Vico Office is the first purpose‐built construction solution that allows users to "plug in” the BIM authoring application of choice and then perform constructability analysis, quantity takeoff by location, model‐ based scheduling, model‐based cost estimating, and on‐site production control.
The award‐winning virtual construction solution transforms 3D BIMs into information powerhouses integrating construction‐caliber quantities by location, 4D scheduling data, and 5D cost estimating data. The result is a live construction management model that empowers Vico Office users to accurately and rapidly assess the schedule and cost impact of changes, whether those changes occur during preconstruction planning or during the project’s build phase.
General Contractors around the world have used Vico Office to improve the dynamics of their business from time consuming, drawing‐based calculations to automated, model‐based analysis. These progressive builders are successfully differentiating themselves from their competition by delivering a valuable and transparent Owner experience.
The Turner Corporation, ranked #5 on ENR’s Top 400, is a leading construction management firm that deploys Vico’s solutions. Viktor Bullain, VDC Manager at Turner Anaheim, commented, "The Vico scheduling solution, with Flowline technology that fully‐utilizes location‐based management principles in addition to traditional CPM, is working well on our field projects. The result is a better schedule with up to 10% compression and no added risk. This affords us a unique advantage that we offer to Owners – the ability to deliver a project faster without risk to budget or safety. And our experience with the solution in the field in the hands of our knowledgeable operations personnel has been phenomenal.
Our teams are enjoying tremendous success with it. Now we can turn our attention to model‐based estimating and tying the two processes together to continue to utilize the advances in Vico Office.”
