SPAR 2004 is the first industry event focused exclusively on using the newest laser scanning and related technologies to drive down project rework cost, compress schedules, and reduce project execution risk for process manufacturing, civil infrastructure, transportation, offshore construction and architectural capital projects.
Project managers and engineering managers who need to:
-
Drive revamp project rework costs below 1% from current 5-10% rates
-
Manage design and as-built data with both 2D and 3D systems
-
Minimize public disruption and inconvenience
-
Improve bid quality and lower risk
-
Reduce construction litigation expense
-
Drive out fabrication errors and expense
-
Reduce facility outage and shutdown time
-
Control quality of design work from high-value centers
-
Maintain high safety standards
-
Specify laser scanning on their next projects
…and asset and facility owners who need to crack the code on getting and maintaining cost-effective 3D data for operations and maintenance…
…will find the agenda of SPAR 2004 focuses directly on these issues.
Laser scanning of existing conditions hasn’t been perfected yet – there are lots of ways to go wrong, and horror stories about botched jobs abound. That said, some savvy owner and contractor organizations have honed work processes that let them get high efficiency from the large and somewhat unwieldy data sets produced by laser scanners.
Spar Point Research has spent six months documenting case after case of successful implementations. We’ve launched SPAR 2004 to provide a forum for industry leaders, both practitioners and suppliers, to share this experience and to help improve awareness and understanding of how project managers, asset managers, surveyors and engineering discipline leaders from civil engineering firms, process manufacturing plants, industrial manufacturing plants, offshore construction and infrastructure, and defense and security organizations can develop their own processes to profit from these advances.
