1 MAXIMIZING EFFICIENCY WITH SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS VDC QUARTERLY REPORT SPRING 2019

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY SUITE NING OUR PRODUCTION CAPABILITIES Every day on our jobsites, we load our trucks, toolboxes, and toolbelts with specific hardware that helps us perform the day s tasks at hand. We don t carry only one hammer or just one screwdriver, we carry a collection of tools and equipment that work in concert with one another to get the job done. We keep them organized in a familiar manner so they can be used for the right field application at the right time to drive progress on our jobsites. Just like our physical collection of tools, we also organize and leverage our digital solutions effectively together rather than as individual instruments. Each individual software application has a very specific use case, and alone cannot effectively support the holistic needs of our projects. But together, by combining the strengths of adjacent software applications, we have the flexibility to tailor effective solutions for each project s unique needs. When we can combine our digital tools under the umbrella of a common software provider, we drive efficiency through a common user interface and flatten the learning curve between team members who are collaboratively working together in the same digital environment. In this issue of our VDC Quarterly Report, we are excited to spotlight our digital toolbox and the collection of software applications that optimize efficiency, quality, certainty, early decision-making, and other value-adding solutions on our projects. Rather than making this a series of advertisements that promotes our software providers, we wanted to highlight the ways in which Barton Malow leverages specific software groupings to drive value during preconstruction, construction, and project delivery. We recognize that every organization will leverage unique groupings of tools, but the solutions outlined in this Quarterly Report are what power the first-class communication and collaboration workflows that you know and love about working with Barton Malow.

3 Microsoft Office 365 COLLABORATION FOR ALL The switch to Office 365 brought with it many more tools and improvements than just increased mailbox size. Office 365 is a large suite of tools designed to make collaboration on the cloud easier than ever. Beyond the basics of the familiar Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) being available online, new tools that drive communication efficiency include Teams, Planner, Forms, and Flow. The under-utilized OneNote tool also now works seamlessly with Teams. What do all of these products do? Teams: Customizable, chat-based team workspace. Planner: Create new plans, organize and assign tasks, share files, chat about what you re working on, and get progress updates. OneNote: Capture notes by drawing, typing, or writing. Organize and reuse your notes across all your devices. Forms: Create surveys, quizzes, and polls in minutes. Flow: Create workflows between your apps, files, and data. Power BI: Create actionable, dynamic, and engaging data dashboards to share. When a new Team is created, a Planner, OneNote notebook, and SharePoint Team Site are also created and are available for use by all Team members. All apps are available via the waffle in the upper left corner of any DIRT page. The Office 365 suite aims to enable focused teams of people to work on projects in real time and on almost any device. The Teams app specifically is designed to be a hub for your workday, collaborating with your colleagues in a streamlined and transparent manner. Overall, Office 365 is changing the way groups of people work together, and bringing increased efficiency to the many tasks that must be performed throughout a day, and throughout a project. Teams is your new daily work hub Use OneNote for personal and team notes Planner makes task assignment and management simple

4 FARO SOFTWARE SUITE OPTIMIZING LASER SCAN DATA Barton Malow utilizes FARO laser scanning hardware to capture accurate data in the field. The accompanying suite of Faro Scene software allows us to consume the data and make better decisions on jobs. Faro Scene is a complete workspace creation and manipulation tool. The tool allows you to perform scan registration, filtering, exporting, measurements, VR viewing and the creation of Webshare 2Go data. Faro Scene LT is a free viewer that enables anyone on the project team to view existing scans and workspaces. It has all the tools of the full Scene version without the ability to create or register data. Scene Webshare 2Go is a lightweight and portable solution for sharing scanning data with different project partners. It is a self contained file that requires no software installation or Internet connection to use. It allows for viewing and measurements with limited functionality as compared to Scene or Scene LT. All scan data is acquired through the three FARO scanners owned and operated by Barton Malow.

5 TRIMBLE SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS IN SELF-PERFORM Trimble started as a navigation based company producing hardware like GNNS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers, laser range finders, UAV s, and inertial navigation systems. As the company expanded into the software field, it began acquiring other related products at a rapid pace. They now maintain an impressive catalog of BIM software and hardware solutions. In our VDC Self-Perform team, we use many of these software solutions to very high levels of efficiency. Tekla is used to model resteel, embeds, anchor bolts, formwork, and concrete. It also incorporates layout data for accuracy and location verification. SketchUp is used for logistics mapping and creating custom model objects that can be imported into other software packages. Business Center HCE is used for civil production modeling and generating machine control models for semiautonomous earthwork and pavement equipment. Prolog is used by our CM and Self-Perform field crews for RFI and submittal management. WinEst is used by our various preconstruction departments as their solution for estimating. Our field layout teams use Survey Pro and Spectra hand held units, and our Self-Perform civil crews use Trimble data collectors and on-board machine control units in their heavy dirt-moving equipment. Each of these products performs a very specific task and requires well trained individuals to operate the effectively. We are constantly trying new Trimble packages, and keep an open dialog with Trimble product teams to ensure the best support for our teams. SketchUp Tekla Business Center HCE

6 AUTODESK FOR COLLABORATION CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE Autodesk products are the standard across the AEC Industry, and here at Barton Malow it s no exception. Everyday solutions are being developed using a combination of tools from the Autodesk software suite. Most of todays projects kickoff with a model being shared from our design partners in the form of a Revit model. In preparation for 3D coordination with our construction trades, our field teams create necessary views inside of Revit, we then export those views to be utilized in Navisworks Manage. Navisworks has multiple features designed specifically for view and coordination models, with the clash detective feature being at the front. We can simulate construction with a 4D schedule using the Timeline feature, create model flythrough with the viewpoint animations, and even animate construction equipment and other on-site activities. Many of our projects require some form of reality capture to document existing conditions. Recap Pro enables us to process scan data from our laser scanners and leverage that information in the 3D model environment to aid the coordination and as-built delivery process. We also work with subcontractors who leverage adjacent softwares which require the use AutoCAD (DWG) exports from the model to work most effectively in BIM. Between the scan data and exportable formats, we ensure that the 3D environment includes proper coordinates and origin points to ensure models stay aligned and accurate. These early prepartory processes enable downstream activities such as trade coordination, prefabrication, modularization, 4D scheduling, logistics visualizations, virtual & augmented reality, and deliverables that add value long after construction is complete.

7 ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE FOR ENHANCED DELIVERABLE VISUALIZATIONS The Adobe Creative Suite may not be the first software platform that comes to mind when thinking of the digital components of the construction industry, but it plays an important role in the advanced visual communication deliverables that our Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) team offers. What s so beneficial about the Adobe Creative Suite is that it offers many different solutions through various programs. Photoshop has extraordinary capabilities to alter and edit images. This is useful for editing site plans for logistic images. Illustrator is a tool that is used to create vector shapes (scalable) and annotations that supplement site logistic plans and create content for animations. After Effects is a cinematic visual effects and motion graphics tool that creates movable annotations over animations. Premier Pro is a video editing tool that can compile multiple animations and images into one deliverable. Each program plays an important role in helping us create more advanced visuals that present information in an effective and eye-catching manner. While we are only scratching the surface of these powerful tools, our goal is to create better graphics to help support teams to win new projects and deliver enhanced visualizations for project teams to facilitate better communication.

8 PDFCONVERGE SAVES REAL PROJECT HOURS HOW TIME IS SAVED USING PDFCONVERGE FOR RFIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Four thousand, seven hundred eighty-six. That was the number of RFIs (requests for information) predicted by a member of the design team just months into a $500M design-build project with Barton Malow Company. With the massive amount of data entry required at the time to process RFIs and submittals, team members were left tethered to their computers, leaving little time to solve problems in the field. That all changed when one creative project engineer decided to challenge the way we processed document control, creating a solution we call PDFConverge. Today, PDFConverge has grown from a tool created for one project to a company-wide solution offered by FlyPaper Technologies creators of Sherlock and Protest Dailies.

9 THE CHALLENGE Current document control processes can be time consuming and inefficient. Project engineers spend a majority of their day either copying and pasting information from pdfs or s into webbased document control programs, or training subcontractors how to use those systems themselves. This results in each submittal or RFI taking up to 10 minutes to process. With PDFConverge, a simple right-click on a completed RFI or submittal pdf template automatically tracks the information in a web-based document control system for you, in just a few seconds. In addition to saving time, PDFConverge ensures that all required information is entered the same on every record. THE RESULTS PDFConverge facilitates a streamlined pdf-based workflow: From subcontractor, to construction manager, to A/E team and owner, all without logging in to a document control database. Subcontractors are now only required to fill out a pdf form. Project engineers are now able spend their time reviewing RFIs and submittals for accuracy, in lieu of engaging in data entry requiring countless clicks within a document control solution. Owners and architects also no longer have to learn a new document control system, as all information is generated in automatic, interactive notifications. PDFConverge works in the background, so every member of the team can continue communicating the way they already are. No more onboarding, just pdfs and s. THE TAKEAWAY In short, PDFConverge takes the busy work away from the document control process and allows the project team users to get back to building. PDFConverge is now being successfully used on the majority of Barton Malow projects. Project teams are more efficient, and jobsite interactions are now personto-person, instead of person-to-computer. Taking that $500M project into consideration, processing all 4,786 estimated RFIs without PDFConverge would have meant 720 extra hours of time devoted to document control. Instead those 720 hours were spent performing quality control and ensuring success in the field, bringing that high-profile project to a fantastic close.

10 MODEL-BASED LAYOUT Model Based Concrete Layout EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The concept of Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) is to build as much of a project as possible in a virtual environment. By building virtually first, problems are identified and solved, and building information is purified so that it is suitable for construction. When a building is accurately assessed and problems solved in the model environment before construction begins, not only can may field issues be avoided, but value can be added to the project. In concrete modeling, there are three main elements: Formwork, rebar, and layout. Each workflow creates additional valuable byproducts. In layout, these are line/lift drawings and layout point data. Line drawings include only concrete geometry. Lift drawings include concrete geometry and any embedded items (plates, angles, anchor bolts, waterstop, etc., everything except rebar). A layout point is a 3-D coordinate (x,y,z) and some identifying information (a unique number and description).

11 THE CHALLENGE On a typical self-perform project, concrete is modeled and detailed for rebar fabrication. Shop drawings are created for installation of the bar. The project s field engineer is then tasked with locating the concrete structure in the real-world space, setting control lines, creating and staking layout points (e.g. corners of a slab or a center of a column) and breaking down the building into easily digestible chunks for different craft labor to build from. Typically, this is done with control lines and field generated 2D drawings and sketches. To increase the efficiency of this process, the self-perform modeller will stack the layout workflow and move constructible concrete geometry generation upstream of rebar. The concrete geometry is coordinated and detailed to within ACI tolerances and then represents exactly what will be built in the field. Layout points and (line/lift drawings) are created from the same source of information THE RESULTS By stacking the workflows, the value of the VDC workflow increases and the constructible information stays in one place (the live model). The project field engineer is then able to spend more time building and less time figuring out what to build. Additionally, two levels of checks now exist. The VDC engineer generates the concrete model with supporting information and the project field engineer serves as the final check before any concrete is placed. THE TAKEAWAY VDC is an internal service and the project team is our customer. The additional value of concrete layout and drawing creation will reduce the burden put on the layout engineer and create a collaborative support system that will increase productivity and reduce errors.
