How TRA Facilitated Collaboration Among Stakeholders

The Project

Thomas Roszak Architecture (TRA) embarked on a residential building project in downtown Chicago, with the goal of not only completing a state-of-the-art residential facility but also engaging the local community throughout the construction process. TRA partnered with TrueLook to utilize their advanced camera solutions to monitor the construction site, facilitate real-time communication, document progress, and ensure security.

The Challenge

Community engagement during construction projects can be challenging due to restricted site access, the need for constant updates, and ensuring public interest. TRA needed a solution that would provide:

• Real-time visual access to project progress and challenges.
• Enhanced communication among project stakeholders.
• Effective visual documentation to identify and address security breaches.
• Engaging marketing materials to showcase progress and attract community interest.
• Additional security measures to deter potential threats and ensure site safety.

The TrueLook Solution

TrueLook provided TRA with a comprehensive camera solution that included features such as custom time-lapses, motion-based security video recording, and real-time remote monitoring. These features enabled TRA to meet their project goals effectively.

• Custom Time-Lapses: Captured high-resolution images at intervals, creating compelling time-lapse videos documenting the project’s progression.
• Motion-Based Security Video Recording: Detected and recorded motion, providing valuable footage for security purposes.
• Real-Time Monitoring: Enabled stakeholders to access live feeds from the construction site, allowing for immediate updates and decision-making.

The Results

TRA gained a competitive edge by utilizing TrueLook’s real-time monitoring capabilities, allowing them to stay updated on site conditions and activities, and respond quickly to any issues.

TrueLook’s solutions enabled seamless communication among TRA’s construction manager, contractors, foremen, and marketing team. This real-time information sharing ensured everyone was on the same page and could make informed decisions swiftly.

TrueLook’s Intelligent Security feature captured video footage of any detected motion, significantly reducing after-hours security concerns.

The time-lapse videos and live camera feeds were shared with the public, keeping the community informed and engaged with the project’s progress. This transparency fostered a positive relationship between TRA and the local community.

Conclusion

By integrating TrueLook’s camera solutions, TRA not only achieved its project goals but also enhanced community engagement and facilitated better collaboration among stakeholders. The use of real-time monitoring, custom time-lapses, and motion-based security recording proved invaluable in showcasing the project’s progress and ensuring its security. This case study highlights the effectiveness of TrueLook’s camera solutions in promoting transparency, security, and community involvement in construction projects.
