to use the tool in just a few days, they can quickly realize the benefits of an
automated, intuitive tool that improves their accuracy and efficiency.
Not only do you cut your layout labor requirement in half when you use a robotic
layout station, you can be exponentially more productive as well. Compared to
traditional manual layout, you can expect a 300% increase in points laid out per
day and an 87.5% decrease in cost per point.

When your productivity improves, it has a positive impact on the project and your
entire business. Better management of your resources creates significant time
and cost savings, helping you complete projects faster and more profitably.
Mismanaged paper trails routinely spur
disagreements between owners and contractors
on such matters as construction progress, change
orders, and claims management.
