Fusion Building Systems is an offsite manufacturer of light gauge steel panelised superstructures. The company has become the first in the UK to use exclusive interactive site management software which has been developed by the Danish company, Dalux. The company have already got this site management system up and running on three of the company’s developments in Durham, Leeds and Birmingham.

The Building Solutions business made the decision to invest in the Dalux Field app after seeing the unique way that the platform allows projects to be managed and snagging issues that can be raised and recorded in 3D, while still on the site. Fusion Building Systems are practicing advocates of the modern methods of construction and the advances in technology that are associated with them.

The design team at Fusion were originally looking into an alternative Dalux product, the free to download BIM Viewer app. However, when the company looked into this product closer, they realised that there were a range of different options that are available from the Nordic software business. From this closer exploration, the company came across the Dalux Field and were impressed immediately with the capabilities on offer through this service. The company were impressed with how this software allowed site managers to directly communicate issues with developments while also leaving an auditable trail of communication.

The offsite manufacturing company design in Revit and have been using BIM technology for a while now because of the clarity speed and insight that can be gained by the process as well as the accountability for the design. When using Dalux, a site manager is able to simply mark their position on a site and open up a 3D BIM view of the project while also offering a range of accurate information immediately about any issues that have been found.
