Tender simulations
The method statement, made watchable — so an evaluator sees the thinking instead of reading about it.
4D Simulation
Crane reach, delivery windows, temporary works, the week the facade meets the scaffold — every one of those is a decision, and every one is cheaper to get wrong in a simulation than on site.
We don't document the schedule. We improve it.
A construction animation shows you the plan you already have. A planning-driven simulation tells you the plan is wrong in week 34 — while there is still time and no money spent.
The console
This is the working shape of every study we deliver: the sequence on one side, the numbers that move with it on the other. Drag the week, or let it run.
Bars in solid red sit on the critical path. Move one and the simulation re-sequences everything downstream of it — which is the whole reason to build the model before the programme is frozen.
Core philosophy
If a study cannot change a decision, we don't make it. The work below exists because someone needed an answer before committing to a method, a crane, a price, or a bid.
The method statement, made watchable — so an evaluator sees the thinking instead of reading about it.
Sequence, resource curve and site setup aligned to the price you are actually submitting.
Competing methods modelled side by side and compared on duration, risk and cost.
Zoning, phasing, work fronts and hand-back — the shape of how the job will actually be run.
Gate capacity, delivery windows, laydown, hoisting strategy, traffic management, waste routes.
Reach, radius, load charts, over-sail, tandem lifts, climbing sequence and dismantling.
Compound layout evolving by phase, not one drawing pinned to the wall for two years.
Falsework, propping, edge protection and access modelled in time with the permanent works.
Float found and re-spent where it earns something, instead of sitting at the end of the bar.
Every activity checked against the space, the access and the trade it hands over to.
Why early 4D matters
Every issue found in simulation is an issue not found by a foreman with forty people standing behind him.
Space, access and trade-stacking conflicts surface as soon as the sequence is modelled — not on the day two crews arrive at the same slab.
The high-consequence moves — heavy lifts, road closures, tie-ins, diversions — are rehearsed until the method is boring.
One shared picture that a client, a planner, a site manager and a subcontractor all read the same way.
Evaluators score the method statement they understood. A sequence they can watch is worth more than a page they skim.
Board approvals, stakeholder consultations, neighbour engagement — all easier when the impact is visible in time.
The simulation becomes the baseline that progress is measured against, week by week.
Precast against in-situ, top-down against bottom-up, two cranes against three — decided on modelled evidence.
Options presented as a comparison anyone in the room can judge, in the meeting where it gets decided.
Construction intelligence
Six inputs, one model. Change any of them and the sequence, the curve and the site plan all move together.
Revit and IFC models arrive with the element breakdown the programme needs — by zone, by level, by pour, by trade. Where they don't, we build the breakdown; that mapping is most of the work and all of the value.
P6 or MSP, linked activity to element, so a re-baselined programme re-runs the simulation the same afternoon rather than restarting it.
Quantities carried from the same model produce the cash-flow curve beside the sequence — 5D that agrees with the 4D because both read one source.
Deliveries, gates, hoists, laydown and haul routes modelled as time-bound objects. Congestion shows up as a collision in the model, not a delay on site.
Cranes, MEWPs, piling rigs and concrete plant with real reach, real load charts and real setup times — so the study can be trusted for a lift plan.
Reusable, validated sequence patterns — jump form, top-down, unitised facade, modular plant rooms — adapted to the job rather than invented per project.
Showcase
Each frame below is a slot waiting for the real project. The layout does not change when it arrives.
A model and a schedule are enough to start. The first thing you get back is a list of the weeks that will not work.
