The Challenge
Providing best-in-class visibility
With a reputation for carefully curating corporate environments, KDC has worked with the top brands in the country, developing more than 30 million square feet over the last 30 years. The company needed a best-in-class communication and jobsite visibility tool to help easily manage, document and market their projects.
The Solution
Clear communication with strong visuals
KDC routinely uses images from their cameras in reviews, meetings and external presentations. The visuals help better identify and communicate changes with all involved, shedding light on important details. The company says that having readily available videos sets the tone with their prospects, while transparently displaying image galleries highlight the strength of their team.
The Implementation
Transparency with clients and accountability with vendors
Vendors are able to rely on the project’s visual record to defend weather credits and validate deliveries. When severe weather conditions threaten a jobsite’s schedule, KDC uses the easily accessible webapp to filter images and review the true impact of the weather. Clients receive monthly and quarterly reports with the high-definition time-lapses, helping the team clearly communicate key milestones.
The Results
Enhanced brand reputation with professional visuals
Clear documentation of the jobsite helps KDC maintain a strong relationship with their portfolio of industry-leading brands. Construction managers frequently use the photo gallery and comparison tools to highlight work across projects. For KDC, sharing access and visibility with their clients is so valuable and one of the "million ways" they use the cameras. Now, OxBlue cameras are considered a standard for each project.
