Disperse gives construction project teams actionable data and insights that drive better business decisions. Project management teams need access to the right data in order to keep a project moving forward and keep stakeholders satisfied. But instead, they are drip-fed inaccurate data from time-consuming, manual, onsite reports. So how do construction firms resolve this? By leveraging a building productivity platform that provides accurate, objective data in a matter of minutes. Enter Disperse. Our award-winning platform is a unique combination of Human + AI hybrid technology that tracks what matters and provides reports that are scalable, accessible, and reliable. We detect impending issues with our 360-degree imaging and data-capture technology that allows teams to track what is happening at a construction site at any time, from any place. Our data is easily accessible and actionable through our intuitive UI, designed with and for Project Managers to save time and effort. “This isn’t just about optimising workflows or doing things faster, but rather about changing the way we operate to do things in a more integrated, consistent, and data-driven manner. Disperse gives our project teams the capacity and digital capability to innovate and build new processes.” - Paul Connolly, Director of Technical Services at Mace
