Project Overview: Development of four professional-grade baseball fields that required exceptional precision in grading and efficient earthwork operations. This project represented a significant advancement in our use of technology with the first implementation of drone scanning for progress tracking and validation. The project’s complexity demanded careful coordination with multiple trades while maintaining strict deadlines, showcasing our ability to adapt construction sequencing to accelerate the overall project timeline while maintaining the highest quality standards.


Services Provided:

  • Complete earthwork
  • Drainage systems installation
  • Utility infrastructure

Innovation & Technology: First implementation of drone scanning technology to compare actual site conditions with engineering files, allowing for precise tracking of earth movement progress and verification of engineering calculations.


Challenge & Solution: To maintain the overall project schedule, our team adjusted the typical construction sequence, completing earthwork on the fields first, then installing utilities within the fields before finishing earthwork on the parking areas. This allowed other subcontractors to begin their work on the fields while we continued site development elsewhere.


Results:

  • Significantly ahead of schedule on earthwork completion
  • Validated our production rates through drone technology, confirming our previous manual tracking methods
  • Advanced the overall project timeline, with 80% of the entire project completed by the time our utility work was finished
  • Enhanced confidence in our bidding process and production capabilities
