PROGRESS TRACKING

Monitor site progress in real time, directly on site

With the NEXT-BIM Augmented Reality solution, overlay the 3D model onto reality and instantly identify what has been built and what remains to be done. Move from declared progress to verified progress.

Why monitor progress using Augmented Reality?

Today, progress tracking on construction sites remains largely estimated. Progress percentages are often declared approximately.

With the NEXT-BIM Augmented Reality solution, progress becomes visible, measurable and shared directly on site.
The BIM model overlaid onto reality makes it possible to instantly see what has been built, what is in progress and what remains to be done, at 1:1 scale.
Each model element is associated with a clear status and phase (e.g.: installation / insulation / finishing).

NEXT-BIM instantly calculates a real progress percentage, by zone, by lot or by phase, based on installed elements. Progress tracking no longer relies on declarations but on usable visual evidence in real time for planning, coordination and payment management.

Design phase

 

On site

Progress tracking: Better traceability, control of budgets and schedule.

Maintenance phase

Progress tracking: Control of schedule and planning.

How does it work?

Workflow of a progress tracking session with NEXT-BIM

NEXT-BIM enables real-time progress tracking using augmented reality, without complex preparation. Here are the key steps of the process:

Step 1 – Overlay the 3D model onto reality

LNEXT-BIM technology automatically aligns the 3D model with the real environment, without markers or manual calibration. Alignment is continuous. The overlay remains reliable and precise throughout the visit, even while moving on site.

Step 2 – Visualize site progress

Compare installed elements on site with the BIM model overlaid onto reality to verify progress status on site.

Step 3 – Qualify progress

Define custom progress indicators adapted to your operational needs. Highlight installed objects to update their progress status. Automatically calculate progress percentage by zones and lots.

Step 4 – Export a progress report

Generate a report including progress percentages in Word or BCF format.

ANNOTATION TOOL

ANNOTATION TOOL Create your annotations in Augmented Reality easily. Thanks to the NEXT-BIM Augmented Reality solution, discrepancies become immediately visible, making it possible to create clear annotations without interpreting plans. Each annotation gathers photos, comments, measurements and technical data, directly linked to BIM objects. 1. Georeferenced annotations Annotations are attached to a BIM object or [...]

MODEL / REAL ALIGNMENT

MODEL / REAL ALIGNMENT Overlay the BIM model onto reality, automatically and continuously. Instantly overlay your BIM models onto the real environment, at 1:1 scale in Augmented Reality, without markers or preparation. The BIM model superimposed onto reality becomes a field control tool to understand and anticipate construction, detect defects and secure execution in real [...]

VISIBILITY FILTERS

VISIBILITY FILTERS Filter to instantly visualize what you need. Control faster. With NEXT-BIM visibility filters, dynamically display or hide objects by categories, phases, packages, systems or scenarios. Simplify model reading, instantly display what you need and reduce errors. 1. Timesavings Instantly display only what matters to you. 2. Improvedreadability Unnecessary objects are hidden, improving understanding. [...]

MEASUREMENT TOOLS

MEASUREMENT TOOLS Measure with precision. With NEXT-BIM, take measurements directly in Augmented Reality. Whether from real to real, real to virtual, or virtual to virtual, obtain reliable and usable dimensions without additional tools. 1. Multi-contextdimensioning Instantly take your measurements on site, in the model, or measure deviations between reality and the model. 2. Timesaving No [...]

TECHNICAL INFORMATION TOOL

TECHNICAL INFORMATION TOOL Access the technical information linked to the 3D model Instantly consult all technical information from your BIM model (BIM properties, PDFs, etc.) directly on site. In one click, a clear and structured panel displays all available data. 1. Contextualized information Information is accessible directly on the related object. 2. Fewererrors Each decision [...]

CHECKLISTS

CHECKLISTS Inspect your objects in series in Augmented Reality. With NEXT-BIM checklists, quickly inspect lists of objects in Augmented Reality. A 3D guidance system leads you from object to object to check, validate or invalidate in one click. 1. Time saving Accelerate your inspections thanks to intelligent 3D guidance and validate the object in one [...]

Link your BIM elements to phases, statuses and measurable indicators to obtain a reliable, structured progress rate automatically calculated. 1. Better schedule management Progress tracking in Augmented Reality provides [...]

DYNAMIC OBJECT MOVEMENT

DYNAMIC OBJECT MOVEMENT Move 3D objects dynamically in Augmented Reality Move your BIM objects dynamically in AR to control volumes, measure differences between reality and the project, and organize your space directly on site. 1. Fast & reliable decision Validate on site the real feasibility of layouts, without interpreting drawings or assumptions. You instantly know [...]

Project Manager

VINCI Construction

“Thanks to the NEXT-BIM solution, I was able to bring my digital model onto the construction site to detect non-compliance and report it to the relevant stakeholders. Tools such as the checklist or measurement features help streamline the process and collect more data in a single site inspection. This solution has truly convinced me, and its evolution continues to meet my expectations.”
