Introducing AI-powered design modeling capabilities to the construction industry, revolutionizing how projects are designed and executed.
At ENG, we are always looking for ways to drive efficiency and accuracy in construction projects. That’s why we are excited to announce our partnership with Augmenta, a leading AI technology company, to bring automation to electrical design modeling.
This collaboration represents a major advancement in how electrical subcontractors can approach their design work, offering faster, more accurate results while minimizing risk and reducing costs.
Why This Partnership Matters
The construction industry has long faced challenges when it comes to keeping up with technological advancements. With over $13 trillion in market value, the sector is still hindered by design and coordination errors, leading to wasted time and increased costs.
Studies show that up to 20% of a construction professional’s time is spent fixing mistakes that originated during the design phase, while 6% of building costs are wasted in similar rework.
This is where the ENG and Augmenta partnership comes into play. By combining our world-class expertise in BIM modeling with Augmenta’s state-of-the-art AI technology, we are bringing to market a solution that will streamline electrical design and set new standards for efficiency and accuracy.
How It Works
Augmenta’s cloud-based AI platform automates conduits modeling. With ENG’s extensive experience in electrical constructable modeling, leveraging Augmenta will provide our clients with faster population of models, allowing Electrical Contractors to claim space before other trades, while allowing simultaneous evaluations of multiple design options in significantly less time, and so, freeing up VDC professionals’ time to add more value to the projects.
“Our goal is to close the gap between the conceptual design of a building and its physical realization,” says Francesco Iorio, co-founder and CEO of Augmenta. “By partnering with ENG, we can extend the reach of our AI technology across electrical and eventually all MEP domains, transforming how contractors, engineers, and architects approach design.”
A More Sustainable Future for Construction
Beyond improving efficiency, this partnership also addresses the growing demand for sustainable design in construction. Current design processes often result in up to 30% of materials being wasted due to misordering or design errors.
By automating key aspects of the design process, Augmenta’s technology reduces this waste, promoting the use of sustainable materials, cutting down on errors, and ultimately contributing to a more environmentally friendly construction process.
“At ENG we envision a future where AI will revolutionize BIM, reducing design time, minimizing errors, and maximizing value added to Clients,” said Axel Krüger, CEO, ENG. “We’re thrilled to bring Augmenta’s state-of-the-art technology to our clients so they can continue to create the world around us efficiently and sustainably.”
