The life of an Engineering Consultant can be very rewarding, as you help your clients solve complex problems and bring innovative ideas to life.
But let's face it, you've got one of the toughest jobs out there. You're constantly under high pressure to deliver quality work despite often having to deal with tight deadlines, insufficient budgets, lack of resources and inadequate project information.
In order to have any chance at success, you need efficiency and good communication
This isn't as easy as it sounds

You also need to start projects with quality information
The first step is usually going through as-builts
But can they be trusted?
"Contractors who provide quality as-constructed records are in the minority."
CM eJournal:
As-built Problems &
Proposed Solutions
"When as-built or record drawings are found, they are of widely varying levels of quality, completeness, and reliability."
ES Engineering Systems:
Are Your As-built Markups
Appropriately Marked-up?
"30% of data is lost during an average construction project leaving as-builts incomplete."

6 Next Level Strategies
to Improve As-builts
Not being able to trust as-builts, you often need to visit the site to verify their accuracy and collect missing information. But the tools at your disposal are inadequate to convey proper site context and are prone to human error.
Other factors that contribute to human error
