Acres Is The Future Of Construction
This month, time may have moved backwards, but at Acres, we’re always leaping ahead. Our commitment to innovation and excellence in technology positions us at the forefront of construction in British Columbia. This dedication to progress is not only transforming our work but is also making it iconic across the province. How, you might ask?
Have you ever put a project out for tender, only to be overwhelmed with countless proposals? This process can become costly and time-consuming, especially as economic pressures and material prices continue to rise. Our team, however, has found a better way!
We are using advanced drone technology equipped with LiDAR, to achieve a level of precision that revolutionizes the bidding and planning process. From the skies, we can measure vast areas of land with incredible accuracy, providing exact data on ground contours and other details before a project even begins. This approach eliminates guesswork in planning—no more unexpected adjustments due to sudden changes in terrain—resulting in smoother timelines, reduced costs, and unique insights that others can’t match.
However, LiDAR is just one component of our technology toolkit. We’ve invested in cutting-edge Trimble machinery that delivers unparalleled accuracy in earth-moving processes, bringing precision to the field in ways that were previously challenging to achieve. In our offices, technicians use advanced CAD programming to model projects down to the smallest details, allowing us to anticipate and solve potential issues early on. AI plays a key role as well, processing and reviewing documents to save valuable time and boost accuracy. And with all our programs fully cloud-based, we deliver efficient, accessible services that keep projects moving smoothly. Acres is the future of construction moving forward.
Making It Known
Our commitment to innovation hasn’t gone unnoticed. Recently, Acres received the award Excellence in Technological Innovation from the Prince George Chamber of Commerce where you can read more here.
In addition, we also received an award from the Northern Regional Construction Association for Construction Excellence earlier in 2024. The only thing left is our Kelowna Office, which has been named a finalist for Technology Innovator of the Year. Check it out here. We’re ready to keep pushing boundaries, setting new standards, and leading the way in shaping the future of construction.
