    Oculo acts as a centralised hub where the ‘true’ project progress can be accessed and viewed by all stakeholders. This means architects, engineers, and contractors can work together seamlessly, reducing communication gaps and ensuring everyone is working from the same accurate information. Issues raised from the field or by stakeholders within the Oculo platform automatically flow through in to the chosen CDE/field management tools.
  2. Enhanced Data Accuracy
    With Oculo's integration, information captured, and changes made in one platform are instantly reflected across all linked systems. Stakeholders have access to clear and instant evidence around the ‘as-built’ situation on site, should any element on the project be queried.
  3. Cost and Time Savings
    By automating imagery and associated site data capture, Oculo helps cut down on administrative tasks and the potential for human error. This leads to significant time savings and cost reductions. Moreover, timely access to accurate project information helps in identifying issues early, preventing costly delays and ensuring compliance.

Oculo's integration with Autodesk BIM 360, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and Viewpoint is designed for seamless interoperability with Oculo, continuously synchronises data between systems. All information from site walks, highlighted issues or captured asset data are instantly fed back in to the chosen CDE/field management platform to keep all involved up to date.

In summary, Oculo's integration with Autodesk BIM 360, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and Viewpoint empowers construction professionals to achieve their collaboration, data accuracy, cost savings, and time-saving goals. By creating a unified and efficient ecosystem, Oculo simplifies complex construction workflows and sets the stage for successful projects in the ever-evolving construction industry.
